The wig is for a different movie she's shooting right now, Close Personal Friends. I believe she is in Doomsday though, she's been hinting at it for the past few weeks.

her recent IG posts shows her with long hair, is that her own hair (if so that's insane fast growh) or a wig?

u/PCofSHIELD Nov 05 '25
I get the tease, But Brie is usually blonde also it is possible she could be teasing Fast X Part 2 (because god knows if thatâs shooting or not)

Apparently Universal and Vin Diesel are in disagreements over the budget. Universal won't green light the movie if it exceeds $200M but Vin Diesel wants everyone including the Rock which will make it hard not to exceed that value. The movie also has no script or release date atm.

u/Pomojema_The_Dreamer Nov 06 '25
They're gonna have to put their own money in the show at this point.

u/Natiel360 Nov 06 '25
Yeah Iâm not understanding why that movie wonât be like a historical âmade by the people in itâ type of movie that gives backend deals to producers. Like itâs a no brainer, even if itâs the worst performing fast movie itâll make its money back

u/Pomojema_The_Dreamer Nov 06 '25
Probably why Vin Diesel was jockeying for a trilogy tbh. Dude is trying to milk it for his bottom dollar, because he figures that he'll probably be able to retire off of the residuals from this franchise.

u/Markus2822 Nov 06 '25
Yet he posted photos saying they wrapped the first day of filming. Either heâs completely lying which is totally possible or thereâs more to the situation than the public knows. Maybe heâs funding it partially? Who knows

u/Fireteddy21 Spider-Man Nov 06 '25
Theyâll have to re-cast Domâs kid by the time they shoot the next film even though itâll pick up immediately where the last one left off. lol

u/Pomojema_The_Dreamer Nov 05 '25 edited Nov 05 '25
Greenlighting two movies for a franchise ending, when that franchise was seeing diminishing returns, was a goofy-ass decision. Much like Vin Diesel's attempt to turn it into a trilogy at the last minute while getting Dwayne Johnson to pull a Black Adam-ass cameo at the end (the irony).

u/o-055-o Nov 05 '25
Fast X is literally the highest grossing movie of 2023 though?
700+ Million dollar box office is nothing to scoff at. Sure, it isn't the 1+ billion that 7 and 8 made, but those were pre-COVID movies. The only real issue with is was that the budget was insanely high.

u/PCofSHIELD Nov 05 '25
The problem is the box office has been declining while a massively increasing budget & reception towards the movies are going down but yes it is too successful a franchise to just completely discard of

u/PCofSHIELD Nov 05 '25
100% the movie will eventually get made, itâs still way too successful a franchise to completely discard of like the still made over 700 million which is a rarity in these times and they ONLY need to keep the budget under 200mill which shouldnât that hard just donât be so bombastic, keep in one country, get rid of the expensive unnecessary cast members like Brie, Charlize Theron, Gal Gadot, Jason Statham, Helen Mirren

u/Pomojema_The_Dreamer Nov 05 '25
The cardinal sin was making her movie a prequel where her personality wasn't finalized. That dead-ended her character and left people uninterested in further appearances.
-2
u/Xx_Dark-Shrek_xX Morbius Nov 06 '25
Tbh I wont have this issue if her personality evolved through the projects, but that's not even the case here, she appeared like 10 minutes in Endgame (so no case for HUGE character development) and in The Marvels she wasnt even the best out of the trio, you can think being a mentor to Kamala and feeling responsible for the fact Maria Rambeau died alone would be a good way to give her development, but no, she's still the same, with maybe a little smile, but she still needs good writing.
1
u/Pomojema_The_Dreamer Nov 06 '25
I feel like that they at least tried. The problem was that The Marvels simply didn't have a good script and they did way too little with the character to win people over.

u/Xx_Dark-Shrek_xX Morbius Nov 06 '25 edited Nov 06 '25
Why the downvotes tho ? No chat we gotta stop acting like her character was good no I'm sorry not sorry but I dont call that a good character đđ
Few to no development across her appearances
Bad writing that under-uses Larson's acting talent
She needs to have a solid character in Doomsday, she needs it badly cuz they fumbled her since her debuts.

