It’s been six years since Avengers: Endgame, and the team is finally reuniting! Marvel Studios went all out with a five-and-a-half-hour livestream to unveil the cast of Avengers: Doomsday, and they really took their time. The reveal was done through a single continuous shot of a long row of directors’ chairs, each labeled with an actor’s name. Every thirteen minutes, the camera would slowly pan to the right, revealing a new name—then nothing but that chair for another thirteen minutes. The lineup includes a mix of MCU favourites, X-Men legends, the upcoming Fantastic Four, and Thunderbolts*.

But he’s not coming back as Iron Man, he’s stepping into a brand-new role as Doctor Doom, which was first revealed at last year’s Comic-Con.
