A major Marvel Cinematic Universe veteran may have just pulled a Tom Holland.
The MCU timeline is about to see the wrath of Doctor Doom, as Victor von Doom will serve as the antagonist for the Multiverse Saga. But as Earth's Mightiest Heroes get ready to reunite, another member is seemingly making his big-screen return.
In a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, Anthony Mackie revealed that filming the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday was like summer camp, allowing him to reunite with old friends and prepare to face Robert Downey Jr. on screen. But one of the stars he name-dropped was Paul Bettany, with the Captain America star stating, "I got to hang out with, you know, Paul Bettany, who I love."
The timing is ironic, as his comments arrive on the same day as Bettany's VisionQuest TV show is set to release its finale on Disney+, with the Phase 6 drama being the last project before the ensemble feature next month. As of writing, Marvel Studios has not commented on Mackie's response.
