Yes, you read that correctly.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/comicbookmovie.com\/avengers\/avengers-doomsday\/rumor-avengers-doomsday-will-see-deadpool-paired-up-with-spoiler-and-spoiler-a225767\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">It&#8217;s previously been reported<\/a> that Logan, Peter Parker, and Deadpool will share the screen in the upcoming movie, but Wolverine killing Spidey surely isn&#8217;t something anyone wants to see. Fortunately, we have an update from scooper <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AlexFromCC\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Alex Perez<\/a>, who claims to have set the record straight on these rumours.<\/p>\n<p>According to The Cosmic Circus writer, claims that members of the X-Men are set to battle Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus during the events of 2004&#8217;s Spider-Man 2 are false. He also adds, &#8220;Tobey Maguire\u2019s Spider-Man will not die in Avengers: Doomsday.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While this is admittedly\u00a0a rumour countering another rumour, Perez has a solid track record, so we&#8217;re willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. As always, though, it&#8217;s best to take any\u00a0claims like these with a pinch of salt.<\/p>\n<p>Maguire&#8217;s wall-crawler likely surviving the events of Avengers: Doomsday is a relief, regardless, as it increases the odds of him sharing the screen with Tom Holland and Andrew Garfield&#8217;s Spider-Men in Avengers: Secret Wars.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Perez has also said that Marvel Studios scrapped plans for Earth-838&#8217;s Illuminati to reform in Deadpool &amp; Wolverine. The group was reportedly set to feature\u00a0Mordo, a Scarlet Witch Variant, Magneto, Quicksilver, and Iron Monger. Could they return in Avengers: Doomsday, or has the moment passed?<\/p>\n<p>In other news, a toy event in London today has confirmed that Avengers: Doomsday Funko Pops will be released in November. Spider-Man: Brand New Day, meanwhile, will get its own line of bobbleheads in April. These release windows offer an idea of when merchandise will begin arriving in stores.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for more on Avengers: Doomsday as we have it.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Avengers: Doomsday\u00a0officially stars Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Winston Duke, Tom Hiddleston, Sebastian Stan, Letitia Wright, Paul Rudd, and Robert Downey Jr. Wyatt Russell, Simu Liu, Tenoch Huerta Mejia, Mabel Cadena, Florence Pugh, Danny Ramirez, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, Lewis Pullman, and\u00a0India Rose Hemsworth all make their\u00a0Avengers\u00a0franchise debuts.<\/p>\n<p>The Fantastic Four: First Steps\u00a0leads Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn join them, as do\u00a0X-Men\u00a0franchise stars Kelsey Grammer, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, Rebecca Romijn, James Marsden, with\u00a0Deadpool &amp; Wolverine\u00a0star Channing Tatum.
