While some might have expected him to say no, Brolin said he\u2019d gladly do so if asked.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI\u2019ve said it, Deadpool 2, I\u2019m glad it was one experience. The Thanos thing, if they called me in London right now and said, \u2018Let\u2019s do this,\u2019 I\u2019d be like, \u2018I\u2019ll be there tomorrow,&#8217;\u201d said Brolin. \u201cOf course, they\u2019re going to come up with something really fun. And I mean, who knows? Who knows? That was a ten-year building kind of thing. That was its own kind of book-ended deal. And I don\u2019t know what they\u2019re going to do, but I\u2019m sure it\u2019ll be interesting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While it\u2019s unlikely that Thanos would actually appear in Avengers: Doomsday, a cameo appearance in Secret Wars wouldn\u2019t be out of the question. With a multiverse\u2019s worth of characters to play with, the Russo\u2019s could potentially feature the iconic MCU villain one more time if they wanted to.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Doomsday is led by Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, but also includes Chris Hemsworth\u2019s Thor,\u00a0Pedro Pascal\u2019s Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby\u2019s Invisible Woman\/Sue Storm,\u00a0Anthony Mackie\u2019s Captain America,\u00a0Sebastian Stan\u2019s Bucky Barnes\/Winter Soldier,\u00a0Letitia Wright\u2019s Shuri\/Black Panther, and\u00a0Paul Rudd\u2019s Ant-Man.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">More names for the upcoming movie include\u00a0Wyatt Russell\u2019s U.S. Agent\/John Walker,\u00a0Tenoch Huerta\u2019s Namor,\u00a0Ebon Moss-Bachrach\u2019s The Thing\/Ben Grimm,\u00a0Simu Liu\u2019s Shang-Chi,\u00a0Florence Pugh\u2019s Yelena Belova,\u00a0Kelsey Grammer\u2019s Dr. Hank McCoy\/Beast,\u00a0Lewis Pullman\u2019s Bob\/Sentry,\u00a0Danny Ramirez\u2019s Joaquin Torres\/Falcon,\u00a0Joseph Quinn\u2019s Johnny Storm\/Human Torch,\u00a0David Harbour\u2019s Alexei Shostakov\/Red Guardian,\u00a0Winston Duke\u2018s M\u2019Baku,\u00a0Hannah John-Kamen\u2018s Ava Starr\/Ghost, and\u00a0Tom Hiddleston\u2018s Loki.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Avengers: Doomsday is slated to release in theaters on December 18, 2026.
