Amid Avengers Doomsday’s Worrying Filming Schedule Updates, This X-Men Actor Just Admitted That He’s Still Not Done Filming Marvel’s Upcoming Movie

by

With updates about the filming schedule for “Avengers: Doomsday” causing concern, an X-Men actor recently confirmed that he is yet to complete his part in the upcoming Marvel ensemble movie. The Russo Brothers’ next Marvel Cinematic Universe blockbuster is scheduled for release in December, with production still underway in London, England. This exciting adventure spanning the Marvel Multiverse has already experienced some delays and rescheduling, as it was previously known as “Avengers: Kang Dynasty.

Following the latest update, which shifted the movie’s release from May 2026 to December, it appears that Doomsday is set for a December premiere. However, recent news indicates that its release timeline might be in jeopardy due to delays in filming the action-packed superhero collaboration.

As a fellow cinema enthusiast, I’m excited to share some intriguing news! The talented actor Alan Cumming, who brought life to a character in the epic saga “Avengers: Doomsday”, has just confirmed on his Instagram Story that he’s returning to the film’s action-packed set. After taking a brief break from production, it seems he’s ready to rejoin the superhero adventure once again!

On the specified post (kept intact by Cosmic Marvel on X), the actor portraying the X-Men character uploaded a picture depicting his character from the Fox X-Men universe and wrote, “I’m returning to my blue state this week.

It appears that the production of what is expected to be “Avengers: Doomsday” might be encountering some delays, causing a bit of concern among fans due to the film’s extensive shooting schedule. According to recent reports, the Marvel team has had to extend their production timeline by another month.

Despite having about 18 months until “Doomsday” hits theaters, if the filming schedule gets pushed back further, it becomes increasingly probable that the new “Avengers” movie will be released in the year 2027 instead of its original planned year.

The upcoming film titled “Avengers: Doomsday” marks the first part of Marvel Studios’ two-part series known as the “Marvel Multiverse Saga.” In this saga, Earth’s strongest superheroes will confront the villainous Doctor Doom, portrayed by Robert Downey Jr., in an epic battle to protect the Marvel universe. The movie is set for release in theaters on December 18, 2026.

The upcoming film, directed once more by the team behind “Avengers: Endgame,” Joe and Anthony Russo, is poised to feature iconic Marvel Cinematic Universe characters such as Anthony Mackie’s Captain America and Chris Hemsworth’s Thor. Additionally, it will introduce fresh elements to the series, including the newly introduced Fantastic Four. Furthermore, actors from the former X-Men film franchise, like Cumming, will also be part of the mind-bending action.

Should Fans Be Worried About Avengers: Doomsday?

Alan Cumming resuming work on set for “Avengers: Doomsday” may not significantly impact Marvel Studios’ grand multiverse movie, but there seem to be some intriguing developments regarding the upcoming Avengers film.

As the filming process for the new movie seems to be stretching out more and more, there’s growing apprehension about whether it will actually meet its planned release date in December 2026.

It seems the word is that things are moving quickly on the “Doomsday” set, with the train already in motion. This was supported by actress Rebecca Romijn’s recent comments at San Diego Comic-Con, where she mentioned that although they are deep into filming, the script for the project hasn’t been fully written yet (according to The Independent).

The screenplay is still a work in progress; they haven’t completed writing it yet. So far, the process has been incredibly enjoyable for everyone involved, but we’re still waiting to find out more details. To maintain secrecy, the creators are keeping the project close to their chests, ensuring that information remains under wraps.

Certainly, Marvel Studios isn’t unfamiliar with script revisions or alterations during filming, yet it seems reasonable to expect a well-oiled machine like the studio to be better prepared for a blockbuster like “Avengers: Doomsday“.

It’s notable given the recent statements by James Gunn, the newly appointed co-CEO of DC Studios, over the past few years. He’s emphasized that no DC Universe project will start unless the script is fully developed first.

As a cinephile keeping tabs on the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) developments, I’ve noticed that “Doomsday” shares some challenges with other MCU films. Although these issues can be addressed and rectified, it’s essential to keep an eye on the production process as we move forward with this new movie.
