We’re getting a new Avengers movie soon. And though the anticipation isn’t anywhere near what the first or even the third Avengers movie was, it’s still kinda fun to see all these characters coming together. Particularly considering this will be the Fantastic Four‘s first time in an Avengers movie, and that the X-Men are now coming.
Plus, Robert Downey Jr. is back, and this time he’s not playing Tony Stark. But is Doom the villain of this tale? And if he is, what are his motivations? Plus, does the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day play a role in what comes next?
There’s still some time to go, and we don’t have all the answers, but here’s all we know:
