HE Is Back in Avengers: Doomsday and Marvel’s Playing the Hits Again

HE Is Back in Avengers: Doomsday and Marvel’s Playing the Hits Again

Spoiler warning up top: Frank reacts to the Avengers: Doomsday teaser that’s currently playing in theaters and the big headline that comes with it, Chris Evans returning as Steve Rogers. The hype is real, but the conversation gets complicated fast, especially when you zoom out and ask what this says about Marvel’s confidence in the post Endgame era. Frank also unpacks the idea (and the risk) of Doomsday being framed as a direct sequel to Endgame, and what a “soft reboot” after Secret Wars could mean for the MCU’s future.

  • 00:00:00 Spoiler warning and initial reaction to the Avengers: Doomsday teaser and Chris Evans returning

  • 00:00:16 The excitement vs. the bigger worry: what this says about Marvel after Endgame

  • 00:00:32 Russo Brothers calling Doomsday a direct Endgame sequel and what gets left behind

  • 00:00:46 “Soft reboot” talk after Secret Wars and how Marvel rebuilds trust going forward

  • 00:01:14 Does this undercut Sam Wilson and the newer era of the MCU?

  • 00:01:56 Listener comments requested for the next episode

  • Chris Evans returning as Steve Rogers hits hard emotionally for a lot of fans.

  • The bigger concern is what this signals about Marvel’s confidence in newer characters and newer phases.

  • Positioning Doomsday as a direct sequel to Endgame raises questions about how much of Phase 4 and 5 will matter.

  • The “soft reboot after Secret Wars” idea makes comic sense, but it also feels like Marvel resetting the board to safer territory.

  • There’s a real tension between hardcore fan concerns and what mainstream audiences will likely love without overthinking it.

  • If Steve comes back, it opens a big conversation about legacy, leadership, and whether Sam Wilson gets pushed aside.

  • “Hell yeah, Chris Evans is back as Steve Rogers.”

  • “This means that basically Marvel doesn’t trust anything they put out after Endgame.”

  • “It’s not like Steve Rogers doesn’t always come back in the comic books.”

New Bond?

New Bond?

Speculations about the next James Bond are rife, with Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Lucien Laviscount among the favorites for the role. Taylor-Johnson reportedly met with producer Barbara Broccoli and impressed her in a “secret audition” for the role, although he may become “too famous” due to his upcoming roles in the Marvel and Fall Guy films. Meanwhile, Laviscount has caught Broccoli’s eye due to his talent, good looks, and recent popularity from his role in Emily in Paris. However, Laviscount’s past appearance on Big Brother in 2011 may work against him. Broccoli has described the next James Bond as a “reinvention,” and the requirements for the role include being British, male, and in the 30s.

This was done in order to avoid having the younger cast members age out of their roles, as happened with the show Stranger Things. The producer of the Avatar films, Jon Landau, also revealed that upcoming films will feature new cultures and clans on Pandora, and that characters introduced in one film will continue to be a part of the story in future films. Avatar: The Way of Water has been successful at the box office, earning over $500 million worldwide.

In an interview with AP Entertainment, Bruckheimer said that “we’re still working on it” and that “nothing’s definitive yet,” but that the team was “continuing to take little baby steps” towards writing a screenplay. Depp has previously said that “nothing on this earth” would convince him to return to the role. Bruckheimer also discussed plans for a female-led spinoff of the franchise starring Margot Robbie, saying that the script for the film “will come forward at a certain point” but that the team is currently working on another Pirates of the Caribbean film first. There is no confirmed release date for either Pirates of the Caribbean 6 or the spinoff.
