According to a new report from Deadline, Emmy nominee Pedro Pascal has just wrapped up filming his scenes as Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic in Avengers: Doomsday. This comes after the theatrical debut of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, which has already earned a worldwide gross of over $382 million at the box office.
The fifth installment to Marvel Studios’ blockbuster franchise is still slated to arrive in theaters on December 18, 2026, while its follow-up movie Avengers: Secret Wars will debut on December 17, 2027.
Why are fans worried about Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards?
Since the next Avengers movie is still in production, it currently unclear if Pascal is the only cast member who had already completed shooting. Fans have already started worrying about Mister Fantastic’s fate in Doomsday, with some theorizing that the hero might die because of how short Pascal’s time was on the set.
Avengers: Doomsday is being directed by Avengers: Endgame filmmakers Joe and Anthony Russo from a screenplay written by Stephen McFeely. The latest installment will feature the return of Marvel vets Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Hemsworth, with Chris Evans rumored to appear. However, this time, the Oppenheimer actor will be playing a completely different role in the form of Victor von Doom/Doctor Doom. The ensemble cast will also include Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Paul Rudd, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Florence Pugh, Letitia Wright, Tenoch Huerta Mejia, Kelsey Grammer, Lewis Pullman, David Harbour, Wyatt Russell, and Danny Ramirez.

Following the movie’s viral casting announcement video, Feige previously confirmed they haven’t really revealed the entire cast yet, teasing more casting announcements in the future.
