Joining Robert Downey Jr. as Victor von Doom, a.k.a. Doctor Doom, in Avengers: Doomsday is an assemble of A-list Marvel talent from across the cinematic universe. 

As filming on the next MCU event film kicks off this week, the studio confirmed that Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Paul Rudd (Ant-Man), Vanessa Kirby (Sue Storm/Invisible Woman), Anthony Mackie (Sam Wilson/the new Captain America), Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes/The Winter Soldier), Letitia Wright (Shuri/the new Black Panther), Wyatt Russell (John Walker/U.S. Agent), Tenoch Huerta Mejia (Namor the Submariner), Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Ben Grimm/The Thing), Simu Liu (Shang-Chi), and Florence Pugh (Yelena).

More casting continues to be revealed on Wednesday.

Some of these faces we haven’t technically met yet outside of a trailers. For instance, Kirby and Moss-Bachrach won’t debut as their characters until this summer’s Fantastic Four: First Steps. Mejia was one of the bigger surprise announcements, having debuted as the prime antagonist in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
