Summary

  • A 2000s-inspired Avengers team has been brought together in a concept trailer from 2020.
  • This Avengers team includes the likes of Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man, Hugh Jackman's Wolverine, Wesley Snipes' Blade and Nicolas Cage's Ghost Rider.
  • This team could form in Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, if these classic actors reprise their roles similarly to those returning heroes in Deadpool & Wolverine.

A concept trailer has imagined the Avengers coming together back in the 2000s, years before the iconic superhero team formed in the MCU. Marvel Studios first brought a live-action Avengers team together in 2012's eponymous The Avengers, working under the watchful eye of SHIELD and Nick Fury to stop Loki's invasion of New York City. Since then, the Avengers team has become a staple of the MCU, and has been through many different line-ups, set to once again be reinvented ahead of the MCU's Phase 6.

While Marvel Studios first brought together the Avengers in 2012, rounding off the MCU's Phase 1, a concept trailer shared by Dr Flashpoint back in 2020 imagines what the Avengers team could look like comprising heroes from Marvel's pre-MCU projects. This trailer replaces The Avengers' Loki with versions of MODOK and AIM. This 2000s-inspired Avengers team consists of heroes including Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man, Hugh Jackman's Wolverine, Ben Affleck's Daredevil and Eric Bana's Hulk, some of whom could reprise their roles in several upcoming MCU movies.
How Avengers 5 & 6 Could Bring Back Older Marvel Heroes Close Ever since Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige announced the development of two Avengers movies for Phase 6, since titled Doomsday and Secret Wars, there has been speculation about many classic Marvel actors returning to their old roles. Marvel Comics' Secret Wars event brought together many variants from across the multiverse, so it's likely 2027's Avengers: Secret Wars will do the same. This means past MCU characters and heroes from other Marvel franchises and classic projects can be featured.
This creates the perfect opportunity for some beloved actors to reprise their roles one last time. The possible impact of this was demonstrated in Marvel Studios' recent Deadpool & Wolverine, which marked the returns of Jennifer Garner's Elektra, Chris Evans' Human Torch, Wesley Snipes' Blade and Dafne Keen's X-23. Dr Flashpoint's concept trailer suggests even more heroes could be brought back for Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, including those from 2003's Hulk, 2007's Ghost Rider and 2002's Spider-Man franchise, among others.

All these heroes could be revealed to be multiversal variants of the versions in the MCU, making it easy and likely for them to interact with each other and the characters of the MCU in Phase 6. Massive incursion events are expected to destroy the multiverse in Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, with survivors perhaps being brought to Battleworld by Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom. If this happens, these heroes could form a 2000s-inspired Avengers team, helping the MCU's Earth's Mightiest Heroes to save the day.
