@MyTimeToShineH<\/a>, who reports that, “The Champions\/Young Avengers will be in both Doomsday and Secret Wars to tease their show that will be set post Secret Wars.”<\/p>\nThe upcoming Avengers movies are an ideal place to establish this new superhero team. In terms of who will assemble as the MCU’s Champions,\u00a0Wiccan (Joe Locke), Speed (Ruaridh Mollica), Ms. Marvel (Iman Vellani), Hawkeye (Hailee Steinfeld), America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez), Cassie Lang (Kathryn Newton), and Ironheart (Dominique Thorne) are all likely contenders.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Locke\u00a0first played Wiccan in\u00a0Agatha All Along, while\u00a0Iman Vellani put herself on the map with\u00a0Ms. Marvel\u00a0and was teased as the founder of this team in\u00a0The Marvels’ closing moments. As for Steinfeld, she received rave reviews for her take on Kate Bishop in\u00a0Hawkeye.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Gomez, meanwhile, made her MCU debut as America in 2022’s\u00a0Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness\u00a0and is expected to be a major player in the next\u00a0Avengers\u00a0movies given her ability to travel between realities. Thorne first played Riri in\u00a0Black Panther: Wakanda Forever\u00a0that same year and has since headlined\u00a0Ironheart.<\/p>\n
Newton took over the role of Cassie in 2023’s\u00a0Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, while\u00a0Mollica will make his MCU debut as Speed in the upcoming VisionQuest series on Disney+.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Asked this year about plans for the Young Avengers, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige previously said, “Potentially. In that case, it comes down to where\u2019s the best story and where is the best strange alchemy. Who would be fun to see them with? Each other, because that\u2019s what the Young Avengers are, but also mixing it up more.”<\/p>\n
Like Nova and Strange Academy, Champions is a project that could ultimately come to nought. It will surely hinge on the success of Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, and how fans respond to these characters when they’re finally brought together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It’s been over a year since we first learned that\u00a0Marvel Studios had\u00a0supposedly\u00a0given up on making a\u00a0Young Avengers\u00a0movie.\u00a0Instead, the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":184281,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[11445,19777,65377,146,85,46,397,23110],"class_list":{"0":"post-184280","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-avengers-doomsday","9":"tag-avengers-secret-wars","10":"tag-champions","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-il","13":"tag-israel","14":"tag-movies","15":"tag-young-avengers"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184280","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=184280"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184280\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/184281"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=184280"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=184280"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=184280"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
