Marvel Studios is reportedly eyeing Liam Neeson, star of Taken, to play The Beyonder in Avengers Doomsday and Secret Wars in the MCU.
As you may know, Marvel Studios is currently preparing for Phase 6 and 7 with various movie projects that they have lined up. However, fans are eagerly waiting for the two latest Avengers movies, Doomsday and Secret Wars.
1. Rumors Liam Neeson will be The Beyonder in the MCU
Twitter account @Update_Marvel recently spread a rumor stating that Marvel Studios is considering hiring renowned actor Liam Neeson. The rumor claims that Liam Neeson will play an important character in the Avengers movie universe, namely The Beyonder.
However, more information about this news is still not available, and Marvel Studios has also not confirmed the rumors about The Beyonder.
The Beyonder is one of the most powerful cosmic entities in Marvel Comics. The character has an important role in the Secret Wars storyline, both the 1980s version and the 2015 release.
In the 1980s version, the Beyonder was the cause of Battleworld and the events of Secret Wars itself. He kidnapped various villains and superheroes to force them to fight each other in Battleworld.
2. Doctor Doom will take on the powers of The Beyonder
In a story in the Secret Wars comic released in 2015, Doctor Doom was seen stealing powers from The Beyonder to form Battleworld and start Secret Wars.
Rumors are circulating that Marvel Studios will be adapting the Secret Wars version from 2015, which means Doctor Doom will be drawing power from The Beyonder. With Robert Downey Jr. already cast as Doctor Doom, it’s possible that this rumor could come true.
The Avengers Doomsday movie will be released in 2026, while Secret Wars will air in 2027. Marvel Studios has officially introduced Robert Downey Jr. as Victor Von Doom, also known as Doctor Doom.
It is possible that RDJ will play the main villain in the next phase after the legal issues involving Jonathan Majors.
In addition, in connection with the two films, rumors are circulating about another actor, Liam Nesson, who may participate in this project. Let’s wait for the next update.
