Kevin Feige confirms 'Avengers: Doomsday' will unite heroes against Doctor Doom, filming starts soon — Fans joke we won’t see it before 2027

Kevin Feige has revealed that Avengers: Doomsday will see the Avengers, Wakandans, Fantastic Four, Thunderbolts, and the traditional X-Men join forces to battle Doctor Doom. He made the revelation in a pre-recorded presentation at CinemaCon 2025.

As reported by ComicBook.com, Kevin Feige said that production for Avengers: Doomsday will start in a few days. He added that the full cast has not been revealed yet since some actors are still negotiating their contracts.

Kevin Feige also confirmed that Doctor Doom would be the main villain of Avengers: Doomsday. The movie is said to be based on the Doomwar comic book series, where Doctor Doom invades Wakanda and fights heroes including the X-Men.

This release shows that the Avengers and the X-Men will come together to fight a common enemy instead of each other.

Now, let's get to the good stuff — the online jokes!

Some folks are joking they've only just started to shoot Avengers: Doomsday, so how on earth are they going to even get the movie done by 2026.

Others are speculating about who will even be part of the Avengers squad, while still others are cracking jokes about Doctor Doom having to battle so many superheroes.

Social media reacts as Avengers: Doomsday will see Doctor Doom fight multiple superheroes

Given that the shooting has yet to begin, some users are convinced that Avengers: Doomsday won't see the light of day until 2027.

Others picture in jest Doctor Doom getting belted by the Avengers and other superheroes. Meanwhile, some enthusiasts are not so convinced that Wanda is actually dead, inquiring as to where their favorite Scarlet Witch is. Bro, she is dead.

A user, @richmugen, made light of Kevin Feige's announcement, saying:

"they still haven’t started filming??? yeah this shi ain’t coming out till 2027."

This is how people imagine Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday:

"They JUMPING that mf Doom 😭"

Another user, @pnkthereup, asked a to-the-point question:

"okay but where is wanda?"

Next was the flood of spoilers. Some fans believe the filmmakers are giving out too much, which will ruin the surprise for everyone. Others are joking about how Avengers: Doomsday will just be another good-versus-evil showdown, where evil gets vanquished, and everyone lives happily ever after.

User @scrit_ suggested:

"They need to stop telling everybody what its abt."

Another user, @PSYCHOV3N0M, made fun of the announcement, saying:

"NEWS FLASH: Good guys vs a main Bad guy. WHAT A SHOCKING SPOILER. 🤣🤣🤣"

User @Gerin_XXL predicted:

"Doom gonna lose. And none of the superheroes will fall. Boo."

A user, @SenpaiRogue, roasted, saying:

"Marvel couldn’t even get Halle Berry back as Storm for Avengers Doomsday but they expect us to care about this X-Men reunion?"

And then, the roast gang showed up. Users were making jokes that with so many characters in Avengers: Doomsday, they'll likely each get a few seconds of screen time.

Some fans were commenting on how, in the past, Marvel would set up storylines across multiple movies before bringing it all together in one big movie. Now, it seems like they're hurrying and just attempting to ride fan nostalgia.

User @thewizmusic joked:

"Everyone is getting 3.5 seconds of screen time each."

One user dropped an infamous Drake meme to sum up the situation:

Meanwhile, a user, @_SirAntMan_, added:

"Ya'll remember when every MCU movie slowly built into the first Avengers, and then every one after teased Infinity War until it finally happened? They're not doing that with Doomsday so far. Sounds like a jumbled fanservice mess."

Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released on May 1, 2026.
