Kelsey Grammer is just one of several actors from 20th Century Fox’s now defunct X-Men franchise that we’ll see in Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Doomsday, and it sounds like Hank McCoy is going to have a fairly significant role in the movie.<\/p>\n
While speaking to ET, the Frasier star – who appeared as Beast in the post-credits scene of The Marvels – spilled some intriguing details (maybe more than he meant to) on the actors he was most excited to work with, revealing a few of the characters we can expect to see Beast interact with in the process.<\/p>\n
Beast will share the screen with Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), and (sort of) Doctor Doom (Robert Downey Jr.).<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m a big of Robert Downey Jr. I love him and he\u2019s just a terrific fella,” said Grammer. “We… sort of share a scene. I don\u2019t wanna go too into that. I don\u2019t know what I can say or not say.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI really had a great time with the new guy from Fantastic Four \u2014 Pedro, wonderful guy,” he added. “I really, really enjoyed hanging out with him and we worked \u2026together.\u201d <\/p>\n
Grammer trails off at this point, clearly aware that he may have said a little too much!<\/p>\n
The news that Beast and Mr. Fantastic will have a chat (you can probably guess what they’ll be discussing) is sure to build hype, as is the prospect of a Beast\/Doom face-off – though Grammer’s comments seem to suggest that they won’t have a one-on-one interaction.<\/p>\n
To be fair, actors from a movie sharing scenes with other actors from the same movie wouldn’t usually be considered a spoiler, but with so much of Doomsday’s plot still under wraps, it is interesting to learn that at least some of the returning X-Men will interact with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.<\/p>\n
We have heard that the X-Men and the Avengers will do battle, but there’s a good chance they will ultimately join forces once Doom’s villainous machinations are brought to light.<\/p>\n

Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars were recently hit with significant delays, with Doomsday now set to arrive in theaters on December 18, 2026, and Secret Wars positioned\u00a0for December 17, 2027.<\/p>\n Both movies\u00a0will be directed by the Russo brothers, who also make their MCU return after helming Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.\u00a0<\/p>\n “Being able to create stories and explore characters within the Marvel Universe fulfilled a life-long dream of ours, and we discovered a powerful connection with audiences in each film that we made. We\u2019re thrilled to collaborate once again with Kevin, Lou and the entire Marvel team to bring this epic adventure in storytelling to new and surprising places for both the fans and ourselves\u201d, said The Russos in a statement after the SDCC panel.<\/p>\n You can check out the full (for now) Doomsday cast list below.<\/p>\n
