Nightcrawler actor Alan Cumming says he did, in fact, see the script for Avengers: Doomsday, though it took a while to come through.

"We eventually saw a script. It took a while, but we had a script," Cumming told ET, when asked if Marvel had him come to set in a more informal manner. The reception of a script tells us that Cumming may have much more than just a teeny tiny cameo in the upcoming movie.

Cumming also teased that Halle Berry could be appearing as Storm, but added: "I don't… but honestly, I'm the last person to ask," explaining that he's remaining tight-lipped for now after accidentally revealing earlier this year that he may or may not share the screen with Pedro Pascal's Reed Richards.

The impossibly long cast list for Doomsday includes the Thunderbolts cast, the rest of the Fantastic Four, and Chris Hemsworth's Thor, Anthony Mackie's Captain America, Danny Ramirez's Falcon, and Letitia Wright's Shuri. Robert Downey Jr., of course, plays Doctor Doom – who made his first appearance in the end-credits scene of The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
