More from Avengers: Doomsday → 4 videosThis D23 appearance matters because it reframes three defining MCU performers for a new Avengers chapter: Chris Evans and Hayley Atwell return to familiar roles, while Robert Downey Jr. takes on Doctor Doom instead of Iron Man. The footage also points toward an unusually broad crossover involving the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four, making the event notable both for its returning stars and its expansion of Marvel’s central superhero lineup.
Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, and Hayley Atwell joined Kevin Feige onstage at D23, bringing three of the MCU’s most beloved stars together again. Evans is back as Steve Rogers, Atwell returns as Peggy Carter, while Downey has traded Iron Man for the far more dangerous Doctor Doom.
Marvel also debuted new Avengers: Doomsday footage teasing the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four coming together against their biggest threat yet.

Avengers: Doomsday opens exclusively in theaters on December 18, 2026.
