Marvel Studios has been tight-lipped about the full cast of ‘Avengers: Doomsday’, but that hasn’t deterred fans from digging for hints about potential appearances. With a lineup that already includes members from the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four, one notable absence has sparked ongoing speculation.

Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool has been conspicuously absent from all official cast announcements for the film, even though the character has a well-established role in the broader MCU following ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’. This lack of confirmation hasn’t stopped fans from hoping for a surprise cameo from the beloved character in this expansive crossover.

Recently, a new piece of evidence has emerged that reignites this discussion. An alleged Deadpool costume prop linked to ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ has appeared for auction online, listed by PROPDOMAIN on the collectibles platform iCollector as a prototype suit fabric panel associated with the film.

The auction listing is careful not to make any definitive claims. It states, “It is still unsure if DEADPOOL is in DOOMSDAY, but this is a solid clue!” acknowledging that the item’s connection to the movie remains unverified.

Despite the ambiguity, interest in the item has surged. Bidding for the Deadpool panel began at just $10 and has already risen to $95, with an estimated value between $300 and $400 as the live online auction is set to commence on October 3.

Deadpool isn’t the only Marvel character linked to this auction. A second lot featuring a large prototype suit fabric panel associated with Magneto has also surfaced, sharing the same estimated value and starting bid, currently at $40. Both items are distinguished primarily by their character-specific descriptions rather than any confirmed production documentation.

Collectors interested in viewing either item can reportedly do so by appointment at the auction house in Reseda, California, prior to the October 3 sale. However, neither listing provides concrete evidence tying the fabric panels directly to confirmed costume production for ‘Doomsday’, meaning they should be regarded as unverified until Marvel provides clarity.

This isn’t the first Marvel-related item to emerge through auction listings recently. The same auction house previously featured a scrapped black suit reportedly connected to ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’, which similarly sparked speculation about unconfirmed costume designs before being deemed an unverified claim.

This trend suggests that prop houses and auction listings have increasingly become an unofficial, albeit unreliable, source of pre-release Marvel speculation, filling the void left by the studio’s typically secretive marketing strategy. Whether these leaked items genuinely originated from active productions or are merely prototype pieces misrepresented for auction interest remains an open question.

With ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ still confirming cast members as recently as this week, according to co-director Anthony Russo, there is clearly still potential for surprises ahead of the film’s December 18 release. Whether Deadpool will ultimately play a role in the narrative or if this listing is merely coincidental, fans are sure to continue analyzing every new clue until the film finally premieres.
