A new Avengers: Doomsday leak teases a possible connection to either an MCU Disney+ show or Wolverine, maybe even both.
Note: Spoilers follow.
Avengers: Doomsday set leak
In what is claimed to be an Avengers: Doomsday set video leak – which could actually be a Marvel PR stunt – a fan is claiming they broke into the set of Avengers: Doomsday in the UK.
There’s nothing much really shown except for one set piece, which makes me think it’s all a setup to promote the movie. The fan is even shown walking past the crew and getting a drink, all the while “masked” and walking around with a camera (LOL).
Anyway, what is of interest is that apparently Avengers: Doomsday will feature the fictional Marvel city of Madripoor, which in the Marvel Comics is a lawless Southeast Asian island known for its divide between the wealthy elite of Hightown and the criminal underworld of Lowtown.
Wolverine connection: Patch
How it could tie to Wolverine is that Logan often operated there under the alias “Patch” and got involved in the island’s criminal underworld.
Recently in Deadpool & Wolverine, they teased Hugh Jackman as the “Patch” variant (pictured above). Maybe Patch makes his way into Avengers: Doomsday?
More from Sharon Carter
Madripoor was also directly featured in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, where the former SHIELD Agent Sharon Carter (Emily VanCamp) became the criminal leader of Madripoor, known as the Power Broker, and held Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) and Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) there.
The Russos actually wanted to feature Emily VanCamp in Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame and explore more of her story but didn’t due to the amount of characters. Her story continued in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, so maybe the Russos are bringing her back in Doomsday. They first introduced her in Captain America: The Winter Soldier and featured her in Civil War.
Welcome to Battleworld?
So the theory about Avengers: Doomsday is that various parts of the Multiverse are brought to Battleworld. According to the leaked video, Madripoor might be one of those.
Another possibility is that maybe characters go back to Madripoor for some reason. Confirmed cast members include both Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan. However, both Emily VanCamp and Hugh Jackman have not been officially announced. Robert Downey Jr. and Marvel have teased that the entire cast hasn’t been announced, so additional actors and characters are likely.
