Gwyneth Paltrow hints at possible Pepper Potts return for Avengers: Doomsday
The actress suggests she has recently worked on a secretive Marvel project, which fans speculate could be the upcoming film.
Gwyneth Paltrow has hinted she may reprise her role as Pepper Potts in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday. During an episode of her podcast "The Goop Guide," Paltrow interviewed Zoe Saldaña and the two discussed their confusion while filming Avengers: Endgame due to strict script secrecy. Paltrow then mentioned she had a similar experience recently, saying she was "not allowed to say" more but that it involved not knowing what movie she was on or who her character was. Saldaña responded with "Pepper!"
While Paltrow did not name the film, fans online have speculated that her comments could be connected to Avengers: Doomsday. Social media reactions included speculation that Pepper Potts could appear as the deceased wife of Doctor Doom, given that Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to play Doctor Doom rather than Tony Stark.
The possibility of Pepper Potts returning has led to theories about how the film might address Downey Jr.'s new role, with some suggesting a variant of Tony Stark could appear. Avengers: Doomsday is scheduled for release on December 16 in the UK and December 18 in the US.
