The Sentry in Avengers: Doomsday

Hi.

I have been thinking about this since I saw Thunderbolts*. The Sentry almost falls asleep when he fights the Thunderbolts and still takes them out easily by using like 0.001% of his power. But in the post credit scene Robert says he can't become The Sentry without having The Void come back.

I really hope that he become The Sentry again in Avengers: Doomsday, because he might be the only hope to win against Doctor Doom. But here's the tricky question. How will he become The Sentry again?

- Will someone he loves (Yelena) get murdered by Doom and he gets so angry that he becomes The Sentry and uses all his power trying to defeat Doctor Doom?
- Does the other heroes beg him to become The Sentry so he can beat Doctor Doom and save the multiverse?

Bonus question. Do you think The Sentry would stand any chance against God Emperor Doom and do you think we will get to see God Emperor Doom in Doomsday or Secret Wars?

Thanks for reading!

Honestly, I wouldn’t count on Sentry (or any of the Thunderbolts, really) being pivotal to defeat Doom

lundon442026-01-17 04:00

Same (unfortunately).

And I feel like they've already set him up to get nerfed in Doomsday. They've already done this a few times with Vision, Hulk etc. As much as I would love to see Sentry obliterate Doom in 2 sec. But then the movie would be over.

Crassus872026-01-17 01:39

Sentry is going to have an incredible feat establishing him as comfortably the single most powerful hero opposing Doom, then he's going to fight Doom solo and get his ass kicked.

BaloneyMaker27802026-01-17 01:43

I doubt many of the new avengers will have hugely pivotal roles, hence the 'depowering' explanation of Sentry. Trailers show us who the big players are

rallmats2026-01-17 01:47

I have a feeling there will be a big point of contention between the heroes on whether or not they let Sentry fight. The more pragmatic heroes (Mr. Fantastic, Namor, Shuri) seeing the tactical advantage, but the Thunderbolts being against it, having experienced the Void firsthand. I would love to see Doom weaponize the Void and have a large scale fight, all the heroes vs the Void

TheRayATL2026-01-17 01:47

I just hope he isn’t killed off lol

Kurandaand2026-01-17 01:50

He won’t be. But he is going to have a really REALLY rough time.

Fit-Investigator-3112026-01-17 03:59

Thanks for the information, John Marvel.

Kurandaand2026-01-17 01:47

A bit of both perhaps. Yelena is not dying but her being in mortal danger would be more than enough for him to become Sentry again.

As for going up against Doom? In Secret Wars I think he will be part of that final confrontation, but more likely Doom will be defeated by something unexpected (in the same way Captain Marvel and Scarlett Witch were able to give Thanos a fight, but Tony defeated him).

Although if Battleworld is as cool as we all hope it is hopefully they will have more than enough crazy villains and monsters for Sentry and all the highest powered heroes to go up against at some point.

mgiblue212026-01-17 01:55

I don't know how it'll come about and I honestly don't care too much about how, I just want to see Sentry and Hulk fight

hoggytime6132026-01-17 01:58

That would be a very fast fight with how incredibly nerfed MCU Hulk is.

mgiblue212026-01-17 02:03

Sadly true, but these movies give them a chance to address that, especially if the rumors he's returning to full angry hulk in Spider-Man are true

Kurandaand2026-01-17 02:39

That could actually be a good fight in Secret Wars if it is full angry Hulk, and Sentry with some reason to hold back a bit or not fully powered up. Could be a lot of fun.

mgiblue212026-01-17 02:52

That's the hope

Responsible_Egg75192026-01-17 02:01

Bob doesn’t need to “be” Sentry to use his powers. He has them all the time. We know this from seeing him get shot and from his training with Val. The problem is that the more he uses his powers, the more confident he becomes—we see this when he fights the team, where he goes from nervous to curious to amused to bored very quickly—and the more confident Bob becomes, the easier it gets for him to slip into a manic, delusional state, which we also see when he turns on Val. Bob is afraid of himself in both that state and his depressive one, the Void, which is the “low” after that high. He is trying to circumvent that cycle entirely by not using his active powers, like his telekinesis, flight, super strength, etc (which presumably is going to end up biting him in the ass in Doomsday). But if someone went up and shot him, he would still be bulletproof.

