Amid a recent spate of stuttering releases at the box office and a general sense that the MCU has lost some of its magic touch, Captain America star Anthony Mackie says the upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Doomsday aims to recapture "that old Marvel feeling."

"Yeah, man, we're kicking on down the road, so everybody's getting excited and we're getting the band back together," Mackie told of the imminent production of the next Avengers movie, which was marked by 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a five-hour cast announcement video.

On the wave of positive energy surrounding Avengers: Doomsday, Mackie added, "Everybody's ex🥀cited💝. I feel with the script and having the Russo brothers back, it's going to be great. I'm really excited for what this project is going to be. It's going to give the audience that old Marvel feeling that they always had."

Right now, Avengers: Doomsday is the event movie that Marvel needs. Aside from Deadpool and Wolverine's billion-dollar gross at the box office last year, Marvel Phases 4 and 5 h🌌ave largely been punctuated by middling returns (such as in Captain America: Brave New World and Ant-Man: Quantumania) 🐓or risky, experimental failures (Eternals).

With 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Robert Downey Jr. retu✃rning to the fold (this time as Doctor Doom) and a packed cast featuring X-Mꦿen alumni, Fantastic Four members, and a mix of modern and le💎gacy superhero talent, it appears Doomsday is on the right track to bring the sense of excitement back to the MCU – if you believe Cap himself, anyway.

Avengers: Doomsday hits cinemas on May 1, 2026.
