Zachary Levi’s MCU Character May Return in Avengers: Doomsday — Here’s What We Know
As the anticipation builds for Avengers: Doomsday, rumors are swirling about potential character returns that could shake up the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as we know it.
One of the most intriguing bits of speculation involves Zachary Levi’s character, Fandral the Dashing, from the Thor franchise.
Recent reports from The Cosmic Circus suggest that several legacy Asgardians may answer Thor’s call to arms in the upcoming film, set to be released on December 18, 2026.
During a Q&A session, host Alex Perez hinted at the possibility of Asgardian warriors making a comeback.
“There’s a couple that still haven’t been mentioned,” he stated, referencing the ongoing leaks and rumors surrounding the film.

“A lot of them have already been revealed by scoopers and leaks, so they’re out there already. But if I had to give you a couple of names that I haven’t seen out there, there’s a couple of Asgardians that are planning to answer Thor’s call to arms. Some of which we haven’t seen since Thor: Ragnarok, and are very, very close with Thor. And I just think that’s really neat.”
This comment has reignited interest in The Warriors Three, a trio of Asgardian heroes known for their camaraderie and fierce loyalty to Thor.
Among these warriors, Fandral is particularly noteworthy, especially considering Levi’s unique connection to the character.
Who is Fandral the Dashing?
Fandral the Dashing first appeared in Marvel Comics in 1965, created by the legendary duo of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.
He was designed as a charming, swashbuckling warrior inspired by the likes of Errol Flynn.
Alongside his companions Volstagg and Hogun, Fandral formed the Warriors Three, a group that fought valiantly in defense of Asgard through the ages.
In the MCU, Fandral made his debut in 2011’s Thor, initially portrayed by Josh Dallas.
However, due to scheduling conflicts, the role was later taken over by Zachary Levi for Thor: The Dark World and again in Thor: Ragnarok.
Levi’s portrayal brought a charismatic flair to the character, making Fandral a fan favorite.
Unfortunately, Fandral met a tragic end in Thor: Ragnarok, where he was swiftly killed by Hela, the Goddess of Death, during her assault on Asgard.
Despite his demise, the Multiverse Saga opens up a plethora of possibilities for alternate versions or resurrected variants of beloved characters, including Fandral and the Warriors Three.
The Multiverse Saga: A Gateway to Resurrection?
The concept of the Multiverse has been a game-changer for the MCU, allowing for the introduction of alternate realities and timelines.
This narrative device could easily facilitate the return of Fandral and his comrades, providing a fresh opportunity for fans to see the beloved trio reunite with Thor (played by Chris Hemsworth) in the face of new threats, particularly Doctor Doom.
Given the stakes involved in Avengers: Doomsday, the return of the Warriors Three would not only serve as a nostalgic nod to long-time fans but also enhance the storyline by bringing back characters who have a deep-rooted connection to Thor.

As the speculation continues, fans are eager to see how these developments unfold.
Many are excited about the potential reunion of the Warriors Three, expressing their thoughts across social media platforms.

Will we see Fandral and the Warriors Three rise again to fight alongside Thor? Only time will tell as the Marvel universe continues to expand and explore the infinite possibilities of the Multiverse.
