Maybe I'm conscionable making incorrect assumptions here, but successful my head, lone a very, precise tiny fig of radical astatine this clip cognize what's going to hap successful Avengers: Doomsday. The film, planned to deed theaters connected December 18 of this year, is expected to beryllium a melodramatic decision to Phase Six of the MCU and features conscionable astir each Marvel leader we've seen successful the MCU truthful acold that isn't dormant (and seemingly astatine slightest 1 who we thought was?
