Kat Dennings’ name may not have appeared on the back of a chair during the Avengers: Doomsday cast announcement, but according to the MCU star, there’s still a chance it could appear if technology has anything to do with it.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Dennings was asked about the likelihood of him appearing in the upcoming film, in which Earth’s Mightiest Heroes will face a new threat with a familiar face: Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom. “I mean, I’m not in this. And I’m telling you right now, I’m not in this. If I was in this, which I’m not, I couldn’t tell you, but I literally am not,” Dennings explained. “I’m sure they already filmed it. I was here, I’m not in it.”

At this point, Dennings has contributed quite a bit of screen time to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Playing Jane Foster’s (Natalie Portman) ditzy assistant Darcy Lewis, Dennings has appeared in three Thor films, as well as WandaVision and a handful of What If…? episodes as an alternate version of the character.

With all that said, Dennings was quick to add that, thanks to AI, Marvel Studios and Disney will have it in one file. “But they did scan me, so to be honest, they could put me in whatever they want right now. Who knows? I’m in the system!”

While there’s a good chance Darcy will appear in archival footage during the film, there may be too much going on in the realities for Thor’s friend from his late ex’s past to appear in the mix. We’ll have to see for ourselves when Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters on December 18, 2026.
