Avengers: Infinity War's Benicio del Toro on if He'll Return in Doomsday
Benicio del Toro recently shared his thoughts on whether he will join the cast of Avengers: Doomsday as The Collector. The actor debuted in the MCU in the 2013 film, Thor: The Dark World. Although after the 2018 film, Avengers: Infinity War, The Collector hasn't been seen in any Marvel movies. Benicio del Toro recently sat down for an interview with ComicBook to promote The Phoenician Scheme, when he talked about The Collector's potential role in Avengers: Doomsday. The outlet asked Benicio del Toro whether he would join the cast of the upcoming Avengers movie. In response, he expressed uncertainty about The Collector's future in the MCU and stated, 'I don't know. I mean, it's like, you gotta get invited to play in that international tournament, and I'd love to play in it, but fingers crossed that'll happen soon. I haven't been invited yet for a second round.' The Collector, aka Taneleer Tivan, last appeared on the big screen in Avengers: Infinity War when Thanos arrived at Knowhere to obtain the Reality Stone. Here, Tivan was shown in the illusion that Thanos created to deceive the Guardians of the Galaxy. However, whether The Collector survived or was killed by Thanos on Knowhere remained a mystery. In 2018, Benicio del Toro shared that he believed that The Collector was alive after Infinity War. He said, 'I think he's alive…I think that, you know. You're talking to him!' (via CinemaBlend) Additionally, in November 2022, Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn also hinted that The Collector might be alive. While talking to Entertainment Tonight about the base the Guardians had in the GOTG Holiday Special, Gunn conveyed, 'They've bought Knowhere from The Collector, that's their home base now.' Avengers: Doomsday will come out on December 18, 2026. Originally reported by Ishita Verma on SuperHeroHype.

Chris Hemsworth's Thor tribute fuels MCU exit rumors ahead of ‘Avengers: Doomsday'
Chris Hemsworth has shared a video tribute reflecting on his 15-year run as Thor, prompting speculation that his time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe may be nearing its end. The video, titled 'Thank You! The Legacy of Thor,' was released shortly after Marvel confirmed Hemsworth will return as the God of Thunder in Avengers: Doomsday. The tribute includes a mix of scenes from Hemsworth's appearances across the MCU, including all four Thor films and ensemble titles like Avengers, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame. It also features behind-the-scenes footage and personal reflections from the actor. 'Playing Thor has been one of the greatest honors of my life,' Hemsworth wrote in a message accompanying the video. 'For the last 15 years I've held Mjolnir and then Stormbreaker as the God of Thunder, but what made it truly special… was sharing it with all of you... Next up, Doomsday!' While the post does not confirm an exit, its tone has led many fans to believe Hemsworth may be preparing to conclude his role. The actor previously indicated that any future appearance as Thor might need to serve as a conclusion to the character's story. 'I feel like we'd probably have to close the book if I ever did it again... You have this birth of a hero, the journey of a hero, then the death of a hero... am I at that stage? Who knows?' he said in an earlier interview. Marvel Studios has not commented on whether Avengers: Doomsday will be Hemsworth's final appearance, though speculation has also centered around whether Thor might return for Avengers: Secret Wars, currently set for release in 2027. Both films have recently faced delays. Avengers: Doomsday is now scheduled for December 18, 2026, and Avengers: Secret Wars is slated for December 17, 2027. The Russo brothers, who directed previous major MCU titles including Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, are set to return to direct both projects.

Justin Bieber slammed for inappropriate comment on Ariana Greenblatt's Instagram post
Pop superstar Justin Bieber is facing criticism after posting a comment on 17-year-old actress Ariana Greenblatt's Instagram post, prompting accusations of inappropriate behavior. The controversy has sparked a wider conversation about the boundaries of social media interactions between celebrities and minors. Greenblatt, known for her roles in Barbie, Avengers: Infinity War, and Disney Channel's Stuck in the Middle, shared a promotional photo for her upcoming Netflix horror film Fear Street: Prom Queen on May 24. In her post, she expressed excitement about the movie, writing, 'Fear Street: Prom Queen is out now on Netflix!!! Horror had always been one of my favorite genres and to have this movie be my introduction into the world was an honor. Long live Christy Renault.' What garnered attention, however, was Bieber's comment underneath the post: 'I love youuuuuuuuu.' While some fans saw this as a harmless show of support, many others found it problematic due to Greenblatt's age (17) and Bieber's marital status. The comment quickly drew criticism from users who deemed it inappropriate. One user wrote, 'She's 17. You're a grown man. This is weird,' while another added, 'You're married, bro. What are you doing?' Critics were particularly vocal about the potential implications of Bieber's behavior, with many expressing concern over the power dynamics in celebrity relationships and the appropriateness of public interactions between adults and minors on social media. Not everyone agreed with the backlash. Some fans came to Bieber's defense, arguing that his comment was simply an expression of admiration for Greenblatt's work. One supporter remarked, 'He's just showing her love, lmao. If you have a problem with that, go judge the other adults in the comments showing her love.' The situation highlights the blurred lines in modern celebrity culture, where social media interactions are often scrutinized by the public. Social media etiquette expert Dr. Lisa Reynolds explains, 'While public figures often engage with their fans in the form of comments, it's important to remember that context matters, especially when minors are involved. Celebrities, like Bieber, have a responsibility to be mindful of the messages they send, even in seemingly innocent interactions.' Greenblatt has built a strong reputation as one of Hollywood's most promising young actresses. Her standout performances in Avengers: Infinity War and Barbie earned her critical acclaim, and her rapid rise has made her a popular figure on social media, where she currently boasts 3.8 million followers.
