The Marvel Cinematic Universe is known for its intense secrecy, but some Avengers: Doomsday secrets may have just spilled. When it comes to franchises that fans are eager to know every spoilery detail about, there are not many that top Marvel. While the studio is notorious for making sure its actors remain tight-lipped, there have been plenty of jokes about how Tom Holland and Mark Ruffalo have let slip more than a few details.
Now, a new contender for the most loose-lipped MCU star may have emerged. Kelsey Grammer was recentluy speaking to Entertainment Tonight about reprising his role as Beast in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday and was asked about who he enjoyed sharing the screen with the most. While Grammer tried to remain secretive, he did reveal that he "sort of" shares a scene with Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom and expressed particular pleasure in working with Pedro Pascal.
Grammer is confirmed to be back in his role as Beast - a role he played to great acclaim in X-Men: The Last Stand, and he also had a brief appearance in X-Men: Days of Future Past. Grammer has since made a cameo as Beast in the post-credit scene of The Marvels, with his first MCU appearance setting up this crossover. He will be joined in Avengers: Doomsday by several past cast members of the Fox X-Men movies, including Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier, Ian McKellen as Magneto, and James Marsden as Cyclops.
What do Grammer's comments reveal about Avengers: Doomsday?
While Kelsey Grammer's comments might not seem too spoiler-filled, any small detail about Avengers: Doomsday helps to paint a clearer picture of this ambitious movie. Little is known about the fifth Avengers movie, but it is presumed that it will feature several different groups of superheroes, from the X-Men to the Fantastic Four to the New Avengers, facing off with Doctor Doom.
The multiverse aspect of the movie allows many characters to interact, and the Avengers: Doomsday cast announcement confirmed a massive roster. It would seem impossible to have all these characters share the screen, but Grammer suggests the X-Men will share the screen with Doom at some point, as well as the Fantastic Four.
The latter reveal is actually the most exciting and raises the anticipation for Avengers: Doomsday. The idea of Beast and Mr. Fantastic interacting is a really fun idea that any Marvel fan will love to hear. These two genius scientists would certainly find a lot in common, and it is a reminder of all the unique and fun character moments that we will get when so many iconic characters come together.
