There has been much discussion about who the villain will be in the concluding movie of Avengers: Secret Wars. The most probable nominees are Doctor Doom or Galactus. Although one would not be surprised if Kang the Conqueror makes a surprising return in the upcoming Avengers movie. It is fairly logical to assume that Avengers: Kang Dynasty would likely see the end of the villain but considering the style of Marvel, anything can happen in this multiverse of madness.

Avengers: Kang Dynasty will be released on May 2, 2025, in theaters worldwide while Avengers: Secret Wars will be released on 7th November 2025 and will mark the end of the Multiverse Saga of the MCU.
