Okay, let's talk about those alleged Avengers: Doomsday leaks
[This article may contain spoilers for Avengers: Doomsday—although, since that movie hasn't even been filmed yet, god only knows, yeah?] Earlier today, the Marvel news ecosystem flew into a veritable tizzy—possibly even a kerfuffle—over allegations that concept art for next May's Avengers: Doomsday had leaked out onto the internet. Per an artist named Mushk Rizvi (whose social media and LinkedIn lists them as a concept artist for Marvel Studios) very briefly posted several images that were alleged to be concept art for the as-yet-unfilmed movie, and while these posts were quickly deleted, it wasn't quick enough for the internet. Now the images are floating around all over the place (we're not going to post them here, but even the semi-lobotomized Google of recent days will bring them up with a simple search), sending the speculation machines into overdrive. The upshot of all this is that—as might be expected, given that the 2027 Avengers movie is literally named after it—it's looking increasingly possible that this new duology of films, directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, will take major inspiration from 2015 event comic Secret Wars, in which Marvel villain par excellence Victor Von Doom finally managed to conquer reality for good. (I.e., for a couple of months a decade ago, until the status quo reasserted itself.) Among other things, the art shows Doom looming on his throne with Stephen Strange at his side, while the presence of 'Sheriff Strange' was a major part of comic-Doom's rule of 'Battleworld,' the small corner of reality he kludged together to rule over after the various members of the Marvel multiverse managed to blow each other to hell once and for all. Other images seem to also reference memorable bits of Secret Wars, including a medieval village filled with Hulks that seems reminiscent of the comics' concept of 'Greenland.' Other pictures reference a possible line-up of Young Avengers (including Kate Bishop Kamala Khan, and Billy Maximoff), although, if we're being honest, that particular picture is the one that makes us the most skeptical of this whole art dump, because it's hard to imagine Marvel attempting to reclaim its top position atop the box office heap with a movie that prominently features weirdo X-Men mascot character Doop. There's also a very odd image that shows what would appear to be a re-cast Black Panther, one where Star-Lord and Vision are roommates, and some shots that seem to show Pedro Pascal's Reed Richards on his knees before Doom. All of this, obviously, needs to be taken with huge, skyscraper-sized grains of salt; even if this concept art is real, it's just that: Concept art, suggesting possible ideas Marvel is exploring for the film, with no commitment to pursuing any of them. It is odd to note, though, that Secret Wars was essentially a massive finale, paying off, after decades, the idea of Doom finally triumphing over the rest of the Marvel universe. Using it in what's expected to be Robert Downey Jr.'s first major film in the role feels very odd, although the Russos have said they expect the film to 'challenge' audiences—and starting off with Doom suddenly in control of reality, and working back from there, would be a pretty hefty challenge for viewers to cope with.

Leaked ‘Avengers: Doomsday' concept art reveals potential plot and character details
Leaked concept art from Marvel Studios' Avengers: Doomsday has surfaced online, offering a possible first look at scenes and characters from the highly anticipated fifth Avengers film. The images, originally posted by concept artist Mushk Rizvi on ArtStation before being removed, suggest a medieval, multiversal, and time-travelling storyline. Among the most discussed pieces is an image of Doctor Doom, played by Robert Downey Jr., sitting on a throne in medieval surroundings. The white-and-silver armor seen in the artwork differs from the green cloak revealed at San Diego Comic-Con 2024, raising speculation about alternate timelines or universes. Other concept art shows Star-Lord and White Vision lounging together, a medieval village populated with Hulk-like figures, and a Young Avengers gathering led by Wong, featuring Cassie Lang, Wiccan, Kate Bishop, and Ms. Marvel. Another piece depicts a variant of Black Panther, rumoured to be Prince T'Challa II, standing before Wakanda's Panther-shaped rock formation. Chris Evans and Hayley Atwell are confirmed to return, with Atwell reprising her role as Agent Carter. However, Marvel has not revealed if Evans will play Captain America or a different version of Steve Rogers. Set for release in May 2026, Avengers: Doomsday replaces The Kang Dynasty and will be followed by Avengers: Secret Wars in May 2027. With the Russo brothers directing, fans eagerly await official details on Marvel's next multiversal adventure.

Is Marvel's Avengers: Doomsday concept art leak real?
ALBAWABA - One day ago, a concept art leak for Marvel's most-anticipated superhero movie, Avengers: Doomsday reportedly swarmed the internet sparking excitement due to revealing an interesting medieval aesthetic and plot elements. The leaked artworks were shared on ArtStation by Mushk Rizvi, a concept artist and illustrator at Marvel Studios and CAPCOM. While the artist didn't take long to delete the post in question, Marvel fans were quick on their feet and shared the photos across social media. Caution: The artworks contain massive spoilers. It all occurred when an artist who allegedly works at Marvel reportedly mass-leaked their concept art for Avengers: Doomsday showcasing the movie's superheroes and villains in different scenarios. The most popular artwork in the leak showcased the movie's villain, Doctor Doom sitting on a throne displaying his menacing and powerful aura. Another artwork highlighted a "Hulk Village" with both Bruce Banner and Jennifer Walters present while wearing medieval-themed clothing. This is in reference to Doom's Battleworld (Latverion), a planet made out of remnants of destroyed realities due to the Multiverse collapse. Moreover, several other artworks were also reportedly leaked. One showcased a team of "Young Avengers" having a conversation with Doctor Strange's Wong and Star-Lord from The Guardians of the Galaxy. The team consisted of Miss Marvel, Cathy Lang, X-Men's Doop, and more. An additional artwork showed Peter Quill (also known as Star-Lord) and Vision enjoying their time off on a couch while watching TV. Last but not least, one specific leaked concept art sparked debate across social media after showcasing a different Black Panther actor than the late Chadwick Boseman, who tragically passed away after battling colon cancer. According to several sources, the star in the concept art is English actor Damson Idris, best known for starring in the hit FX/ Hulu show "Snowfall."
