Apparently, there’s been talk since 2025 about him potentially appearing in Avengers: Doomsday as the character. When Josh Horowitz asked if he’d even spoken to Kevin Feige about it, Ryan was careful with his answer, saying they have had some discussions, but that it’s a pretty complex situation. Honestly, just knowing they’re talking about it is enough to get me hyped!
