A Reboot Angle Already Teased
This builds on a previous preview that suggested *Avengers: Doomsday* could be a fresh start for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Fans are eagerly awaiting the next Avengers film, ‘Avengers: Doomsday,’ which is scheduled to come out in one year. Seven years after the blockbuster ‘Endgame,’ the Marvel Cinematic Universe is heading towards another huge event. In a surprising move, Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the MCU – this time as the villain Doctor Doom! The directing team behind ‘Infinity War’ and ‘Endgame,’ the Russo brothers, are back to lead the project. According to Joe Russo, it will be “the most epic two-part story in the last decade, with lots of characters and connected storylines.” Get ready to enter a new chapter in the MCU!

What It Means for the MCU
The continued emphasis on Robert Downey Jr. potentially playing Doctor Doom suggests Marvel is counting on his involvement to revive excitement after some recent movies and shows haven’t performed as well.
The talk of a “new era” and a “major crisis” indicates that *Avengers: Doomsday* will kick off the MCU’s next big story arc. This could both refresh the universe and bring together plotlines from previous movies.
Directed again by the Russo brothers and promoted by Marvel as a massive, two-part story, *Avengers: Doomsday* is expected to be the biggest Marvel Cinematic Universe event since *Endgame*.
