Returning to the Endgame Funeral Scene
Industry insiders including scoopster James Mack suggest that Marvel is filming new footage set during Tony Stark’s funeral from Avengers: Endgame.
- Direct Sequel Connection: The re-release of Avengers: Endgame in theaters is not just a marketing stunt. It appears Doomsday will act as a direct narrative successor, potentially using the funeral as a pivotal anchoring point (02:12).
- The Emotional Aftermath: Actor Anthony Mackie and director Anthony Russo have hinted that the film deals heavily with the grief left behind by Tony Stark. Revisiting the funeral allows the story to explore unseen interactions that contextualize why a new threat now wears a familiar face (02:37).
- A Strategic Retcon: Marvel has a history of adding new layers to past events without breaking canon. This new scene likely happens “off camera” during the original funeral, providing a hint or Easter egg regarding Victor von Doom’s origins (04:03).
The Victor von Doom Identity Mystery
The biggest question remains why the MCU’s greatest villain looks exactly like its greatest hero.
- The Mask Stays On: Current reports indicate that the Avengers will not see Doom’s face for most of the film. The reveal of his resemblance to Tony Stark is being saved for a massive emotional payoff, likely involving Peter Parker in Avengers: Secret Wars (03:16).
- Identity Theft vs Resurrection: Analysts argue it is far more likely that Victor von Doom is a separate entity who has stolen Tony Stark’s identity as a manipulation tactic. This would explain the need to revisit the funeral to show how or when this process began (05:27).
- The Steve Rogers Connection: There is speculation that the new footage involves a private moment with Steve Rogers. This could reveal new details about his time travel mission and how it inadvertently opened the door for Doom(04:54).
