Did Marvel have the perfect plan? A new rumor seems to reveal the studio’s scrapped Avengers plans for Kang.
Marvel has tried its best to scrub any trace of Kang from its films following the conviction of Jonathan Majors late last year. However, given recent announcements about the studio’s plans for the Avengers franchise, Marvel fans have started to look back through any old rumors they could to piece together what the the original plan was for the films.
Luckily, it seems a new rumor has all the answers. Scooper MyTimeToShineHello revealed what they believe to be Marvel’s original plans for the next two Avengers movies. Apparently, the TVA was in search of the anchor beings established in Deadpool and Wolverine to team up and stop the Council of Kangs, which included some shocking and familiar faces.
“In [Avengers: Kang Dynasty], the TVA began gathering Anchor Beings from across the Multiverse, believing they are the only ones powerful enough to defeat the Council of Kangs. Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield were the Anchors for their respective realities, while Tom Holland’s Spider-Man served as the Anchor for Earth-616.”
“The movie was intended to be smaller in scope compared to SECRET WARS, focusing more on Holland’s Peter Parker, Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine, and other Anchors like Nic Cage’s Ghost Rider.”
“The plan was for all of them to ultimately fail, leading to the collapse of the Multiverse and Kang’s creation of Battleworld. This would then set the stage for SECRET WARS, where other MCU characters and additional Multiverse figures would converge on Battleworld.”
Marvel’s New Plan For The Avengers
It’s certainly an interesting concept that Kang would be the one to create Battleworld. However, many have pointed out that this plot may have been seen as stale due to how similar the major beats are to the last two Avengers films. While not much is known about Marvel’s new plans, it seems Marvel will be taking some major swings to fix the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Namely, Marvel is officially bringing Robert Downey Jr. back to play Doctor Doom to help fill the void created by the absence of Kang, renaming the next film to Avengers: Doomsday. It’s unclear exactly what role the character will play in the film, but it’s more likely than not that he’ll be taking a similar approach in trying to conquer the multiverse.
Avengers: Doomsday is set to hit theaters in May 2026. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
