Leaked set photos from the production of Avengers: Doomsday shared on X (formerly Twitter) have shown three cast members together in their respective costumes. Although the backdrop of the set is unfortunately a blue screen, the photos still reveal some interesting details for fans.
The images show Joaquin Torres/Falcon (Danny Ramirez, Top Gun: Maverick) from Sam Wilson/Captain America’s (Anthony Mackie, Altered Carbon) new Avengers team, John Walker/US Agent (Wyatt Russell, Lodge 49) from the newly-renamed New Avengers, and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach, The Bear) from The Fantastic Four.
Other than Moss-Bachrach, who is in a mocap suit, Ramirez and Russell are both outfitted in their respective characters’ superhero costumes. It is particularly notable that Ramirez’s Falcon appears to have made a full physical recovery and repaired his suit since the events of Captain America: Brave New World (2025). Meanwhile, Russell’s US Agent can be seen wearing the same black beret that he wears in the post-credits scene of Thunderbolts*.
The surroundings of the set, featuring large curved windows and a semi-circular retro-futuristic control panel, seem to indicate that this may be a spaceship, perhaps more specifically, The Fantastic Four’s spaceship that can be seen in both the post-credits scene of Thunderbolts* as well as in the trailer of The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Given these details, fans have theorised that the scene in this set leak photo may be happening right after the events of the Thunderbolts* post-credits scene, wherein the New Avengers and the Avengers may come face-to-face with The Fantastic Four for the first time.
Eagle-eyed fans have also been quick to spot a black and silver shoe in the bottom right corner of the photo, and some are already theorising it is Letitia Wright’s (Death on the Nile) Black Panther. Given that Wright’s Shuri had previously interacted with members of the Avengers before taking on the mantle of the Black Panther, she’s possibly present in this scene to aid or represent the Avengers.
While details about the plot of Avengers: Doomsday remain tightly kept under wraps, the leaked set photos seem to corroborate a plot leak of the film’s first act. At the very least, these leaks tease some interesting interactions from the massive crossover movie event set to happen in 2026.
With the tension between the New Avengers and Sam Wilson’s Avengers brewing at the end of Thunderbolts*, fans can only look forward to The Fantastic Four: First Steps for answers on how this interaction between the three teams will happen and how it will all shake out.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps will take its first steps into theatres in Singapore on 24 July 2025.
Conversation with Ting Wei is like chatting with a weird AI bot programmed only with One Piece lore and theories, sitcom quotes and other miscellaneous pop culture references. When he’s not sleeping, he’s highly likely reading manga. In fact, the only thing he reads more than manga is the Bible, and it’s honestly pretty close.
