Someone Dropped A Script Online Claiming Its Avengers: Kang Dynasty, And The Scrapped Movie Sounds Bananas

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is known for keeping fans on their toes, thanks to projects hitting theaters and streaming with a Disney+ subscription. The fandom is always looking forward to upcoming Marvel movies, especially crossover projects like The Avengers. Someone "leaked" a script claiming to be a drag of the scrapped movie The Kang Dynasty, and it's pretty bananas. Let's break it all down.
What we know about Avengers: Doomsday is limited, but that developing movie was created as The Kang Dynasty was dropped. This was unprecedented for fans who spent years watching the Marvel movies in order, and was presumably related to Jonathan Majors being fired from the role. If this script that made its way to reddit is legit, there were some big concepts at play before the blockbuster got dropped.
This possible draft for The Kang Dynasty is truly wild from the start. Directly following Ant-Man 3's ending, Jonathan Majors' characters is thrown through the multiverse. Eventually the colosseum of Kangs we saw perform a blood ritual involving Fox's cast of X-Men characters, and things only get crazier from there.
Disney+: from $9.99 a month w/ ad-supported planThe MCU's catalogue and original streaming content are available exclusively on Disney+. Plans start at $9.99 a month for its new ad-supported plan. Alternatively, fans can go ad-free and pay $15.99 a month or save 16% and pre-pay $159.99 for a year.View Deal
Some other highlights from this alleged "leak" include all three Spider-Men once again teaming up, following the wild success of No Way Home. We also get the long-awaited return of Oscar Isaac's Moon Knight, as well as another opportunity for Deadpool and Wolverine to team-up. Given just how much money Deadpool 3 made at the box office, the latter feels pretty much inevitable.
Of course, it's important to take this rumored script with a grain of salt. Marvel's security is notoriously tight, so an entire draft leaking would be a shock. It's also important to note that we're on the eve of April Fool's Day, in which plenty phony reports arrive online. But while anticipation is building for what's to come with Doomsday, there are countless questions about what The Kang Dynasty would have brought us.
When the Creed III actor was fired from the MCU, fans originally debated who could replace Majors as Kang. But instead it seems like the studio is pivoting away from that plot altogether, despite the character's status as the Big Bad being teased throughout Ant-Man 3 and two seasons of Loki.
This alleged leak comes shortly after Marvel announced the cast of Avengers: Doomsday during a long live stream. Fans are finally getting some idea about what might happen in the movie, although the question of what might have occurred in The Kang Dynasty is still in the air. So this possible draft will likely get a ton of eyes on it, especially considering the inclusion of Spider-Man and Deadpool.
Unfortunately, the next Avengers movie isn't on the 2025 movie release list, so we'll hav to wait before we get more answers. First up Thunderbolts* will hit theaters on May 2nd.

The New Marvel Legends Maximum Series Deadpool Lives Up to Those Descriptors

Walk into any store with pop culture merchandise, and you're sure to find something Deadpool. The ultra-popular, potty-mouthed Marvel character is no stranger to all manner of merch from toys and plushes to socks, water bottles, bedsheets, and so much more. Deadpool is, and will continue to be, everywhere. And yet, his new Marvel Legends figure is so good, it still somehow stands head, shoulders, and samurai swords above the rest. Hasbro just revealed the Marvel Legends Maximum Series Deadpool, and it's epic. Six-inch scale, fully articulated, with a posable head, arms, and legs, the figure comes with 24 accessories. Those include 'alternate head, 2 pointer hands, thumbs up, v fingers, 2 fists, 2 grip hands, knife, 2 swords, blaster, 3 blast effects, stick of dynamite, a chimichanga, weapon accessories,' and 'that loveable spud Doop with a clear floating stand.' It costs $50 and goes up for pre-order on Hasbro Pulse at 1 p.m. ET on August 26, aimed at a fall release. Here are some images. Though this Deadpool is clearly inspired by the Deadpool, X-Men, and X-Force comics the character regularly appears in, it will definitely satisfy fans who know him from the movies too. Especially since there's a chance Deadpool could come back to the big screen next year with a rumored role in Avengers: Doomsday. Plus, star Ryan Reynolds has spoken about a new team-up movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to follow up last year's mega-hit Deadpool & Wolverine. So the Merc with the Mouth isn't going anywhere, except, maybe, your toy shelf. Again, the figure costs $50 and will be available to pre-order next week on Hasbro Pulse. Are you going to grab one? Want more io9 news? Check out when to expect the latest Marvel, Star Wars, and Star Trek releases, what's next for the DC Universe on film and TV, and everything you need to know about the future of Doctor Who.

Stephen A. Smith & Samantha Are A Perfect Daddy-Daughter Duo

Unique Nicole Things weren't looking too bright earlier this year for seasoned sports analyst Stephen A. Smith. A looming beef with superstar athlete LeBron James, public backlash for his critique of Serena Williams joining Kendrick Lamar during the Super Bowl LIX halftime show and even basketball fans grilling him for playing solitaire on his phone during the NBA Finals were just some of the instances that had Smith looking more like The Grinch. Then something unexpected happened at the top of summer: we met his teenage daughter, Samantha Smith. What started as a simple guest appearance during ESPN's coverage of Game 6 in the NBA Finals back in June quickly became a viral moment for Samantha, with many sports fans requesting to see her on a regular basis. The moment benefited Stephen as well, showing a softer, more humane side of his personality compared to the hothead many see on a weekly basis as host of First Take . Bringing their dynamic daddy-daughter duo act to ESPN Radio recently via The Stephen A. Smith Show , Sam worked her magic once again by bringing the laughs with fivehead jokes aplenty, and even got Poppa Smith to blush on his own like a truly proud dad. RELATED: Stephen A. Smith Wants Omari Hardwick or Michael B. Jordan To Play Him In A Biopic We care about your data. See our privacy policy. While it would be amazing to get The Stephen & Samantha Show in a foreseeable future, the teen queen actually is building a name for herself as a budding actress. She got her start back in 2022 in The Best Man: The Final Chapt ers, a series revival of the hit film franchise by Malcolm D. Lee, and followed up in 2023 by guest starring in the short-lived Disney+ series, Saturdays . This year, she made her debut on film with the Tubi original Wrong Place, Wrong Time co-starring former Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood alum Apryl Jones. The trailer sees Samantha getting in on the action, proving we've only began to see what she's truly capable of. We're sure Hollywood has much more to offer Sam in her budding acting career, but for the sake of sports fans we sure do hope The Smiths get the ball rolling in order to strike gold on a highly-requested podcast idea.
