In what may be the most revealing leak since Avengers: Endgame, the full original storyline of Avengers: The Kang Dynasty has surfaced online—offering a glimpse into Marvel Studios’ now-scrapped vision for its multiversal epic. Once intended as a major pillar of the Multiverse Saga, the film has reportedly been shelved in favor of a reworked concept titled Avengers: Doomsday. But before the rewrite, this was how the story was meant to unfold…
Kang’s Fall and Rise Beyond the Quantum Realm
Following his defeat at the hands of Scott Lang in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Kang the Conqueror is exiled into the Beyond—an interdimensional void outside time and space. Here, Kang encounters an army of variants from across the multiverse, including Immortus, Rama-Tut, and Centurion, members of the ruling “Council of Kangs.”
Fueled by vengeance after the Council orchestrates the death of his wife and child in a timeline purge, Kang begins hunting his own—eliminating variant after variant, absorbing their knowledge, and growing in power. He ultimately seizes control of the Beyond and begins constructing Battleworld: a patchwork reality formed from fragments of dying universes.
The Avengers Divided
Back in the main MCU timeline, the Avengers—now scattered and leaderless after the events of Endgame—begin detecting multiversal instability. Doctor Strange, Wong, and the TVA attempt to intervene, but chaos spreads as timelines begin collapsing into one another.
The Avengers divide into three strike teams:
- Team One, led by Sam Wilson’s Captain America and Captain Marvel, is tasked with taking down Rama-Tut in ancient Egypt.
- Team Two, composed of Shang-Chi, Spider-Man (Tom Holland), and Ant-Man, heads into a futuristic dimension to confront Centurion.
- Team Three, featuring Scarlet Witch (redeemed post-Multiverse of Madness), Thor, and Loki, confront Immortus in a realm outside time.
Despite heroic efforts, each team ultimately fails to stop their respective Kang variants—who either escape or merge with Kang Prime’s master plan.
Collapse of the Multiverse
As the timelines destabilize, Kang Prime pulls all the threads together into Battleworld, anchoring a floating citadel at its core where he declares himself the sole ruler of all existence. The film was set to end with a catastrophic collapse of the multiverse, trapping heroes and villains alike in Battleworld.
Major characters like Deadpool, Wolverine, and even variants of Iron Man and Black Panther from alternate timelines were rumored to cameo during the climactic merge—setting the stage for Avengers: Secret Wars, which would function as a multiversal reboot of the MCU.
The Rewrite: Enter Doctor Doom
However, after the lukewarm response to Quantumania and the legal controversies surrounding actor Jonathan Majors (Kang), Marvel Studios hit the brakes. The Kang-centered saga was put under review, and in late 2024, the project was rebranded as Avengers: Doomsday.
According to industry insiders, Doomsday will now feature Doctor Doom—portrayed by none other than Robert Downey Jr. in an alternate-reality role—as the new central antagonist. The move is being seen as both a course correction and a bold new direction for the MCU’s future.
Conclusion: A Vision Lost, a Multiverse Reborn
Though The Kang Dynasty may never reach audiences in its original form, this leaked storyline offers fans a fascinating glimpse into Marvel’s ambitious multiverse plans—filled with tragedy, cosmic battles, and infinite possibilities. While Kang may have fallen from grace behind the scenes, his legacy could still echo through the timelines of what comes next.
With Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars on the horizon, one thing is certain: the Multiverse Saga is far from over.
