Batman star Daniel Richtman reported that Robert Pattinson met with Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige to discuss the possibility of a role in an MCU project.
Pattinson is reportedly preparing to return as Bruce Wayne/’The Dark Knight’ in the sequel to The Batman, with director Matt Reeves hoping to helm a third film in the series.
However, it was recently revealed that Pattinson will reunite with Christopher Nolan for his next film.
According to recent rumors, Marvel Studios is casting a “secret role” for Avengers: Doomsday, which will evolve into a more prominent role for a “well-known Marvel character” in Avengers: Secret Wars. Reports suggest Pattinson met with Kevin Feige for a potential MCU role, sparking fans’ imaginations about what this could mean. However, since these are just rumors, nothing has been confirmed.
Avengers: Doomsday is rumored to feature Robert Downey Jr., known for his role as Tony Stark/’Iron Man,’ returning as Doctor Doom. The film is set to release on May 1, 2026, and will be followed by Avengers: Secret Wars, hitting theaters on May 7, 2027. These films will follow the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame, and will be directed by the returning Russo brothers.
“Being able to create stories and explore characters within the Marvel Universe has been a lifelong dream, and we discovered a strong connection in the films we’ve made. Collaborating with Kevin, Lou, and the entire Marvel team once again allows us to continue this epic storytelling journey with new and astonishing thrills for fans and ourselves,” said the Russos during the SDCC panel.
Online, speculation and fan theories are rampant, with many suggesting the character Pattinson might play is none other than The Beyonder.