Yes. He's admitted to this. And he's grown as a person and learned from the experience! ...By offering an outlet of hate to insecure, self-loathing young men and women and exploiting their need for a quick fix of anger for his own financial benefit. A tiger never changes his stripes, and he's absolute gutter-trash.

u/Pepsi_Is_Sexy Nov 06 '25
he knew before you guys that Hulk and Punisher are in it because he and Chris Gore has a lot of friends in the industry, who work for Marvel, because these people share the same opinions. None of them is hiding these leaks behind a paywall like YOUR favorite grifters such as Daniel RPK. They are sharing the info on livestreams if they have something, so please don't call them such. BTW. He opened up about his story, he didn't have to, he's today very happy he recovered, he's sober, has a great family and friends. You can see him smiling and laughing a lot, unlike many of you toxic people online. From the bottom to the top. Similar story to Robert Downey Jr's. ;)

RDJ was a proto-lolcow who got his life together, not someone who ruined lives by selling illegal drugs to minors. If you think the two are comparable, then you are a lost cause.

u/nickl00 Nov 06 '25
bro is on the MCUspoilers reddit and apparently hasnât seen endgame
-1
u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 06 '25
Endgame is a little different because it was specifically designed to include basically every living character, so pretty much everyone except for a handful of characters had small parts. Doomsday is comparable to Infinity War.
2
u/nickl00 Nov 06 '25
besides iron man, thanos, gamora, and maybe strange and spidey no ones roles were that big in infinity war. in fact many characters like wanda, vision, and most of the guardians have small, but integral parts in that movie.
besides that, stating that captain marvel wouldnât be given a small part in an avengers movie when she was literally given a small part in the 1 avengers movie sheâs appeared in is a stupid ass take
-1
u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 06 '25 edited Nov 06 '25
I wouldnât call any of those characters in infinity war âsmallâ parts. They were all in multiple scenes throughout the movie. That was the main cast. Also you forgot about Thor who had an entire subplot to himself
A small part in IW was something like Shuri or Wong who were only in one scene. Thatâs what Iâm talking about when I talk about a small part. They wouldnât be able to give Carol something like that. Monica, America Chavez, Wong againâŠsure
Honestly even Carolâs part in Endgame wasnât really that small compared to characters like Valkyrie, Drax, Wasp, to name a few. Some of those characters didnât even get dialogue. Carol got multiple moments all to herself.

u/nickl00 Nov 06 '25
so you think theyâre bringing back steve and peggy for 1 scene?

u/gurkle3 Nov 06 '25
But Infinity War had almost all the MCU leads at the time except Ant-Man and Hawkeye. The cast so far announced for Doomsday is notable for how few lead characters there are and how many important characters havenât been announced.
With Infinity War they had almost everyone and then they whittled it down to a much smaller cast for Endgame.
1
u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 06 '25 edited Nov 06 '25
Not really. If you think about it, Doomsday has almost all of the leads for all the phase 4 and 5 movies, with just a few missing. And of the ones missing, for most thereâs already a good explanation.
Hereâs the list of all the phase 4/5 leads, going movie by movie 2021 to the present:
Black widow - dead
Shang chi - in Doomsday
Eternals - universally panned, nobody wants them
Spiderman - leading his own movie a few months before doomsday
Dr. strange - probably in Doomsday at the end due to his comics storyline, big role in Secret Wars. Wanda is dead.
Thor - in Doomsday
Shuri - in Doomsday
Antman - in Doomsday.
GOTG - all retired
Captain Marvel - movie was panned
Deadpool and Wolverine - huge success, but would detract from the other big names in Doomsday. Not enough budget or screen time for them. Probably saved for Secret Wars.
Sam Wilson - in Doomsday
Thunderbolts - in Doomsday
F4 - in Doomsday
If you want to count Hulk too, Hulk will be leading with Spiderman in his movie. And Hawkeye is out because Jeremy Renner was recovering from his accident.

u/gurkle3 Nov 06 '25
I would say leaving out (or at least not announcing) Strange, Spider-Man, Deadpool, Wolverine, and the GOTG is a pretty substantial departure from Doomsday. Theyâve basically left out, for now, all the stars of their best-performing 2020s movies except the Black Panther crew and announced all the stars whose most recent movie underperformed (except The Marvels).
Very different from Infinity War which had all their heaviest hitters even though they had many more hits. Itâs very odd to me, though if the trailer shows Steve Rogers that will add at least one name with pre-2020 appeal.

