The multiverse just got a major speed boost. In an electrifying twist that has Marvel fans buzzing with excitement, trusted insider LiveWarrior has confirmed that Evan Peters is officially returning as Quicksilver in the highly anticipated film Avengers: Doomsday.
Yes, you read that right—he’s back! The fan-favorite speedster from X-Men: Days of Future Past is about to re-enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), and not just in a cameo. According to early reports, his return will be epic, complete with the signature slow-motion, music-fueled action scene that made his previous appearances unforgettable.
Quicksilver in the MCU Multiverse
Evan Peters’ portrayal of Peter Maximoff—better known as Quicksilver—became iconic following his debut in X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014). Unlike his MCU counterpart played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson in Avengers: Age of Ultron, Peters brought a quirky, witty energy to the role that resonated with fans across the board.
Now, after years of fan petitions and endless speculation, Marvel seems to be embracing the chaos of the multiverse to bring him back in a big way.
According to leaked details from what’s believed to be the official script of Avengers: Doomsday, the movie will feature a jaw-dropping battle between the Avengers and the X-Men—and in the middle of that chaos, Quicksilver is set to make his high-speed mark once again.
The Return of the Classic Quicksilver Scene
Perhaps the most exciting part of this reveal? Insiders say the film will recreate one of Quicksilver’s legendary slow-motion scenes—the kind where time appears to freeze as he zips through danger to the beat of a perfectly timed soundtrack.
“It’s going to be a classic Quicksilver moment, just like in Days of Future Past—but bigger, better, and during a full-blown Avengers vs. X-Men showdown,” one source claimed.
Although the track hasn’t been confirmed yet, fans are already speculating about what iconic song might accompany his sprint this time. From Eurythmics to David Bowie, the internet is already curating playlists in anticipation.
A Multiverse of Possibilities
Peters’ return raises significant questions about the future of the MCU—and what role the X-Men: Days of Future Past timeline may play moving forward. Is this a one-time appearance, or is Marvel setting the stage for a full-on merger of the Fox X-Men universe with the MCU?
Given the direction of Phase 6 and the studio’s recent embrace of multiverse madness (Loki, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Spider-Man: No Way Home), anything seems possible.
Marvel has remained tight-lipped about the full cast list and plot details for Avengers: Doomsday, but with filming expected to begin soon, more leaks and official confirmations are likely to surface in the coming months.
Fan Reactions Are Already Exploding
The internet didn’t wait long to react to the news. Within hours of LiveWarrior’s reveal, the hashtag #QuicksilverReturns began trending across Twitter, Instagram, and—unsurprisingly—Facebook, where nostalgia-fueled Marvel groups lit up with fan art, theories, and celebration posts.
“Peters is the only Quicksilver that matters,” one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “Marvel finally made a good multiverse decision!”
Another fan posted: “We’ve waited YEARS for this. I need him to run to Bowie’s ‘Heroes’ again.”
What This Means for the Future
With so many beloved characters rumored—or confirmed—to return in Avengers: Doomsday, the film is shaping up to be more than just another crossover event. It may very well redefine the boundaries of the MCU and open doors to long-demanded character integrations.
And for Evan Peters, this return could be his grandest yet. Whether it’s a one-time thrill or the beginning of something bigger, one thing is certain: Marvel fans will be watching every step (or rather, every blurred dash) he takes.
