I’ve been wanting to get back to podcasting semi-regularly for some time now. Then the Avengers: Doomsday casting dropped yesterday and I had to talk about it. So I recorded myself talking to myself for your enjoyment.
I’m planning on doing another pod soon about the state of Star Wars, which is an ongoing concern.
The announced cast for Doomsday:
Chris Hemsworth as Thor
Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm / Invisible Woman
Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson / Captain America
Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes / The Winter Soldier
Letitia Wright as Shuri / Black Panther
Paul Rudd as Scott Lang / Ant-Man
Wyatt Russell as John Walker / U.S. Agent
Tenoch Huerta Mejia as Namor
Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm / The Thing
Simu Liu as Shang-Chi
Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova
Kelsey Grammer as Dr. Hank McCoy / Beast
Lewis Pullman as Bob / Sentry
Danny Ramirez as Joaquin Torres / Falcon
Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm / Human Torch
David Harbour as Alexei Shostakov / Red Guardian
Winston Duke as M'Baku
Hannah John-Kamen as Ava Starr / Ghost
Tom Hiddleston as Loki
Patrick Stewart as Professor Charles Xavier
Ian McKellen as Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto
Alan Cumming as Kurt Wagner / Nightcrawler
Rebecca Romijn as Mystique
James Marsden as Scott Summers / Cyclops
Channing Tatum as Remy LeBeau / Gambit
Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards / Mr. Fantastic
Robert Downey Jr. as Victor Von Doom / Doctor Doom
Bestill my nerdy heart.
Balancing out my enthusiasm for the cast is my doubts about the rushed nature of the film and the short-term mentality of casting RDJ as Doctor Doom.
