New scoops from industry insider Daniel Richtman have surfaced, offering fresh insights into Avengers 5.According to a post by @MarvelNewsFilms on Twitter, Richtman revealed that the upcoming movie will undergo several significant changes, particularly in its storyline and the portrayal of its villain. One of the most exciting revelations is the studio's plan to reintroduce Kang the Conqueror to the franchise, but with a completely new actor taking on the iconic role. This change hints at a fresh direction for the character and possibly the overall narrative arc of the series. Additionally, the post suggests that filming will commence sooner than expected, fueling anticipation and excitement among fans eager to see what Marvel has in store for the next chapter of the Avengers saga.

Firstly, the source revealed that Avengers 5 will also include the multiverse, continuing a trend seen in recent MCU projects. While this is intriguing, the post mentioned that the film aims to "stay grounded," suggesting it will incorporate multiverse elements without making them the central focus. Marvel has previously stated their intent to create more character-driven projects, and Avengers 5 might be one of them. Interestingly, Kang is rumored to make an appearance, although it is not clear if he will be the main villain. Fans initially speculated he would be the next major antagonist of the franchise, but after the firing of Jonathan Majors, the actor who played Kang the Conqueror, due to his conviction for assault and harassment, these speculations have shifted.

Richtman also hinted at upcoming news regarding the character, specifically about the new actor playing him. Colman Domingo and John David Washington are two prominent names being considered for the role.

Finally, Richtman mentioned that the filming date for Avengers 5 has been decided. While it was previously stated that filming would begin sometime in 2025, fans speculated it would start in the latter half of the year. However, the insider claims that filming will begin in January next year, with principal photography taking place in the United Kingdom. Details about the movie remain scarce, and it currently lacks a director. Despite this, anticipation and excitement are building, especially considering the box office success of previous Avengers films, particularly Endgame. Fans are eager to see what Marvel has in store for this next chapter in the franchise. With the reintroduction of Kang the Conqueror and significant changes to the storyline, the upcoming film promises to bring fresh excitement to the beloved series.
