Script Said to Be Scrapped

Based on the rumors surrounding the cast of Thunderbolts, YouTuber Doomcock has been sharing updates about potential issues with the upcoming film “Avengers: Doomsday.” He claims that the entire script for the movie has reportedly been discarded.

As a passionate cinephile, I’ve learned that sometimes scripts can be tough nuts to crack. In this case, it seems like the original writers of the “Doomsday” movie were faced with quite a challenge, as the latest draft of the script didn’t live up to expectations. Consequently, they found themselves in a situation where they had to step away from the project. Now, fresh talent is being brought on board to breathe new life into the storyline.

Downey Reportedly Takes Control

Doomcock points to Robert Downey Jr. as the key figure behind the shakeup:

According to reports, it seems that Robert Downey Jr. is the one making this statement. He’s expressed his intentions to step back from the film unless Disney decides to revise a certain aspect of it.

Why was the script rejected?

The YouTube analyst notes that the screenplay for “Avengers: Doomsday” notably emphasized the female characters within the Marvel Cinatic Universe (MCU), a development that has reportedly generated significant controversy for Kevin Feige following “Endgame.

Based on these reports, an early draft of the film featured a strong female presence. It was planned to have a female counterpart for every male character in the movie.

Deadpool and Reynolds’ Role

It’s reported that Doomcock claims to have received information from insiders, suggesting that the writers of Deadpool are being consulted to improve the script.

As of now, there’s no official script available. The previous one, unfortunately, didn’t make it through, but there are whispers that Disney might enlist the writers from Deadpool to pen the new script.

If the gossip is true, it suggests that Ryan Reynolds and Deadpool could play significant roles in “Avengers: Doomsday”.

Avengers Trilogy Talk

Ultimately, Doomcock suggests that Marvel could be planning something even more substantial, aligning with recent whispers, and expresses hope for eventual improvements.
