Avengers: Doomsday directors may have revealed too much after swiftly deleting a video showcasing the Marvel movie's biggest fan theories

Joe and Anthony Russo's production company AGBO launched an "evolving space" to share your biggest Avengers: Doomsday fan theories with the directors, but quickly deleted it. Which isn't suspicious at all.

Described as an "evolving space," the Avengers: Doomsday Theory Board was launched on AGBO's website over the weekend of January 31-February 1. The description reads, "Your Avengers: Doomsday theories belong here. The clues are out there. The stories are stacking up. And everyone is connecting dots at wildly different speeds."

That came bundled with a video of a group, presumably AGBO employees, writing their Doomsday theories on a whiteboard.

Both the web page and Instagram Reel have since been deleted but the video has been recovered for posterity – with a few eyebrow-raising theories that could hint at why the Doomsday request was very quickly scrubbed from the internet.

In the video, the following theories are shown: Steve [Rogers] having a child outside of his own timeline is causing incursions; Steve messing with time is making Doctor Doom mad; Steve's kid grows up to be a villain; the Fantastic Four head to Steve's timeline to get help going to Earth-616's present day, and Doctor Doom = Tony Stark. There's even a joke entry, suggesting Steve's child is Doctor Doom and transforms into Robert Downey Jr. It's safe to say that one can be ruled out.

  • Tony Stark in Avengers: Endgame One Marvel fan might have already worked out how the Avengers: Endgame re-release will connect to Doomsday
  • Tom Holland as Spider-Man in Spider-Man: Brand New Day Marvel fans have a theory that Doctor Doom has already kidnapped Spider-Man

Now, we're not suggesting any of these theories are correct, but the timing of it being taken down is certainly curious. Has AGBO received a tap on the shoulder from either the Russos or Kevin Feige? It's possible – and definitely suggests someone may have gotten a little closer to the truth than Marvel Studios was comfortable with.

Previously, the Russos had stoked the fires of speculation by suggesting the round of Avengers: Doomsday teasers attached to Avatar: Fire and Ash screenings were "stories" and "clues".
