Madripoor Set to Return in Upcoming Avengers: Doomsday Film

Pinewood Studios, UK — A recent leak from the set of Avengers: Doomsday has revealed the return of a significant location in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), hinting at the reappearance of a pivotal character. The leak, shared by an Instagram user, features footage showing the fictional city-state of Madripoor, a notorious criminal hub in Southeast Asia.

Madripoor has a rich history in Marvel comics, known for being a haven for rogues and villains, including the popular character Wolverine. In the MCU, Madripoor was last seen in the Disney+ series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, where it served as a hiding spot for Sharon Carter, played by Emily VanCamp.

During the series, Carter was revealed to be the Power Broker, the feared ruler of Madripoor’s underworld, but she has not appeared in the MCU since. The filming of Avengers: Doomsday, slated for release on May 1, 2026, suggests that her story may continue as the film incorporates major locations from past films.

As fans remember, the finale of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier left unresolved questions about Carter’s character arc, which began in 2014’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The visual of Madripoor in Doomsday could provide deeper context for her motives and actions going forward.

The highly anticipated Avengers: Doomsday will feature a massive ensemble cast, including returning favorites and newcomers alike. Notably, Robert Downey Jr. is set to reprise a version of his iconic role, now as Victor Von Doom. This movie is seen as a significant entry in the ongoing narrative of the MCU, especially following its integration with characters from Fox’s X-Men universe.

Footage from the set also suggested other familiar locations, potentially foreshadowing significant battles and alliances among mutant heroes. As the anticipation builds, fans have begun speculating about the possible return of characters like Wolverine, further intensifying interest in how the story will unfold.

Avengers: Doomsday promises to explore new narratives and characters within the MCU landscape, and the return of Madripoor is sure to play a crucial role.
