Cameras have been rolling on Avengers: Doomsday for just over five months and Marvel Studios has gone to great lengths to try to keep details about the 2026 film in house. With most of the movie being filmed either on a soundstage or in locations that are very secluded and/or secure, the studio has managed to limit the major leaks that have plagued almost every project it has produced in the past five years…until now, perhaps.
A recent rumor indicated that Chris Evans –who has not been officially announced as part of the cast of the film–would be reprising tlhis role as Steve Rogers and that his story would pick up where itedt off in Avengers: Endgame. Now, a pair of social media reports have combined to shed an even brighter light on the role and reveal the first truly major spoiler from the project. Proceed with caution…
The rumor mill began rolling when photographer UnBoxPHD shared the news that Tom Hiddleston was on the set of Avengers: Doomsday to film. That information could in no way be considered spoilery given that Hiddleston was among those announced as part of the cast in March; however, a follow-up report by a trusted Marvel insider may have connected a series of dots and revealed a major plot point.
According to longtime social media scooper Daniel Richtman, Hiddleston filmed his scenes along with Evans and Haley Atwell, presumably at the “Luke Cage house.”
Tom Hiddleston has filmed a scene in Steve and Peggy’s home where he’s having a [conversation] with them.

If accurate, it means that the God of Stories will have left his throne at the Citadel at the End of Time from where he protects the Multiverse. And it would take something incredibly important to cause him to make that choice…
Though it’s far from confirmed, such a scene could very well lend support to rumblings recently making the rounds that suggest Steve Rogers’ decision to live a life “in the past” with Peggy caused the first incursion and has made him the target of Doctor Doom’s ire. Aside from the rich possibilities of Rogers and Loki meeting again on screen (remember, this is the Time Heist Variant of Loki, which means he has a past with Rogers but has evolved over the course of an incredible journey), having Avengers: Doomsday tie directly into the epilogue of Avengers: Endgame would be a smart move for the studio. It also presents an intriguing dynamic in which Rogers–The Man Out of Time who led Earth’s Mightiest Heroes to victory over Thanos–inadvertently started the destruction of the Multiverse while Loki–the God of Lies whose attempt to conquer Earth assembled the Avengers–must now try to save it…again.
