Marvel Studios Teases Chris Hemsworth MCU Return (And Vanessa Kirby & Anthony Mackie Are Involved)
Marvel Studios teased us with something Chris Hemsworth first thing this morning, but it became so much more than that. The studio took to Instagram to showcase a director's chair with the words 'Chris Hemsworth' on the back. Otherwise, we only saw a dark room and heard some strange atmospheric music. It was a lot of sudden excitement for a Wednesday morning, but if it meant Chris Hemsworth would return to the MCU, we were interested to hear more. It turns out, though, more than just Hemsworth was involved in the action.
There were no initial clues as to what exactly this MCU and Chris Hemsworth collaboration would be. But as we continued to check out the Instagram Live, found here, the plot thickened and thickened. We initially thought this could this be an announcement that Hemsworth would return to the MCU for Thor 5. Or maybe that he would join the vast list of MCU heroes and actors announced for the upcoming Avengers: Secret Wars and Doomsday. But it seems like it's much beyond that. Before we knew it, a chair for Vanessa Kirby came onto the scene. Kirby, of course, plays Invisible Woman/Sue Storm in The Fantastic Four. Additionally, a chair for Anthony Mackie joined in the fun next. And then one for Sebastian Stan.
It seems to us like Marvel Studios is announcing the MCU's new Avengers team for Avengers: Doomsday. We don't know how many more folks will join the team, we guess it depends on just how long this Instagram Live runs for.
We'll let you know as soon as we do. We are kind of said that it's not Thor 5 though, for some time a question of whether Thor 5 would come to pass has been up in the air, and we would have been pro that announcement as well.

Chris Evans is bummed he is missing out on all the fun in 'Avengers: Doomsday.' In a recent conversation with ScreenRant, Evans, who played Captain America across eight MCU films, was asked if he still stays in contact with his former Marvel collaborators, considering his exclusion from the highly anticipated 'Avengers: Doomsday.'

'It's where Pedro [Pascal] is right now. I mean, it's sad to be away. It's sad to not be back with the band, but I'm sure they're doing something incredible, and I'm sure it's going to be that much harder when it comes out, and you feel like you weren't invited to the party.' In 'End Game,' Evans' Captain America ages out of the star-spangled shield after traveling back in time to return the Infinity Stones. He decides to stay in the past with his true love, Peggy Carter, and in the present day, passes the Captain America moniker to Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson. While Evans is staying behind, his 'Avengers' co-stars Chris Hemsworth and Robert Downey Jr. are returning for 'Doomsday.' Hemsworth will return as Thor, but Downey will come back as the titular super villain Doctor Doom, instead of Iron Man. Other familiar MCU faces returning for 'Doomsday' include Sebastian Stan as the Winter Soldier; Paul Rudd as Ant-Man; Tom Hiddleston as Loki; Letitia Wright as Shuri and Mackie as Captain America. While originally set for release on May 1, 2026, 'Doomsday' was recently delayed to Dec. 18, 2026. Its sequel, 'Avengers: Secret Wars,' was also pushed. First slated to premiere on May 7, 2027, the film will now hit theaters Dec. 17, 2027.
