Oscar nominee Sandra Hüller will make a cameo in Marvel’s “Avengers: Doomsday.”
News of Hüller’s top-secret role comes as directors Anthony and Joe Russo are in post-production on the project, ahead of its Dec. 18 release date. The superhero movie is already stuffed to the gills with award-winning actors and massive movie stars, including Chris Hemsworth, Pedro Pascal, Paul Rudd, Anthony Mackie, Florence Pugh, Vanessa Kirby, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Tom Hiddleston and Channing Tatum, as well as the returns of Chris Evans as Steve Rogers and Oscar winner Robert Downey Jr. as the villainous Doctor Doom, instead of Iron Man/Tony Stark.
The role also marks Hüller’s fifth major feature in 2026, following “Project Hail Mary” (with newly announced Marvel superhero Ryan Gosling, who’ll play Ghost Rider), “Rose,” “Fatherland” and “Digger,” all of which are players in this year’s awards race. In 2024, Hüller earned her first best actress Oscar nomination for “Anatomy of a Fall,” one of two best picture nominees in which she starred that year. (The other film was “The Zone of Interest,” which won two Oscars, including best international feature.)
The Hollywood Reporter first reported Hüller’s involvement. Marvel Studios does not comment on casting.
