Champions/Young Avengers
Alex S: Hey Alex and Lizzie, thanks for everything you do as always! Based on teases you’ve made in the past… do you think Kamala/Kate/Cassie will be all teaming up together in Avengers: Doomsday?
Alex Perez: It’s possible but I heard it was meant to be saved for Secret Wars, not Doomsday, so we’ll see.
Alex S: Could you possibly confirm that Iman, Hailee and Kathryn will return for Doomsday?
Alex Perez: I know Iman Vellani is returning. Hailee Steinfeld is very likely since they’re both together and Kathryn Newton could return with them because right now, Kamala is in California looking for her. So, it’s likely we’ll see them together.
Wade: One of the leaks shows the Young Avengers, so does that mean they form in Doomsday or before, or has that changes since this concept was made?
Alex Perez: They won’t be formed before. I think it’s possible in Secret Wars.
SaltyTrog: Hey Alex, thanks for doing these. With the concept art seeming to show that there are plans for the Young Avengers/Champions involved in the story to come, any hints on what to expect from for Cassie’s story arc in the future?
Alex Perez: I really have no clue there at the moment.
[Editor’s Note: I know some people get annoyed when Alex answers that he doesn’t know something, but at least he’s honest about what he does and does not know. And I’m here to tell you that if anyone is going around claiming they know *everything*, then that’s your first clue not to trust what they say. ~ Lizzie]
j.b.c.a.: Hi, Alex! I hope you’re doing well! Mephisto? Dormammu? Ironheart? What’s going on there?
Alex Perez: Magic vs Tech. I don’t know too much about Ironheart just yet.
j.b.c.a.: In the recent leak of concept art we saw some pics of a “bar scene” that featured someone that I’m 99.99% sure was supposed to be Tommy. Is he in Doomsday/Secret Wars? … How?
Alex Perez: It was Tommy. How will he be in Secret Wars? We’ll find out, won’t we? But to clue you in, I heard a rumor that Billy and Tommy reuniting will play out similarly as it did in the comics, during the middle of a mission at the most random possible moment.
Daredevil: Born Again, Defenders & Punisher
Vacanus: Hey Alex, thanks for doing these as always. I know this may be a bit early since it just was announced, but have you heard anything about who Matthew Lillard may be playing in DD:BA S2?
Alex Perez: I don’t know, actually.
joshua:Hey Alex, have you heard anything about Elektra being in Born Again S2?
Alex Perez: I haven’t. Although, I know the Defenders are expected to return. So it will be interesting to see how that plays out in the second season, and how Matt will convince them to step out of the shadows after what happens in season 1.
AX: Hey Alex, thank you for doing this! What can you tease about Daredevil: Born Again season 2? What are the odds we see Elektra and/or Typhoid Mary anytime soon?
Alex Perez: New York City will be a very different landscape from when we start DD:BA to when we finish the first season. When we start the second season, it’s going to be a really interesting thing to see how martial law and vigilantes being outlawed will play out. I’m curious to see how the story will not only affect the main storyline of the show, but send ripples through the rest of the MCU. Because one thing this show does really well is tie into different aspects of the MCU that are sometimes related and sometimes not so related.
cosmicriver: Hi Alex & Lizzie, hope you’re both doing great, once again thankful for these Q&As and for the server! When Jessica Jones and Luke Cage eventually are reintroduced into the MCU, do you think they would be a married couple like in the comics?
Alex Perez: I’d love to see that happen.
Dominic G: Howdy Alex, I hope you’re doing better, so just 2 questions… I know it seems likely we see the Defenders coming back with how DD:BA is progressing, so I wanted to ask what you think the chance is we see Finn Jones’ Iron fist return? (He really needs to be done justice, like Black Bolt was in Doctor Strange 2)
Alex Perez: I think he will be back. Just, not the way most people would want.
Hifive326: Any teases for the Punisher special? I’m hoping Dinah and Curtis return in it.
Alex Perez: He has some unfinished business in DD:BA that he needs to take care of in his special.
Ghost Rider
Laurie Rolfe: Will Nic Cage’s Ghost Rider return for Avengers: Doomsday?
Alex Perez: I have heard he’s set to return, but not in Doomsday.
Agent Alex Mahone: Sup, guys! Hello to Alex, hope you’re doing well. Is there anything you can tell about who’s gonna be the MCU’s Ghost Rider now?
Alex Perez: I don’t know much about casting info. It’s rare. Character-wise, I haven’t heard much either. Other than it’s possible, he’ll likely be an agent of Mephisto before he sets off on his own path.
Guardians of the Galaxy
Ratchet1490: Perfect time to do a Q&A! It looks like Star-Lord is going to be a big part of Doomsday/Secret Wars. Do you have any information on his role in the story? He seems like he’s getting around quite a bit in the leaked concept art!
