Avengers Doomsday – X-Men stars ‘in talks to return as variants of same role’ | Films | Entertainment

According to the leak: “Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Evan Peters are in talks to return as Quicksilver in the next Avengers movies.” Marvel fans will know that Taylor-Johnson briefly played the X-Men speedster in 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, as the brother of Scarlet Witch. However, he died during the film’s final battle, adding to his sister’s trauma in WandaVision.

During the events of WandaVision, Evan Peters reprised his take on Quicksilver from the Fox X-Men prequel movies set in another universe. However, he turned out to be some guy called Ralph Bohner. Yet by the sounds of it, two Quicksilver variants that look like Aaron and Evan will be back for Avengers Doomsday and Secret Wars, along with Scarlet Witch, who appeared to perish in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.

Avengers Doomsday hits UK cinemas on May 1, 2026.
