It’s shaping up to be a massive couple of years for the MCU!
Who is potentially returning in Avengers: Doomsday?
According to a new report from industry insider James Mack on X, Benedict Wong will reprise his role as Wong in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie. The report suggests Wong will be tasked with preventing a collision between universes, showcasing the full extent of his magical abilities as the MCU’s Sorcerer Supreme.