Alex Perez: I don’t at this time, actually.
toastef: Hey there! You know, with big leaks, come big questions… Some art showcases Star-Lord lounging with White Vision. What could lead to/come of this odd pairing?
Alex Perez: It’s like the MCU’s version of Two and a Half Men.
daofeiboy: Hi Alex, Lizzie & CC staff. Since James Gunn clearly has took a lot of poetic licenses to adapt Phyla-Vell as a character to the MCU, should we expect her to have her brother still at all? Genis-Vell. It looks like they are just going to skip his existence over, like they do to Moondragon.
Alex Perez: I have no info on that.
Hawkeye & Echo
laser_gum: Hey Alex. Thanks for doing these. Is there plans further down the line post Secret Wars to have a street level Avengers team consisting of Spider-Man, Daredevil, Punisher, Kate Bishop, Echo, and Clint Barton?
Alex Perez: It’s a possibility. We’re going to see vigilantes being outlawed in NYC, and that’s going to tick a couple of people off. So we’ll see how that goes.
Liam | Kate Bishop Fan: Hey Alex, hope you are doing well. With Marvels new TV strategy with wanting to do multi-season regular shows, Do you think Hawkeye will get more than 2 seasons (should S2 get made)?
Alex Perez: I know there have been talks and ideas spun around about a 2nd season of Hawkeye and now that I have some context, I’ll say that there is a possible storyline which stems from DD:BA that could lead into a Hawkeye season 2 storyline, but I’d rather have that be saved for something else personally.
Theor: Hey Alex, I hope you are doing well! When is the next time we will see my girls Echo and G’iah?
Alex Perez: Echo I heard a rumor about the next season of DD:BA. G’iah, it’ll be a minute.
Hulk and She-Hulk
BraveFire: Hi Alex Perez and Lizzie, how are you? Hope you have something to delight us Hulk fans. Lately, I feel like Marvel wants to adapt Future Imperfect with Smart Hulk vs Maestro basically.From what you’ve heard, what are the next comics that Marvel is likely to adapt for Hulk’s future in the Avengers movies and his World War Hulk movie?
Alex Perez: I have no comment beyond Secret Wars.
BraveFire: Now that Captain America: Brave New World has released, how do you think he will be a central element in setting up a Hulk movie?
Alex Perez: Not certain they’ll tie in much.
Ratchet1490: Perfect time to do a Q&A! The one piece of concept art that interested me featured Hulk and She-Hulk in a medieval town with (maybe) Skarr? What’s going on with that?
Alex Perez: Greenland in Secret Wars.
cosmicriver: Have you heard anything regarding She-Hulk/Jennifer Walters’ role in Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, whether she would be part of an Avengers team or on her own?
Alex Perez: To my understanding, she doesn’t want to be an Avenger. But she gets forced into it anyways, as we saw from the concept art.
Setyourownlimit: What’s the craziest/exciting thing you’ve heard about the Hulk?
Alex Perez: The return of him going Savage.
Setyourownlimit: How do you think the Leader, Red Hulk, Betty Ross and the Abomination will fit into the World War Hulk movie?
Alex Perez: I don’t even know if that’s going to happen in the current landscape we’re in. But we’ll see.
Marvel Animation
Wade: Hey Alex, hope you’re doing well. Do you know if the rumoured R Rated Animated Venom Project is still happening or not
Alex Perez: Nope.
Theor: Hey Alex, I hope you are doing well! What are the chances that we will see Marvel animated show heroes interact with the greater MCU in Doomsday/Secret Wars? I’m thinking Exiles from What If…?, X-Men 97, YFNSM, Zombies, Miles from ATSV…
Alex Perez: There’s a very big chance. They were doing tests for live-action and animation interacting on screen. Most likely Miss Minutes, but there’s a chance for other characters as well, I’m told.
Moon Knight
Jace: Hey Alex, I hope you’re doing good and keeping your head up! So, now that Brad Winderbaum kinda said that Moon Knight will come back in some fashion, where and when do you think we’ll see his return?
Alex Perez: Midnight Sons. Or possibly even Daredevil: Born Again. Reason why is because he’s headed to New York. What for? No idea.
Leia🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷: Greetings and salutations! Hope y’all doing well! Are there any plans to include Moon Knight in future films?
Alex Perez: In Midnight Sons. Not in the Avengers films, though.
Moon Knight Reading Guide: 1975-2000
Nova
CamCam: Hello, Alex. It’s nice to see you again. Has the development pause on shows like Nova, Strange Academy, and Terror Inc. changed any potential post-Secret Wars plans Marvel may have, particularly about Nova? I remember you suggesting that Nova especially would present a larger future for the MCU’s cosmic corner after the Multiverse Saga concludes, so I’m wondering if that has changed.
Alex Perez: Nova is still happening.
Be on the lookout for part 3 of the latest Q&A with Alex Perez next week!
