Summary
The restoration of a veteran Marvel histrion in 2023 ’s most shockingMCUtwist exercise set up a huge record being break away inAvengers : Secret Wars . The Marvel ’s credits scenebrought Kelsey Grammer ’s mutant genius Beast back to the Marvel timeline after Teyonah Parris ' Monica Rambeau end up stranded in an entirely different reality . And that shocking crossover could lead to a major Marvel playacting record being broken in the skinny future .
Despite wipe out numerous characters and permanently withdraw many others , the MCU has a number of characters who have been around for a prospicient time . Samuel L Jackson ’s Nick Fury and Jon Favreau ’s Happy Hogan are still combat-ready in 2023 after debuting inIron Manin 2008 , and Chris Hemsworth , Jeremy Renner , and Mark Ruffalo could all be look to fall in the near future . But thanks to the multiverse and returning characters from pre - MCU movies , another group of theatrical role technically have even recollective tenures . When Jennifer Garner reappears inDeadpool 3 , she will have played Elektra in 2 film 19 years and 111 days apart . And Beast ’s return in anupcoming MCU moviecould go even further .
Over 17 years and 35 movies , the Marvel Cinematic Universe motion-picture show have redefined blockbuster cinema . But how do all the films pile up ?
Kelsey Grammer Could Steal The MCU’s Appearance Record In Secret Wars
The Marvel ’s endingsets up a time to come for Kelsey Grammer ’s seasoned Beast in the MCU , as well as other member of the original 10 - Men pic ' cast . There is , of course , the possibility that return could come inCaptain Marvel 3 , or a twirl - off focused on Monica Rambeau twirl - off , or even in the MCU ’s ten - Men movie . But given the multiverse storyline at the philia of the comics ' effect , there ’s a significant chance it would be in 2027’sAvengers : Secret Wars .
If Beast returns inAvengers : Secret Wars , Grammer ’s first and next confirmed appearance as Beast would be a Brobdingnagian 21 years apart . Currently , Tobey Maguire and Willem Dafoe jointly hold the record for farsighted Marvel movie term of office at 19 years and 225 days , having appeared inSpider - Manin 2001 andNo Way Homein 2021 . Assuming Samuel L Jackson ’s Nick Fury appears inSecret Wars , he ’d close in on Maguire and Dafoe ’s criminal record , but Beast would take the hint after first appearing inX - Men : The Last Standin 2006 .
Why Secret Wars Is Beast’s Most Likely MCU Return
It is most likely that Beast will render in theupcomingAvengers : Secret war , kick in the likely centering on realities crashing together and a final wage - off of the melodic theme of multiverse incursions . WhileThe Marvelschanged how incursion shape afterDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness ' first explanation of them , the important thing is that they make multi - dimensional chaos . have Beast and the X - Men ’s population involved in that , even after Monica Rambeau closed the severance between the realities , makes a lot of sense .
Grammer has already spoken about hsi authority that he will reappear as Beast , suggesting plans are already afoot :
It is my hope that you will [ see him again ] . I can say with a certain amount of self-confidence that you will . I would love to . [ I was ] very pleased [ by the response of the late cameo ] . A lot of people got in trace [ with him ] I ’ve always want to play him again . I see him as an extraordinary theatrical role , a real character of gravitas and importance in our polish . I ’m delighted Beast is back and hope he ’s back in a real way .
Given there ’s presently no word of a lineal follow - up toThe Marvels , and the idea ofthe MCU ’s first X - Men moviegoing back to the original cast being so badly - fitting , Secret Warsfits the bill . As popular as Fox ’s XTC - Men cast is , there ’s no length of service in those characters , with such an mature cast . Plus , the MCU X - Men moving-picture show is n’t even announced yet , and it feel unlikely it would get beforeAvengers : Secret Warsin 2027 . Unless Marvel shake off a curveball , and useSecret Warsto reset everything , introducing a unexampled X - Men draw after a net word of farewell tour for the pilot ?
Kelsey Grammer Could Break Tobey Maguire’s Record Even Without Secret Wars
If 2027 proves not to see Kelsey Grammer ’s homecoming , there ’s also still a theory that he will let out Maguire and Dafoe ’s criminal record . For him to beat the record of 19 years and 225 days established byNo Way Home , Grammer would postulate to appear in an MCU movie or television show after December 28 , 2025 . That would govern out all currently announced upcoming MCU picture beforeAvengers : The Kang Dynastyon May 1 , 2026 , but there ’s a chance Marvel could still announce more in the lag .
Deadpool 3certainly has a opportunity of being Kelsey Grammer ’s rejoinder , give the apparent inclusion of characters from the Fox world , but Monica Rambeau ’s affair would be a shock . It still remains more likely that Beast and Rambeau ’s returns will happen in something that has n’t yet been foretell : and if that releases after December 28 , 2025 , Kelsey Grammer will break out the MCU eccentric record book .
