Let's dive into the details.

Avengers: Doomsday Concept Art Floodgates Open: Battleworld Doctor Doom and Returning Heroes Galore!

An artist working at Marvel well at least they were employed at the time posted a bunch of concept images for Avengers: Doomsday. These images are like a treasure trove for MCU fans spilling secrets about the movie's direction and characters involved. The artist Mushk Rizvi took down the artwork pretty quickly but the internet never forgets right? These images are everywhere now .

So what did the concept art reveal? Buckle up because it's a lot. It looks like Avengers: Doomsday might be introducing Battleworld. Battleworld is a place created after realities collide ruled by the ultimate baddie Doctor Doom. And guess who's playing Doom? Robert Downey Jr. is reportedly back in the MCU but not as Iron Man as Doctor Doom! Talk about a twist.

The art suggests our heroes will be scattered across this Battleworld some seemingly not even remembering their old lives. We are talking potential appearances from some major MCU players.

The leaked concept art hints at a massive cast for Avengers: Doomsday. Here are some of the characters that are heavily rumored or suggested to appear based on the leaks:

  1. Doctor Doom (Robert Downey Jr.): RDJ back in the MCU but as the villain! Leading Battleworld.
  2. Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) and She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany): Seemingly on Battleworld possibly with Banner's son Skaar.
  3. Young Avengers: Ms. Marvel Cassie Lang Kate Bishop Wiccan and Speed appearing as a team.
  4. Star-Lord (Chris Pratt) and Wong (Benedict Wong): Team up with the Young Avengers in a bar scene.
  5. Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh): Potentially capturing characters for Doctor Doom.
  6. Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch): Appearing alongside Doom and Yelena.
  7. Black Panther: Concept art shows a new Black Panther possibly a variant or even T'Challa resurrected via CGI (controversial!).

Of course it's just concept art and things can change. But this gives us a pretty good idea of the scale and scope Marvel is aiming for with Avengers: Doomsday. It looks EPIC.

The big question everyone is asking is: was this leak on purpose? Disney is usually super strict about keeping Marvel secrets under wraps. So why aren't they in full damage control mode taking down every image online? Their silence is definitely raising eyebrows.

Some theories are floating around. Maybe Disney is actually okay with the leak. Could this be a sneaky way to build hype and generate buzz for Avengers: Doomsday without officially revealing anything? Or maybe they are testing the waters seeing how fans react to these concepts. It's like a trial balloon to gauge audience interest.

Another possibility is that Disney simply can't control the internet. Once something is out there especially something this juicy it's impossible to contain it. Maybe they are just accepting the leak and rolling with it. Whatever the reason Disney's reaction or lack thereof is definitely adding to the mystery.

With all this multiverse and reality collapsing talk some fans are wondering if Avengers: Doomsday might be setting up a soft reboot for the MCU . Rumors have been swirling about a potential reboot especially leading into Avengers: Secret Wars the movie coming after Doomsday.

Marvel executive Brad Winderbaum was asked about the reboot possibility. He downplayed the idea of a full reboot saying it's hard to "fully reboot anything" especially a "living breathing fictional universe" with so much fan investment already. He hinted that a full reset is unlikely because of the established storylines and fan love for existing MCU stories. However he did not directly address the idea of a soft reboot which leaves the door open for some kind of shift or change after Secret Wars.

Black Panther CGI Controversy? Fan Worries About T'Challa's Potential Return

One aspect of the leaked concept art is causing some serious debate and concern: the image of Black Panther. The artwork appears to show a Black Panther in a regal costume that looks similar to T'Challa's. This has sparked worries about Marvel potentially using CGI to bring back Chadwick Boseman's T'Challa. Chadwick Boseman's tragic passing is still felt deeply by fans and Marvel has stated they would not recast T'Challa out of respect.

Bringing back Boseman via CGI would be a very sensitive issue. Some fans are concerned it could be seen as disrespectful or exploitative. There's also the question of whether CGI resurrection really serves the story or if it's just for shock value. Some speculate the Black Panther in the art could be a variant perhaps T'Chaka or even N'Jobu from another universe. Others worry Marvel might be considering a CGI T'Challa despite previous statements. It's a delicate situation and fans are definitely watching closely to see how Marvel handles the Black Panther legacy moving forward.
