**Headline: ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Secrets Teased in New Q&A: Maguire’s Role, Surprise Characters, and Doom’s Plan Revealed!**
Marvel fans are buzzing after the first part of The Cosmic Circus’s September 2025 Q&A with insider Alex Perez dropped, offering tantalizing hints about the upcoming “Avengers: Doomsday.”
Perez fielded questions from Patreon supporters and Discord members, careful not to reveal too much about the closely guarded secrets surrounding the film. Key takeaways include:
* **Full Cast Reveal:** Don’t expect a full cast list until the premiere, with Marvel holding back on some new, old, and legacy characters.
* **Tobey Maguire:** While officially mum, Perez speculates Maguire’s Spider-Man will offer insight from his universe, heavily involved in the final incursion.
* **Valentina’s Whereabouts:** Don’t expect to see Valentina Allegra de Fontaine in “Doomsday”.
* **Surprise Appearances:** Expect unannounced characters, many of whom have been rumored by scoopers.
* **Loki’s Importance:** All those centuries of physics, quantum mechanics, and learning everything OB knows has to pay off for something.
* **Spider-Man’s Role:** Similar to that in “Avengers: Infinity War”.
* **Doom’s Power:** It will rely on genius intellect, multiverse knowledge, manipulation, and magic.
* **Unexpected Pairings:** Fans can look forward to Red Guardian teaming up with The Thing.
* **Secret Filming:** Unannounced actors were recently filming scenes in Australia.
* **Paul Rudd’s Involvement:** Yes, Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man is involved, despite rumors.
* **Incursion Culprits:** Steve Rogers is among several characters that caused incursions.
* **Multiple Versions of Peggy Carter:** Hayley Atwell could be portraying both Peggy Carter and Captain Carter, depending on the movie.
* **Chris Evans Future:** Don’t count Steve Rogers out just yet.
* **Wanda Variant:** There’s a possible introduction of a Wanda variant from an X-Men universe where Magneto rules Genosha.
* **Shang-Chi’s Role:** He may feel a bit out of place because it’ll be his first time being in a large group of super-powered heroes.
* **Team Dynamics:** The New Avengers will fight together, but with interesting character pairings.
* **McKellen’s Magneto:** Desperate for a homeland for his people.
Most strikingly, Perez teased Doom’s motivations, framing him as a character trying to stop the incursions destroying realities, echoing the pattern of the Russos’s earlier films with antagonists having valid motivations.
Perez noted this is just part one of the Q&A, and encouraged fans to support The Cosmic Circus’s Patreon for access to the private Discord, the next Q&A, and other exclusive content. Part 2 of the Q&A is due in a few days.
