Avengers 5 Kang Dynasty Cast: Every MCU Character Likely to Appear

Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars will offer a climax to the ongoing Multiverse Saga in a similar manner to how Infinity War and Endgame concluded Marvel Studios' first collection of films. With so many heroes still lingering from the last saga and countless new ones arriving with every new project, many are wondering who will show up in the next Avengers flick.

Already in Phase 4 alone, fans have been introduced to several new heroes and teams, reunited with a few familiar faces, and replaced characters in existing mantles. There's no doubt the cast of the next two Avengers blockbusters will be stacked as Earth's Mightiest Heroes require all the help they can get to defeat Jonathon Majors' Kang the Conqueror.

With the two-part epic being a story that revolves around the Multiverse and Variants, the possibilities for who could show up are endless. Even dead characters are far from off the table thanks to alternate timeline shenanigans. But who is the most likely to be back for The Kang Dynasty?

Most Likely To Appear

Jonathan Majors - Kang the Conqueror


Kang the Conqueror has long been teased as the big bad of the Multiverse Saga and The Kang Dynasty clearly cements that. Fans have already met one Variant in Loki and will soon meet another in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania which may offer more hints toward his mission in the next Avengers blockbuster. But will he survive to antagonize again in Secret Wars?

Anthony Mackie - Sam Wilson's Captain America


Just as Steve Rogers once was, Sam Wilson will soon be at the forefront of the MCU as he takes up a bigger role within The Avengers moving forward. It remains to be seen whether Wilson will serve as the next leader of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, but he undoubtedly should have one of the largest roles in The Kang Dynasty after fully embracing the Captain America mantle in New World Order.

Brie Larson - Captain Marvel


Brie Larson's Captain Marvel sits among the most powerful heroes in the MCU, as she proved in the fight against Thanos in Avengers: Endgame. The Kree hero will probably be part of the MCU's Big Three heroes moving forward, making an appearance in The Kang Dynasty almost certain​​.

Simu Liu - Shang-Chi


Simu Liu's Shang-Chi proved to be a popular addition to the MCU when he debuted in his 2021 solo outing. After being introduced to Avengers like Captain Marvel and Hulk in his post-credits scene, the martial arts expert will undoubtedly have an important part to play in the next major crossover. The director of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Destin Daniel Cretton, is even set to helm The Kang Dynasty, so there's no doubt he will want to offer a major role to his first MCU hero.

Benedict Cumberbatch - Doctor Strange

Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange has essentially replaced Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man as the leading man of the MCU. After appearances in both Multiverse of Madness and Spider-Man: No Way Home, Strange is the expert on all things Multiverse, and his expertise will no doubt be invaluable to the Avengers.

Charlize Theron - Clea


Multiverse of Madness introduced audiences to Charlize Theron's Clea, a powerful sorceress and potential love interest for Doctor Strange. With the niece of Dormammu having been the one to alert Strange to an Incursion he has caused, she may have a role to play in The Kang Dynasty ahead of Secret Wars, an event all about said Incursions.

Benedict Wong- Wong


Almost nobody could have guessed after Doctor Strange that Wong would have the most appearances in Phase 4, right? After She-Hulk, the sorcerer will be sitting at four Phase 4 appearances, which look to be setting him up as the Nick Fury of the supernatural side of things. With that many appearances under the belt of the Multiverse expert, it would be a shame if he missed out on the two-part culmination of it all to give Wong his fifth and sixth Phase 4 roles.

Xochitl Gomez- America Chavez


Doctor Strange 2 established another character with close connections to the Multiverse: America Chavez. With her powers giving her the ability for Multiversal travel, Strange may bring her along for the ride to assist the Avengers, particularly now that she'll have learned some magic at Kamar-Taj.

Tom Hiddleston - Loki


Loki's finale saw the God of Mischief and his Variant Sylvie being responsible for the unraveling of the Multiverse, which may open the doors to his appearance in The Kang Dynasty. Particularly since the famous conqueror has also proven central to Loki; after two seasons of his Disney+ series, Tom Hiddleston's redeemed Asgardian may be the expert the Avengers need. Having now had his most significant redemption arc to date, it would be intriguing to see how he interacts with his former Avenging foes as a more heroic figure.

Sophia Di Martino - Sylvie

Just as Nebula ended up being unexpectedly integral to Infinity War and Endgame due to her connection to Thanos, Sylvie could be just as integral to The Kang Dynasty thanks to the role she played in opening up the Multiverse. But there's no doubt the Loki Variant wouldn't exactly be popular with her fellow MCU characters after she was almost single-handedly responsible for the chaos unfolding. When Sylvie was last seen, she was murdering He Who Remains - a Kang Variant - who told her he will "see [her] soon," setting up further interactions in Loki Season 2 and beyond.

Chris Hemsworth - Thor

Chris Hemsworth has had one of the longest MCU careers, and his journey is clearly still in full swing after Love and Thunder. The Australian actor has reaffirmed his commitment to sticking around in the MCU, meaning he will probably be in The Kang Dynasty to re-team with the Avengers as one of the last original heroes left.

Paul Rudd - Ant-Man

Ant-Man and his Quantum Realm expertise played a surprisingly important role in Avengers: Endgame, and he will soon lead his next adventure in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. With the shrinking sequel set to feature Kang, who will be the villain of The Kang Dynasty, Ant-Man could slot in with ease, unless he doesn't make it out alive of his third solo flick.


Evangeline Lilly - Wasp

Where there's an Ant-Man, there's a Wasp, meaning the chances of Evangeline Lilly returning for The Kang Dynasty largely depends on whether Paul Rudd does. Both characters were two of the founding Avengers in Marvel Comics - perhaps they may be more important to this new era of the team than they were in the first. Once again, it all depends on whether she can survive her encounter with Kang in Quantumania​​​​​​.
