Even though Avengers: Doomsday has officially begun production, Victor von Doom himself, Robert Downey Jr. and some fellow cast members took time out of their schedule to catch the latest MCU installment, Thunderbolts*, showing their support while also passing the torch (not the human kind).
RDJ recently posted on his Instagram a picture from a private screening of Thunderbolts* that he, Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Channing Tatum (Gambit), Simu Liu (Xu Shang-Chi), Paul Rudd (Ant-Man), Winston Duke (M’Baku), and Anthony Mackie (Captain America) sat down for. Another image shows that group joined by Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Thing) and Vanessa Kirby (Invisible Woman). He captioned his post, “Just wow!!! Dinner and a show with the Old Avengers. So cool, fresh, and deep. Big congrats.”
What’s sort of comical about the whole situation is that Marvel has been trying to put the Mjölnir down on cast members who spoil movies. Granted, this is usually ahead of the film’s release, whereas Thunderbolts* is now out for the masses. Even still, it does seem like a slip-up on RDJ’s part, albeit not at the level of, say, Mark Ruffalo and Tom Holland.
Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters on while its follow-up, Avengers: Secret Wars arrives on . In between those will be Spider-Man: Brand New Day on .
