'Avengers: Doomsday' latest plot leak puts a major character in focus, and it isn't Robert Downey Jr.'s Doom

The latest comes from a reliable scooper, who breaks down Steve Rogers' role in 'Avengers: Doomsday'

Chris Evans' Steve Rogers finds himself in the spotlight as 'Avengers: Doomsday' plot leaks continue to trickle. The latest comes from reliable scooper MyTimeToShineHello, who breaks down Rogers' role in the upcoming film.

In the latest, the scooper wrote, "In Avengers: Doomsday, Victor asks the Fantastic Four for help with the Incursions. They travel together with Steve Rogers to the MCU in their ship to warn everyone, then join forces to head to the X-Men universe - the source of the next Incursion that will destroy their Earths. They have a plan to fix everything."

While the leak appears to be unbelievable, fans have come in with their own two cents about the plotline. The first question is what Earth-616, the Sacred Timeline's Rogers be doing with the Fantastic Four. Some believe that Doom (Robert Downey Jr.) recruited Rogers, or it could be another version of the First Avenger in that timeline. For now, there is no official word from Marvel about how they fit Rogers into the grand scheme of things. Rogers is also expected to go through the events of the first film and the upcoming 'Secret Wars'.

In the first ‘Doomsday’ trailer, viewers are taken back to Peggy’s (Hayley Atwell) house. Though she does not appear on screen, Steve is shown holding a baby, implying that he and Peggy started a family together. This has already led to multiple theories where some have speculated that the baby could be Doom, though there have been mixed views on the speculation.

The three trailers that followed focus on Thor (Chris Hemsworth), the X-Men, featuring Professor Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart), Magneto (Ian McKellen), and Cyclops (James Marsden), and the fourth one on the Wakandans and a member of the Fantastic Four.

'Doomsday' also stars Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, alongside Anthony Mackie as Captain America, Sebastian Stan as the Winter Soldier, Letitia Wright as Shuri, Paul Rudd as Ant-Man, Wyatt Russell as U.S. Agent, Tenoch Huerta Mejía as Namor, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Pedro Pascal as Mister Fantastic, Joseph Quinn as the Human Torch, Ebon Moss-Bachrach as the Thing, and Simu Liu as Shang-Chi.

Also returning are Florence Pugh as White Widow, Kelsey Grammer as the Beast, Lewis Pullman as Sentry, Danny Ramirez as Falcon, David Harbour as Red Guardian, Winston Duke as M'Baku, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, and Tom Hiddleston as Loki.

Avengers: Doomsday releases in cinemas on 18 December.
