Summary

  • Joseph Quinn makes a big appearance in both The Fantastic Four and Avengers: Doomsday.
  • Quinn hopes to run into familiar MCU face Will Poulter in Avengers: Doomsday.
  • No Guardians actors in Avengers: Doomsday cast, but more announcements may come in future.

The movie titled “The Fantastic Four: First Footsteps” by Marvel Studios, slated for release on July 25, 2025, is one of their major releases this year. This is the long-awaited introduction of the famous superhero team into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The trailer has generated a lot of buzz, with viewers eager to see how Johnny Storm/The Human Torch, portrayed by Joseph Quinn, will contribute to the franchise and shape its future. However, audiences will get a glimpse of Quinn in more than just “The Fantastic Four: First Footsteps”; he’s set to appear elsewhere as well.

In the latest announcement about the “Avengers: Doomsday” cast, Quinn found himself among an eclectic mix of familiar and fresh faces within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). While the Fantastic Four members are set to appear in the film, Quinn is eagerly anticipating a chance encounter with an MCU veteran who has been missing from the franchise for quite some time.

Quinn chatted with IGN about being included in the cast for “Avengers: Doomsday”, expressing, “I guess it was a bit of a relief. It was quite enjoyable.” Later, he added, “I feel I’m among great company. I really hope Will (Poulter) is there as well, as we share a good laugh. However, the journey in Marvel is lengthy, so here’s to hoping, since it would be exciting.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Poulter portrays Adam Warlock. He first appeared in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, but since then, he hasn’t been featured in the franchise. However, Poulter has expressed his willingness to reprise the role again and hinted at the possibility of collaborating with Quinn. The last film left open the prospect for the Guardians franchise to continue, but as of now, there are no definite plans for future Guardians of the Galaxy stories beyond Marvel’s announcement that Chris Pratt’s Star-Lord will reappear at some point.

It appears that neither the actors from “Guardians of the Galaxy” nor any of them have been confirmed for the cast of “Avengers: Doomsday,” and it seems unlikely that they will be seen in “The Fantastic Four: First Steps.” This means that a potential meeting between Quinn and Poulter, characters who might appear in these films, must wait for a future project. However, Marvel has hinted at revealing more cast members for “Avengers: Doomsday” later on, so there’s still a possibility that Poulter could become part of the blockbuster movie in the future.

The upcoming film “Avengers: Doomsday” is expected to have a significant impact on the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it boasts a large cast of characters. However, Robert Downey Jr’s role as Doctor Doom has sparked speculation about the extent of the Fantastic Four’s involvement. Given that Doom is usually their primary antagonist, it’s likely that the characters portrayed by Quinn and his co-stars will play significant roles. There’s also a possibility that Marvel may use “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” to hint at or even introduce Downey Jr’s character as Doctor Doom before “Avengers: Doomsday,” thereby setting the stage for the storyline.
