Get ready for a blockbuster revelation! The highly anticipated Avengers: Doomsday is shaping up to be a massive hit, but there's a twist that might leave some fans disappointed. One beloved MCU star won't be joining the epic battle.
Marvel Studios' Avengers: Doomsday, directed by the renowned Russo Brothers, is currently in the post-production phase, gearing up for its release later this year. The sequel, Avengers: Secret Wars, is already on the horizon, set to hit theaters in 2027. But here's where it gets controversial: which MCU icon won't be part of this epic showdown?
In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Kat Dennings, the talented actress behind Darcy Lewis, confirmed that her character won't be making an appearance in Avengers: Doomsday. Her words left no room for doubt: "I'm not in it. I'm telling you right now that I'm not in it." Dennings even hinted at the possibility of her character being digitally added to the film, but it seems like a long shot.
While it's not entirely shocking news, given Darcy's absence from previous Avengers films and the already massive cast of Doomsday, it's still a notable absence. Dennings has been a part of the MCU for over a decade, making her first appearance in 2011's Thor. Her character has since popped up in Thor: The Dark World, WandaVision, and Thor: Love and Thunder, and even had a fun What If...? episode where she married Howard the Duck!
Avengers: Doomsday is set to release on December 18, 2026, and Avengers: Secret Wars will follow on December 17, 2027. So, will you miss Darcy's presence in this epic adventure? Or do you think her absence might open up new and exciting storylines? Let us know your thoughts in the comments! The MCU universe is vast, and there's always room for surprises!
