We keep hearing rumors about how Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars are going to spark a kind of “soft reboot” of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That could mean new actors playing the franchise’s older characters. That could mean resurrecting characters like Captain America or Iron Man that were killed off but could make a lot of money for Marvel and Disney if they were alive again.
