Marvel fans have been left shocked after a number of reports floating on social media claimed that the franchise is considering bringing back Avengers with the original roster, including Iron Man, and Black Widow. While nothing has been confirmed by the company, a recent report in Variety stated that Marvel might choose to show the characters in a multiverse concept.
Bringing back the original Avengers would also mean the return of Iron Man and Black Widow - Robert Downey Jr., and Scarlett Johansson, respectively - both of whom were killed in Endgame.
It must be noted that no commitment regarding the same has been made by the studio as of now.
However, the Variety report also mentioned that the return of Iron Man and Black Widow would not be strange, given the comic book angle, where characters previously killed off are resurrected thanks to forces like the multiverse.
As soon as this news reached social media, it brought forth mixed reactions from the masses. Most social media users did not seem on board with the idea, with one even saying that this would imply that "Endgame meant nothing."
