The Marvel Cinematic Universe is a behemoth franchise, one that consistently puts out new content in theaters and streaming with a Disney+ subscription.

Reports about the movie's reshoots came back in February, but a report by scooper Daniel Richtman (via HeroicHollywood) may offer a clue as to what's being filmed. Per this report, reshoots are going to be "character focused” additional scenes to help flesh out the characters' relationships. So rather than making huge changes like Captain America: Brave New World's reshoots, this report claims that the bones of Doomsday aren't being altered.
Obviously, this is just a rumor at this point, so we should probably take it with a grain of salt for the time being. Still, it might quell fears that the next Avengers movie is making big changes to its content. We'll just have to wait and see if this report ends up being legit.
