The official Marvel YouTube page started a live stream called "ANNOUNCEMENT"
1y 2mon ago by lemm.ee/u/roydbt in marvelstudios from www.youtube.com
So far it featured a guy going up to the camera and placing near it a chair labeled “Chris Hemsworth” (Thor)
The camera panned out to another chair labeled “Vanessa Kirby” (Invisible Woman), probably related to Doomsday
...and she's sitting there the whole time...
The avengers theme starts playing, and the next chair is “Anthony Mackie” (Captain America)
A theme I didn’t recognized played, and the next chair is for “Sebastian Stan” (The Winter Soldier). It appears that every 13 minutes a new chair is presented, wonder what the significant of 13 is.
13 years since the first avengers movie?
Black panther theme, “Letitia Wright” (Black Panther)
Eerie music plays while waiting for the new chairs, I think I heard some alarms go off for a while
Ant-Man theme, tiny chair for “Paul Rudd” (Ant-Man)
Another unrecognized theme, “Wyatt Russell” (US Agent). It appears the waiting between reveals are getting shorter.
A high school bell, unknown theme, “Tenoch Huerta Mejia” (Namor)
I'm very happy your are doing this play by play.
😊
Agreed! This was the most fun I've had refreshing a page on Lemmy since I joined!
Another theme I think might be F4, “Ebon Moss-Bachrach” (The Thing)
Another theme, “Simu Liu” (Shang Chi)
Might be Wakandan theme, “Florence Pugh” (Black Widow)
Another F4 theme but at this point I’m just guessing, “Kelsey Grammer” (Beast)
WTF they just announced beast what is going on
I was expecting him to appear after The Marvels post credit, but if they announce him here, his role must be greater than I hoped!
A fantastical theme but not Dr. Strange, “Lewis Pullman” (Sentry)
Not really a theme, “Danny Ramirez” (Falcon)
F4 for sure this time, “Joseph Quinn” (The Human Torch)
Another jumpy theme, “David Harbour” (Red Guardian)
I thought that was a remixed X-Men theme at first.
Drums and some horn and chanting, “Winston Duke” (M'Baku)
Another jumpy theme I don’t recall that might be related to the last jumpy one, “Hannah John-Kamen” (Ghost)
That jumpy theme must be the Thunderbolts theme. Seeing her here means that the rumors that she dies early on in Thunderbolts were wrong, so that’s nice.
The iconic Loki tv show theme, “Tom Hiddleston” (Loki)
Also just realized that they changed the title of the stream to “Avengers: Doomsday | Cast Announce”
X-Men The Animated Series in full volume here we go, “Patrick Stewart” (Professor X)
A dark theme, “Ian McKellen” (Magneto)
An angelic theme this time to mix it up, “Alan Cumming” (Nightcrawler)
Are we getting the whole X-Men team back together? It’s also interesting that only the original cast were announced and no one from the prequels
I assume we're just picking up from the adult timeline, the question is more of when. I'm guessing after X3, but in a timeline where Charles has returned.
It's also possible we're picking up after Days of Future Past in the "fixed" timeline, and the fixing done in that film is why they are involved in multiverse shenanigans.
A sad one over here, “Rebecca Romijn” (Mystique)
My stream was on pause so totally missed that, “James Madsen” (Cyclops)
The new Deadpool theme, “Channing Tatum” (Gambit)
Damn, so he really is "about to make a name for himself!"
Totally thought that was gonna be Ryan Reynolds. Anyway I'm gonna take a break so I'll miss the next announcement
Pedro Pascal (Reed Richards), I'm guessing we're nearing the end.
Robert Downey Jr! (DOOM)
ok ngl that ending got me hyped
I've read that the list is going to be nearly 50 names long, so more like we're halfway there!!
UPDATE - seems Jeff Sneider was wrong!
Lol, that was unfortunate timing. I just assumed they were (roughly) evenly spacing our the Fantastic Four and that Pedro would receive near top billing. So once he appeared it had to be someone big, either a big surprise or RDJ.
I'm back! "Pedro Pascal" (Mr. Fantastic)
I guess that means they are done with the X-Men
A doomy Avengers theme which turns cheery and wow that takes long, someone walks to the camera, it's RDJ, says "Shoosh" and we are done. "Robert Downey Jr" (Iron Man/Doom)
I think there is still a chance he pops up next/soon.
isn't his surname Marsden? or am I mixing him up with another actor?
Oops, you are right
The rumors I've heard is that Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko) is the one who died early. But it's also possible that the reveals here include a lie and/or we see another universe characters.
Oh yeah, got that wrong 😅

gambit
Me: let’s fucking gooooooooooo
Surely this must be for Doomsday. The directors chairs at least imply it's film-related and not an announcement for a comics event.
I know this can't be everyone - neither Strange nor Wong are here, nor are any of the Hulks?
