Russo brothers on Avengers: Doomsday's complexity and tone

While the MCU has an infamous sense of humor, it sounds like Avengers: Doomsday is going to be more intense than we might expect. "As much as we run at the fun in terms of what these films can be," Anthony Russo told Empire magazine (via Culture Crave) in the latest issue, "we also run at the complexity and the difficulty of what these movies can do at a narrative level.

I think we've found a new level of that in Doomsday." Joe Russo added: "Victor von Doom demands a certain tone." The four trailers released for the film so far give little away about the plot – besides the return of Chris Evans's Steve Rogers – but they have all been dead serious.

That makes sense, considering Doctor Doom is one of Marvel's best villains, meaning he's likely going to pose a huge threat to Earth's Mightiest Heroes. One person who says she won't be in the movie, though, is Halle Berry, who played Storm in the X-Men movies.
