During the panel, Kevin Feige highlighted that Yelena Belova will have a major role to play in the upcoming film, even hinting that her character will appear in projects prior to the December release. However, fans quickly noticed some prominent absences from the initial lineup. Giants like Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, Deadpool, and Wolverine were not pictured in the poster, sparking intense speculation about whether they will join the fight later or if Marvel is keeping their roles under wraps.
