    'Avengers: Doomsday' Casting News and the State of the MCU

    I’ve been wanting to get back to podcasting semi-regularly for some time now. Then the Avengers: Doomsday casting dropped yesterday and I had to talk about it. So I recorded myself talking to myself for your enjoyment. I’m planning on doing another pod soon about the state of Star Wars, which is an ongoing concern. The announced cast for Doomsday: Chris Hemsworth as Thor Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm / Invisible Woman Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson / Captain America Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes / The Winter Soldier Letitia Wright as Shuri / Black Panther Paul Rudd as Scott Lang / Ant-Man Wyatt Russell as John Walker / U.S. Agent Tenoch Huerta Mejia as Namor Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm / The Thing Simu Liu as Shang-Chi Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova Kelsey Grammer as Dr. Hank McCoy / Beast Lewis Pullman as Bob / Sentry Danny Ramirez as Joaquin Torres / Falcon Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm / Human Torch David Harbour as Alexei Shostakov / Red Guardian Winston Duke as M'Baku Hannah John-Kamen as Ava Starr / Ghost Tom Hiddleston as Loki Patrick Stewart as Professor Charles Xavier Ian McKellen as Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto Alan Cumming as Kurt Wagner / Nightcrawler Rebecca Romijn as Mystique James Marsden as Scott Summers / Cyclops Channing Tatum as Remy LeBeau / Gambit Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards / Mr. Fantastic Robert Downey Jr. as Victor Von Doom / Doctor Doom Bestill my nerdy heart. Balancing out my enthusiasm for the cast is my doubts about the rushed nature of the film and the short-term mentality of casting RDJ as Doctor Doom.
