A Sneak Peek into the Epic Return of Over 60 MCU Characters in Avengers 5
There is exciting news for Marvel fans as leaks and rumors continue to swirl about the highly anticipated Avengers 5 flick. With reports of two founding members returning and a surprise return of fan-favorite Loki, it seems like Earth’s mightiest heroes are gearing up for their biggest battle yet.
According to recent reports from Deadline, “more than 60 MCU characters could reprise their roles” in what is being referred to as “one of Marvel’s largest productions to date” and an “ensemble feature”. This news has fans humming with excitement, as the dynamic team is sure to bring their unique blend of strength and humor to the squad once again.
The next iteration of the Avengers will supposedly find the super-team on more “equal footing”, in contrast to previous entries featuring the core six: Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner).
Per the report, the upcoming flick will feature the return of Benedict Cumberbatch, Karen Gillan, Simu Liu, Hemsworth, and Ruffalo. There are still more surprises, though. Let’s not forget about everyone’s favorite trickster, Loki. It has been revealed that a familiar Avengers villain will be making an unexpected appearance to help the heroes in their fight against a new threat.
With Tom Hiddleston reprising his role as Loki, fans can look forward to more mischief and mayhem from the beloved anti-hero.
Shawn Levy in the Director’s Chair: Is He In Talks For Avengers 5?
Well, perhaps the most exhilarating news of all is the directorial choice for Avengers 5. Indeed, we learned from Deadline that Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy is in talks to helm the upcoming Avengers 5, making him Marvel’s “top choice” to bring this epic story to life on the big screen.
According to sources close to the outlet, Levy has not yet responded to Marvel regarding his readiness to assume the responsibility of the director’s role. Until then, the studio will hold meetings with other directors. Nevertheless, Michael Waldron’s recent draft of the script is supposedly what Levy has been given to consider.
According to a different report by THR, Levy declined an offer from Marvel in mid-March to serve as executive producer and director of Netflix’s Stranger Things (the last season), which will air in the upcoming year. But it looks like the studio has pushed back Avengers 5 by a few months, which means Levy can rejoin the fray.
With more than 60 MCU characters reported to make an appearance, Avengers 5 is shaping up to be one of Marvel’s largest productions to date. The ensemble nature of the film promises to put an array of heroes on equal footing, creating a truly epic and unforgettable experience for fans.
So, Earth’s mightiest heroes are ready for whatever challenges come their way.
