Mystery fan leaks ‘Avengers: Doomsday' set video, and it's stirring X-Men and Madripoor theories like wildfire
'Avengers: Doomsday' The Marvel fandom is in a frenzy after a mysterious TikTok user posted alleged behind-the-scenes footage from 'Avengers: Doomsday' the upcoming epic directed by the Russo Brothers . The clip which was first uploaded by a user with the cryptic handle @TheyNeverSawItComing, claimed to be a sneaky glimpse into the film's London-based set. While the original TikTok was quickly removed, the damage or delight, depending on your fandom level had already been done. The clip spread rapidly across Instagram and X (formerly Twitter), sparking a tidal wave of theories, speculation and digital sleuthing. Madripoor returns: Marvel's underworld may be back Among the biggest bombshells in the leaked video was a set that appeared to resemble Madripoor, the infamous criminal haven introduced in 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.' Known for its seedy underbelly and lawless atmosphere, Madripoor is deeply tied to Sharon Carter's alter ego, the Power Broker and even more interestingly, to the X-Men universe. Fans online wasted no time diving into speculation. One X user commented, 'If Madripoor is in this movie, does that mean we're finally getting closure on Sharon Carter and the Power Broker? Or… Wolverine?' The location's ties to the mutant world fueled hopes that the long-awaited X-Men introduction into the MCU may be underway. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom?

Fan Sneaks Onto Avengers Doomsday Set: From Madripoor Secrets to X-Men Theories, 3 Major Leaks Revealed
A TikTok user going by @TheyNeverSawItComing went viral after claiming to sneak onto the set of Avengers: Doomsday, the highly anticipated Marvel movie directed by the Russo Brothers. The user shared a video showing behind-the-scenes footage from the London-based set. While the clip has since been taken down from TikTok, it was re-uploaded to Instagram and circulated widely on X (formerly Twitter). The film, starring Robert Downey Jr. in a new role as Doctor Doom, began filming in March 2025 and is scheduled for release on May 1, 2026. One of the most talked-about details from the video is the sighting of a Madripoor set. Madripoor, a fictional island known for its lawless, criminal environment, first appeared in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. It's closely tied to Sharon Carter's Power Broker storyline and holds deep connections to Marvel's mutant universe. Fans on social media pointed out that this could hint at Sharon Carter's return or even signal Wolverine's possible involvement. One user posted, 'If we get Madripoor in this movie, it would be nice if this means we finally get to resolve the whole Sharon/Power-Broker storyline.' Another simply asked, 'Wolverine?' While the clip gained attention, several Marvel fans questioned its authenticity. Some suggested it could be a manufactured stunt. A user on X wrote, 'The TikTok clip, the username, the fact that it did not immediately get sniped down by Disney…this is painfully staged as hell.' Another joked, 'Yeah, this definitely isn't some stunt by Disney.' Critics pointed out that the TikToker didn't try to hide, walking openly with a backpack and phone in hand. 'He walked around with a backpack on and his phone out like he's recording, and that's how someone looks if they're supposed to be there?' one person asked. In addition to Madripoor, fans also spotted fallen Sentinels, a callback to X-Men: Days of Future Past. These sightings fueled rumors of a major Avengers vs. X-Men crossover in Avengers: Doomsday. With Marvel now integrating Fox's X-Men universe, theories are growing stronger. Rumors suggest cameos from Patrick Stewart's Professor X and Ian McKellen's Magneto, along with Hugh Jackman's Wolverine. While nothing has been confirmed by Marvel, the leaked footage has added fuel to ongoing speculation. Until Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters in 2026, fans will continue to analyze every detail and possible leak online.
