Avengers: Doomsday’s Magneto Tease Is Bigger Than You Think (MCU Theory Explained)

by

As a huge Marvel fan, I’m really excited about a recent hint regarding “Avengers: Doomsday.” It seems like they’re bringing in some major X-Men characters from the old Fox movies, and we just learned a little something about Magneto’s role in the upcoming MCU film. Honestly, I think this could be a much bigger deal than people are currently realizing – it feels like they’re setting up something massive!

Ian McKellen, who plays Magneto, accidentally revealed a detail about his role in the upcoming Avengers movie. Although it seemed like a small piece of information, some fans believe this reveal could hint at a much bigger surprise character appearing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Ian McKellen’s Recent Avengers: Doomsday Teases For Magneto Explained

Okay, so I just heard something wild. Sir Ian McKellen, in a couple of recent interviews, pretty much confirmed a massive spoiler for the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday film. He casually mentioned – twice! – that Magneto will be responsible for the destruction of New Jersey. It sounds like Marvel was already aware he was going to say it, almost like they let it slip on purpose. Either way, brace yourselves, Garden State residents – it seems things are about to get magnetic…and messy!

We know Magneto is planning an attack on New Jersey, which leads us to wonder: why New Jersey specifically within the Marvel Cinematic Universe? There’s actually just one key reason…

Could Magneto’s MCU New Jersey Attack Be Connected To Ms. Marvel?

If Magneto were to attack within the main Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline (Earth-616), it’s important to remember that New Jersey is where Kamala Khan, also known as Ms. Marvel, lives. She was recently working with Kate Bishop’s Hawkeye to try and form a new team of young superheroes, the Young Avengers.

The Disney+ series Ms. Marvel ended with a hint that the character is a mutant—possessing the X-gene—rather than an Inhuman, a change that’s now reflected in the comics too. This raises questions about what comes next, like whether Magneto might be searching for her, or even protecting her from a larger danger, possibly Doctor Doom as played by Robert Downey Jr.?

Even though Iman Vellani, who plays Ms. Marvel, hasn’t been officially announced for either ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ or ‘Secret Wars’, we can expect surprises – there will definitely be characters and actors involved that haven’t been revealed yet.

Magneto causing chaos in New Jersey promises to be an incredible action scene, and it’s just one of the many big moments we can expect in Avengers: Doomsday when it comes out later this year.

Avengers: Doomsday is set to release in theaters on December 18th from Marvel Studios.
