If you want to believe them, three Marvel actors have revealed they won't be returning in Avengers: Doomsday – despite the vast majority of the MCU being on board for the mega-crossover.

After being asked by Graham Norton on his talkshow about whether they would be appearing in "the new fancy" Marvel movie alongside seemingly everyone else, Martin Freeman – who plays Everett Ross in multiple Black Panther movies – replied, "Apparently not. Not everyone."

To top off the trifecta, the newly-knighted Sir Idris Elba was also present on the red sofa – with a slightly better reason for why his character, Heimdall, probably wouldn't show up.

"My character died, Graham. So…" To which Norton interjected: "They all fucking die!"

Of course, keeping any spoilers under lock and key – including whether they will even be appearing on-screen – is pretty much in the job description for Marvel actors at this point.
