Here is the first one with Captain America.
A third teaser featuring X-Men which leaked out the other day will be next.
So here’s the Endgame connection I was wondering about..
Imo I think they should have used Quantum mania as partial hype machine for the Kang, he could have been in the movie especially in flashbacks but gone for the most duration of the movie, while Modok should have been developed into proper main villain with real motivation and revenge instead of a joke character we got and maybe by the end credit they could have showed F4 fighting and losing to Kang to build the hype.

I think Kevin saw that whole Kang storyline starting from Loki show and going into Qauntummania just didn’t attract much hype, and that movie already “spent” Kang as the villain, so audience would see no urgency and be hesitant to watch big event movie about bad guy who was already beaten by ants, even if they used all different more powerful Kang variant.
They really should have just done a post credit where Kang walked out of some MacGuffin into the room decimated by ants and said, “Ahhh, all according to plan” smiled and cut. But no, they had to make him look weak. One of the main problems with that movie. But any good writer shoulda been able to fix anything. I just think the corporate guys panicked as soon as stuff wasn’t making a bullion dollars after Endgame, not understanding it was gonna need to build to that again.

It’s just a guess on my part, but I think @Atlantisjust meant going with Kang as originally planned but with a different actor. With all the Kang variants Marvel Studios could have been able to do it.
Thank you, that’s exactly why. I didn’t think it needed to be said, but they’ve recast roles before, and Kang has always been more of an Avengers foe, especially for the bulk of the 70s era.
I think they should stuck with Kang too, especially since the rumored Steve angle is right out of a Kang storyline. They just can’t stop robbing Peter to pay Paul in the MCU. One of the biggest things that annoy me as the yrs go on. Watching them waste good stories by doing them too early to be impactful.

You don’t know why they didn’t go with Kang?

They were definitely done with Kang. And I can understand why they went with RDJ as Doom. He instantly increased interest in the MCU and the next film. Will he be good? I have no idea. I don’t even know if they plan to link Doom with Stark or just pretend RDJ is Victor von Doom (an entirely different person). But I totally understand why they have gone the way they did.

I’m not feeling it either. Also still concerned about casting Downey as Doom. He just doesn’t have the gravitas, the presence, for Doom (in my opinion). I see no reason they couldn’t have gone with Kang. However I do like the idea of Steve coming back; Falcon needs to be Falcon.

You will get a new cast of X-Men (well, maybe not Wolverine).
I’m shocked people are so up in arms over this. MCU had a great core team for many movies. They retired that team (partly to save money). Their movies started doing much worse. They are bringing that team back (partly) to reset their universe. And people are upset. If you didn’t want to see the A-list cast again, you should have bought more tickets for the Eternals.
I wanna disagree with you, but as someone who still saw everything in theater opening night, I felt like I was a minority. Your take has some real truth to it!
