Marvel's Avengers: Doomsday Film Leaves Key X‑Men Heroes Out

The upcoming Marvel crossover film *Avengers: Doomsday* re‑introduces the X‑Men but omits several major female characters. Promotional material and early concept art showcase primarily male heroes, while figures such as Rogue, Storm and Jean Grey are notably absent. The Russo brothers declined to confirm whether the missing heroines are dead in the story, only noting that their legacy remains important. New footage hints at a disaster at the X‑Mansion, possibly involving Sentinel‑type robots, fueling speculation about the characters' fate. Critics and fans have highlighted the gender disparity, pointing to a long‑standing bias in Marvel’s marketing that continues to marginalise female heroes despite recent successes for characters like Captain Marvel and Black Panther.
