When Iron Man kicked off the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2008, Gwyneth Paltrow was alongside for the journey as Pepper Potts. Minimize to right this moment, the actress has made seven appearances because the character, the final one being in Avengers: Endgame, the twenty second of the Marvel motion pictures so as. Now there are rumblings that Paltrow would possibly reprise Pepper in Avengers: Doomsday, and followers have lots of ideas on this potential look.
This all began when scooper MyTimeToShineHello shared that Paltrow “can be again” for the upcoming Marvel film. No additional context was offered, however these few phrases have been sufficient to get followers speaking. Now, given what occurred to Tony Stark in Avengers: Endgame, a few of you would possibly questioning why Pepper Potts would even be included in Doomsday, like @ForbiddenArms is:
However why? Tony is lifeless
That’s proper, the Tony Stark of the principle MCU actuality has lengthy since departed, having sacrificed his life to make use of the Infinity Stones to wipe out the alternate timeline Thanos and his military. However as we discovered final summer season at San Diego Comedian-Con, Downey can be returning to the MCU to play Physician Doom, with Avengers: Doomsday set as his first confirmed look. So @homelandermoney’s statement about Paltrow allegedly exhibiting up in Doomsday is on the cash, they usually fittingly included a gif of Homelander from The Boys:
Thats gonna be loopy with robert downey within the combine
It will certainly be loopy, particularly if the hypothesis is true that Downey’s Physician Doom can be a Tony Stark variant reasonably than the standard Victor Von Doom. Simply think about seeing somebody with the identical face as your late husband, solely this particular person is threatening everything of the Marvel multiverse. It’s laborious to say after we’ll study if that’s the case or not, however so far as common emotions about Pepper Potts doubtlessly showing in Doomsday go, @BS_phere had this optimistic sentiment:
Would love to observe if occur
Along with studying how Pepper’s been doing since since Tony died, which might additionally imply checking in with their daughter Morgan, it might be cool if we may see her go well with again up as Rescue. Nevertheless, on the unfavorable aspect of issues, @infamouskid mentioned this:
Don’t care in endgame and received’t care in doomsday
Lastly, @WayneWaldropW had this amusing remark about if Gwyneth Paltrow finally ends up showing in Avengers: Doomsday:
However she will not keep in mind it anyhow
This refers to how Gwyneth Paltrow has repeatedly forgotten she appeared in Spider-Man: Homecoming. To be honest, no less than she will be able to poke enjoyable at her MCU cluelessness. Frankly, only a few years again, the prospect of Paltrow ever showing on this franchise once more didn’t appear doable provided that she retired from performing. However now that she’s making her performing return in Marty Supreme on the finish of this 12 months, we should always no less than entertain the chance she’ll reprise Pepper Potts in Avengers: Doomsday. Actually, I wouldn’t be stunned if she popped up in Avengers: Secret Wars too.
Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters on Could 1, 2026, and if/when official affirmation of Gwyneth Paltrow’s involvement in it comes alongside, we’ll let you realize. Use your Disney+ subscription to revisit Pepper Potts’ earlier cinematic adventures.
