The Russo Brothers are assembling the Avengers again for Avengers: Doomsday and recruited Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom.
As the Marvel Studios production ramps up filming, all eyes will be on them, especially at locations where paparazzi could snap photos and leak spoilers.
However, the filmmakers recently revealed in an interview that they had planned for that and had been intentional about where they were filming. “We’re pretty good about shutting that down,” Joe Russo told Collider in an interview with Anthony Russo adding, “We’ve sort of strategized to hopefully be effective with that.” Joe admitted that a lot of the filming would be done in soundstages, saying, “We don’t want people getting photographs, so we are being pretty stringent.” For scenes outside, Anthony said, “The location work we are doing, we have picked those locations with that in mind, as well.” The filmmakers also told the publication that each of the Avengers films they are working on would take six months, “a standard-length shoot.” Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters on May 1, 2026, and Avengers: Secret Wars is scheduled for May 2027.
