- Marvel fans think they’ve worked out what Avengers: Judgment Day is about
- The shadow of an actor’s chair is responsible for the history -based fan of theory
- MCU -Request has another theory of Scarlet Witch’s possible appearance in that too
Avengers: Judgment Day Is the gift that continues to give. Just days after the highly expected Marvel movie was confirmed to be in production, and its first 27-strong role crew was revealed, fans have come with two major theories about its plot and the possible return of a popular character.
In fact, Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has devoted the last 48 hours to make their best Sherlock Holmes impressions to decide what the history of the next Avengers movie is all about. Thanks to a apparent Eagle-Eyed Reddit user, we may have received a large clue using a single chair shade. Yes, the silhouette of a chair is what makes everyone talk.
If you have followed with events this week you know that Marvel revealed Judgment Day‘s role crew via a five-hour plus livestream on Wednesday (March 26). During this event, Marvel regularly added foldable chairs with the names of actors that will appear in Avengers 5. Post-Livestream took Marvel to social media to place a picture of the full chair line.

It is this photograph that has fans theorizing about Judgment DayPlot. Look at the third chair from the left, and thanks to an orange-colored light lit on it, an unmistakable ‘x’ shade is thrown onto the floor.
Marvel fanatics do not need another invitation to guess what this is referring to. This ‘x’ hair Being a reference to X-Men, especially since there are several older characters from the 20th century Fox’s original X-Men trilogy that will appear in Judgment Day.
But wait there’s more. By going to Reddit Post-Livestream, User True_Confusion_295 admitted that they had gone fully blown conspiracy theorist by placing a zoomed screen of ‘x’ with what appears to be an ‘a’ placed under it.
I feel like a conspiracy theorist who circles things in red from r/marvelstudios
Again, you don’t need me to tell you what the meaning of this ‘a’ is. Jepp, it’s a clear NIKK for the Avengers logo itself.
The insinuation here is why Judgment Day‘s story goes to center on a larger dispute between the two super -teams. And based on the shadow of this simple chair, it seems that the Marvel Phase 6 movie will be a full-scale Avengers Versus X-Men affair.
There is plenty of evidence to back up this theory. The two groups are clashes in Marvel Comics before, especially as part of Comic Titans 2012 Crossover Event ‘Avengers vs. X-Men ‘, written by Brian Michael Bendis, Matt Fraction, Jason Aaron, Ed Brubaker, and Jonathan Hickman.
Interestingly, the last of these authors is also behind 2015’s ‘Secret Wars’ cartoon. Judgment DayDirectors Joe and Anthony Russo told me only that they draw inspiration from that series to Avengers 5 and 6. Coincidence? I don’t think.

Then there is the fact that as mentioned Judgment Day Will contain several characters from FOX’s original X-Men universe as well as different MCU heroes.
These groups are found in various realities-MCU’s quota on Earth-616 and Fox’s X-Men on Earth-838. With Multiverse Saga centered on cataclysmic events known as intrusions that see two worlds collide until one of them is permanently destroyed, logic dictates that these alternative earths will go down into each other. Their heroes may then be forced to fight to make sure their planet survives, which would be reason enough for an Avengers VS X-Men conflict.
Finally, the Russo brothers have previous forms to tease us with MCU film information via lifeless items. Front Avengers: Endgame‘s release in May 2019, the duo posted a photo on social media asking fans to “look hard” on the objects in that image. Long story Short: They spelled the word endgame, also the subtitle of the fourth Avengers movie.
All this suggests that some or all Judgment Day‘s primary narrative will focus on a showdown between these two super groups. Will Robert Downey JR’s doctor downfall pull the strings behind the scenes to get them to fight for death to save their respective worlds? Perhaps.

He may have something to do with Scarlet Witch’s possible appearance in Judgment Day. Fans have also picked up on Downey Jr’s’ SHUSHING ‘movement from the role crew reveals Livestream, which seems to be a tribute to Agatha Harkness’ own finger-on-lips gesture in Wandavision On Disney+.
Now Elizabeth Olsen has said she won’t be in Judgment Day. Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch apparently died in Doctor Strange 2so her mcu character may not be part of Avengers 5 or its successor, Avengers: Secret Wars. Nevertheless, some fans are convinced that Scarlet Witch will be an integral part of one or both films, and Downey Jr and Kathryn Hahn’s almost identical movements are all the evidence they need.
