According to industry insider, Cryptic HD QUALITY, Marvel Studios is going to introduce a few one-off Marvel heroes and villains that have never been seen before in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. These characters are set to appear in one or two of these movies and are unlikely to be shown on the big screen again when the saga ends. These are not original characters that Marvel is making up specifically for these movies, but they are already existing characters who have never been seen in a Marvel Studios movie to this point.

It's an interesting idea that Marvel Studios might introduce characters to play a role in movies as significant as Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, as it will provide a level of freshness. Typically, Marvel only features well-known characters in movies of this stature. Therefore, the decision to potentially bring in some characters who haven't been seen before does risk-taking people out of the story that has been building. However, if they had a purpose, then it would only increase star power. While the identities of the heroes and villains are unknown, there's a chance that many Marvel characters whose audiences have been desperate to see could be brought to the big screen.

It is believed that there are more characters set to be officially announced for Avengers: Doomsday at some stage in the future. This is something Marvel and Robert Downey Jr. Even teased on Instagram, and fans are waiting patiently to see whose name might end up on the back of the chairs next. However, whether they end up being these one-off characters remains to be seen. There's a chance that Marvel might hold back certain names, and the one-off heroes and villains would potentially fall into that category to keep them as a surprise for fans at the moment.

If there are any movies where one-off characters can be brought in, then Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars are them. These two movies are going to lean heavily into the multiverse, which is a saga that's expected to end after Avengers: Secret Wars. Therefore, new heroes and villains could be brought in from different timelines simply to be part of this specific storyline before being taken away, either by being killed or by returning to their timeline. It would then allow Marvel to recast the characters in other films during a different timeline outside of what Avengers: Doomsday is set to be operating in.
