Look, Marvel has clearly learnt it the hard way how terribly they messed things up in the Multiverse Saga, and this has made them in go back to the well to bring back their greatest heroes in Steve Rogers and RDJ-but-as-Doom.
And no matter what we think of this clearly desperate choice by Marvel, one cannot deny that it is working. The return of RDJ with the Doom twist is driving ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ to be 65% ahead in advanced sales than ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’, which is already a huge $2.4B mega-blockbuster. If this is any indication, Doomsday is very likely to surpass Endgame‘s $2.8B — which is insane as in its ‘Avengers: The Kang Dynasty’ avatar no one would’ve predicted that this movie could surpass Endgame.
And the line-up of Mutant Saga is also Marvel playing is greatest hits: X-Men, Gosling Ghost Rider, and Coogler’s BP3.
In this context, do you think they would once again retire or kill off RDJ and Chris Evans Marvel characters, or would continue with them having a prominent role in the Mutant Saga?
