Which existing MCU characters make surprising appearances in the trailer?

Question

Accepted Answer

The trailer features several surprising returns by familiar MCU characters, including Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr as Victor von Doom

The first full trailer for Avengers: Doomsday shows surprising appearances from well-known existing MCU characters, headlined by Robert Downey Jr returning not as Iron Man but as the masked supervillain Victor von Doom. It also includes the unexpected return of Chris Evans, who appears in a scene with Thor while wielding Mjolnir, alongside other recognisable faces such as Tom Hiddleston’s Loki. Beyond those two major surprises, the footage also brings back a wide range of established characters, including Black Panther, Namor, Cyclops, Mystique, Magneto, Professor X, and Ant-Man.
Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans return in standout scenes
Robert Downey Jr appears as Victor von Doom, specifically framed as a masked supervillain rather than his earlier Iron Man role. Chris Evans also returns unexpectedly, sharing a scene with Thor in which he wields Thor’s hammer, Mjolnir, leaving the God of Thunder visibly stunned.
Loki returns after concluding in 2023
Tom Hiddleston appears as Loki, marking his first appearance since the second season of Loki concluded in 2023. The trailer therefore positions Loki as one of the notable returning figures among the established cast.
Multiple familiar MCU characters appear, including Black Panther and Namor
The trailer includes Letitia Wright’s Black Panther and Tenoch Huerta’s Namor, both shown among the familiar faces. It also features James Marsden’s Cyclops and Rebecca Romijn’s Mystique, with Mystique presented in a comic-accurate costume.
Other known characters shown include Magneto, Professor X, and Ant-Man
Additional existing characters shown include Sir Ian McKellen’s Magneto and Patrick Stewart’s Professor X. The trailer also features Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man alongside Kathryn Newton’s Cassie Lang, while other teases include Channing Tatum’s Gambit and Simu Liu’s character as Shang-Chi.
