A new Avengers: Doomsday rumor has popped up, potentially solidifying Tom Holland‘s status for the upcoming movie and whether or not his Spider-Man will appear.
What is the latest Avengers: Doomsday rumor?
According to a new rumor from noted insider Daniel Richtman, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man will not be appearing in Avengers: Doomsday. Richtman notes that Holland is set to have a “huge role” in the film’s sequel, Avengers: Secret Wars, but is not set to be involved in Doomsday as of this time.
However, that doesn’t necessarily mean Spider-Man won’t will be in the movie. Many rumors have suggested that some form of the iconic Marvel character will show up in the movie, whether it be Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield‘s version of Peter Parker.
As of now, pretty much nothing is known about their status in the movie, though, and everything is mostly just conjecture for now. Still, Richtman’s report does seem to close the door on Holland appearing Doomsday, although there is still time for Marvel to surprise fans ahead of the film’s December 18, 2026 premiere.
The cast for the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday is going to be massive. So far, several major stars from the MCU have been confirmed to be in the movie, including Chris Hemsworth’s Thor, Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby’s Invisible Woman/Sue Storm, Anthony Mackie’s Captain America, Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier, Letitia Wright’s Shuri/Black Panther, and Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man.
More names for the upcoming movie include Wyatt Russell’s U.S. Agent/John Walker, Tenoch Huerta’s Namor, Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s The Thing/Ben Grimm, Simu Liu’s Shang-Chi, Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, Kelsey Grammer’s Dr. Hank McCoy/Beast, Lewis Pullman’s Bob/Sentry, Danny Ramirez’s Joaquin Torres/Falcon, Joseph Quinn’s Johnny Storm/Human Torch, David Harbour’s Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian, Winston Duke‘s M’Baku, Hannah John-Kamen‘s Ava Starr/Ghost, and Tom Hiddleston‘s Loki.
Several X-Men characters are also coming back for the upcoming movie, including Patrick Stewart‘s Charles Xavier, Ian McKellen‘s Magneto, Alan Cumming‘s Nightcrawler, Rebecca Romijn‘s Mystique, James Marsden‘s Cyclops, and Channing Tatum‘s Gambit.
