Channing Tatum and James Marsden reportedly to return for Avengers: Secret Wars
Rumors suggest that Channing Tatum, James Marsden, and Ian McKellen may have roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that extend beyond Avengers: Doomsday. Reports indicate these actors are likely to return for Avengers: Secret Wars, potentially keeping several legacy X-Men characters involved as the Multiverse Saga approaches its conclusion.
Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has noted that the 2015 Secret Wars comic storyline will influence the direction of Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. The goal is to use the conclusion of the saga to rebuild and retool the Marvel Multiverse for a new era. This transition may involve multiple versions of characters, such as Cyclops, as the studio prepares for an upcoming X-Men reboot featuring Kit Connor.
