Anthony Mackie’s Dream X-Men Team-Up in Avengers: Doomsday Will Blow Your Mind!

by

Although it may not make its 2025 release date, the upcoming “Avengers: Doomsday” promises to be the next significant collaboration in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films, and anticipation for this movie’s extensive cast is steadily growing. With familiar Avengers joining forces with eagerly anticipated X-Men debuts, the forthcoming Marvel production seems poised to establish a significant milestone in the MCU. Now, Anthony Mackie has begun discussing the film, focusing on which mutants he’s particularly enthusiastic about working alongside, and honestly, his taste is quite refined.

As I shared with Screen Rant, there are X-Men characters I’m eager to collaborate with. Whether it’s due to nostalgia from my childhood or the excitement of a possible joint adventure, my selections align well with what fans would be thrilled to witness. To start, I mentioned a character who has led the mutant team at one point or another – a nod to my past and the potential fun we could have together.

I’m quite fond of Cyclops, especially as my preferred X-Men character. For years now, I’ve carried an action figure of him on my keychain. Back in high school, the X-Men cartoon was incredibly popular – even before the movies were made. Ever since then, I’ve been a dedicated fan of Cyclops, and I can hardly contain my excitement – fingers crossed – about his possible inclusion in upcoming projects.

Although Cyclops might not receive as much attention as characters like Wolverine or Deadpool, for those who grew up watching “X-Men: The Animated Series,” he was the clear, wise leader and emotional center of the team. Characters like Sam Wilson, known for their leadership in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), partnering with Scott Summers could create a powerful, strategic alliance, particularly in a critical movie such as “Doomsday.

Instead, Anthony Mackie didn’t limit his Marvel Universe companionship to just Cyclops. Intriguingly, when posed the question of who he’d like to socialize with in real life from the MCU, he opted for a choice that oozes enjoyment:

I’m thrilled at the prospect of spending time with Xavier, Beast, and the rest of their crew. However, Nightcrawler is my absolute favorite. If given a choice to spend time with one character, it would be an unforgettable two weeks with Nightcrawler exploring the French Quarter during Mardi Gras.

To put it simply, if watching that show required a Disney+ subscription, I would watch it without a second thought. The blend of Nightcrawler’s teleportation abilities, Mackie’s charm, and the vibrant backdrop of New Orleans during Mardi Gras promises a hilarious comedy with a lot of emotional depth.

As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news! The actors who brought Cyclops and Nightcrawler to life in “Adjustment Bureau,” James Marsden and Alan Cumming, will be reprising their roles in the upcoming “Avengers: Doomsday”! With the Russo brothers returning as directors and an extraordinary cast that includes Paul Rudd, Florence Pugh, Pedro Pascal, Tom Hiddleston, Robert Downey Jr., and more, this film seems to be a perfect convergence of the Avengers and X-Men universes. It’s like a full-circle moment for both teams!

Should Anthony Mackie’s dream come true, we’re in for some unforgettable mutant moments starring the new Captain. If not, Marvel, I strongly recommend considering “Captain America & Nightcrawler: Mardi Gras Mayhem” – a thrilling collaboration you won’t want to miss!

You can catch Avengers: Doomsday when it releases in theaters on May 1, 2026.