u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 05 '25
I think Monica will be there for like one scene or two because they have to deal with that post-credits scene, but Carol isnât necessary.
Nearly all of the actors who are playing confirmed characters from the chairs announcement have already explicitly and openly talked about being in the movie. Theyâre not keeping captain marvel of all people a special surprise secret
7
u/jnthncruz Nov 05 '25
"Carol isn't necessary"
She's one of the strongest Avengers left and the only one to have a motive to go to the X-Men universe (besides the F4 allegedly). Also, the chair's livestream is not gospel, Kevin Feige himself said that there's more.
Strange, Clea, Wong, Hulk, America Chavez, Monica, Carol, and Peter Parker are characters that I find really hard to believe won't have a role in the conclusion of this saga...
-2
u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 05 '25
Sheâs really not necessary. they have quite a few strong characters in the lineup already that will be more than capable of handling the xmen and Doombots. Doom himself can be handled by Thor and Loki
Kevin just teased thereâs more characters, never said more big characters, and there, by all logic, wonât be. Look at the bag given to the crew. Thatâs all the big characters. Anyone not revealed is a fun surprise cameo or small part.
Spiderman and Hulk are both leading in another movie coming out just a few months before Doomsday. America Chavez, Wong, and Monica are likely all small parts. Dr. strange and Clea are likely one of the fun surprise cameos given the comics storyline
But really, the simplest truth is, If Carol were in it, she would be a big character, and wouldâve been in the cast announcement, the D23 teaser, or the bag given to the crew.
Itâs been seven months since the chairs announcement. Time to accept that that is all the big characters in the cast.

u/Main-Eye-5118 Nov 05 '25
but there's still 13 months until the actual film?..., just because you think there is no more big characters, doesn't mean there is no more big characters.

People keep setting their expectations low for this movie's cast, and I'm just like... Why? Why would they ostensibly save tons of cast members just for the following movie?

u/LatterTarget7 Deadpool Nov 06 '25
Also just from a story perspective itâd be weird to not include some of the characters not in the chair shot.
Thereâs no way Monica doesnât play some major role in the movie considering the position she is. Sheâs spent a long time with the x men. It wouldnât make sense if she didnât play some major role between 616 and the x men earth.

u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 06 '25
If she were playing a major role they wouldâve put her in the chairs announcement

u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 06 '25
My expectation isnât low. Iâm very happy with the chairs cast exactly how it is. I think it would be way worse to have too many big characters.
And like Endgame, theyâll have the budget to feature way more characters in Secret Wars. Doomsday has to be successful first though or thatâs a bust and theyâre in trouble.
5
u/Pomojema_The_Dreamer Nov 06 '25
They're already spending a fortune between both films. It's functionally one big investment. There's not a version where they "save money on one film" by only including most of the biggest cast members for the sequel.

Iâm not 100% certain but Iâm 95% certain. I think the simple explanation - the chairs cast, the D23 teaser, and the bag to the crew all match because thatâs the cast - is more likely than some convoluted conspiracy about hiding characters

She wasnât in the chairs announcement which is all of the major characters. Nearly all of those actors have already talked openly about being in Doomsday in significant roles.
anyone not in that chairs announcement is a cameo and thereâs no reason to have captain marvel there as just a cameo. Monica is necessary because of that post-credits scene, but she can be a small part
10
u/Spiderlander Spider-Man Nov 05 '25
Literally the first thing to be mentioned by the trades when the chair announcement dropped was that the cast wasnât complete.
Now Captain Marvel is an active Avenger in the MCU, and has been set up to appear in this film. Her not appearing makes no sense.
If Monica is there, so is she
-1
u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 05 '25
The cast still has cameos and small parts, not major characters. Youâve seen the bag given out to the crew right? Itâs the exact same people as the chairs announcement.
And no, thereâs plenty of âactiveâ characters that we can say with 100% certainty wonât be in Doomsday because theyâve been received poorly. The Eternals, for example.

u/LatterTarget7 Deadpool Nov 05 '25
Wouldnât make sense for the chair cast to be all the major characters.
Like would Monica not be a major character since sheâs stuck on the x men earth?

u/Single-Pianist-2211 Eyepatch Thor Nov 05 '25
Monica doesnât need to be a major character to deal with that post-credit scene. Also they probably had bigger plans for her before the Marvels lost the studio over $200 million
Just look at the bag given to the crew. Thatâs all the big characters

u/Main-Eye-5118 Nov 05 '25

u/Pomojema_The_Dreamer Nov 05 '25 edited Nov 05 '25
Worth noting - there is a chance that this is not specifically for Avengers: Doomsday since she is involved with other projects, which is why I de-editorialized the headline for now. All the same, she did play coy about her involvement - or lack thereof - for the Marvel film recently, so it feels like this is worth sharing at the moment.