Yelena is not going to die. She is too valuable as a character for that. I do think that Bob will be incredibly protective over her, though, and if she is threatened I think he would be forced to act.

We know that his powers will be relevant in some way because both Lewis Pullman and Jake Schrier (the director of TB*) hinted at it. Personally, I think the Void will be used to show Doom’s past.

finky3252026-01-17 07:17

I'm curious if he'll interact with Xavier at all, maybe he can help unlock or assist his mental faculties somehow. In the comics Emma does this while the Void is fighting the X-Men, New Avengers, Dr Strange, Shield, FF, and the Inhumans.

How epic would that be?

BravoLeader30002026-01-17 02:13

I imagine that Doom will be the "hero" of Doomsday, and won't actually be defeated by our heroes until the end of Secret Wars.

JasonP272026-01-17 04:14

I think that's a real possibility, but I think we're more likely to see him appear as the hero for much of Doomsday and then near the end everyone finds out his true intentions (rather than save the multiverse he is collapsing it into Battleworld) and they try to stop him.

Just as Steve and friends have the upper hand on Doom he'll remove his mask to reveal his face, they give pause and Doom escapes/fulfils his plan.

BravoLeader30002026-01-17 06:08

I know that MCU adaptations have been very loose, but in Hickman's FF, it was stated that "all hope lies in Doom", and then in Avengers/New Avengers/Secret Wars he saved reality from mulitversal collapse.

midnightTimber2026-01-17 18:52

Collapsing the multiverse into Battleworld was the way Doom saved the multiverse in the comics. The heroes’ plans failed over and over, and Doom’s was the only one that worked. Only, cause he’s Doom, he made it so he was God Emperor of the fractured world he saved.

JasonP272026-01-17 20:21

Yes I mean in that everyone thinks he's trying to save all the remaining universes but in fact he's combining them

ThatsAGottem2026-01-17 20:03

Oh good I haven’t had a good argument with my friends since Infinity War.

WindowInformal49002026-01-17 04:55

As much as I love the character of Sentry I think he’s gonna serve a similar purpose to molecule man in secret wars

imin20992026-01-17 07:22

The void is going to comeback in Doomsday but Charles Xavier will defeat him

flame2bits2026-01-17 09:26

Is the sentrys power to put people in an old house?
The Voids I mean.

Suspicious_Weird_3732026-01-17 09:27

He’s not a famous enough character to be the one who wins the day.

If anything, he’s more likely to be the Hulk/Thanos fall guy.

Pupulauls90002026-01-17 09:46

I think Sentry will fulfill the role of Molecule Man in these movies and I also think they’ll utilize the Void to show Doom’s backstory

MikeSpace2026-01-17 10:26

If Sentry shows up in Doomsday in will solely be to get wrecked to show what a threat Doom is.

Ineedanewjobnow2026-01-17 10:48

Sentry is going to have his spine ripped out by doom

Standard-Contest-9492026-01-17 12:12

Sentry is no match for the sheer arsenal of Doom.

HaywireBalloonABH2026-01-17 12:16

The Russo brothers famously do not like heroes that are OP. Hence the pacification of Hulk. I'll be surprised if Bob *isn't* neutered early in Doomsday for this reason.

RoyalCod32026-01-17 12:36

If he becomes Sentry/Void, he won't be able to defeat Doom in Doomsday since we need to continue to Secret Wars.

In Secret Wars, an old character will defeat Doom.

All the powerful characters we have can defeat Doom, but he has plot armor.

Ultron_Sentry_092026-01-17 13:07

FINALLY I HAVE BEEN MENTIO-

Oh. You mean THAT sentry. Oh well.

SXENE762026-01-18 08:39

Haha

Ultron_Sentry_092026-01-19 02:39

After the sokovia incident my backup copy has been relegated to browsing Reddit for eternity until I find another body

NamelessGamer_12026-01-17 20:15

I don't know about the Sentry stuff, but I can guarantee you, God Emperor Doom will only be in Secret Wars. In Doomsday it has to be regular Doom. It wouldn't make sense for it to be God Emperor.

ahujavikas2026-01-18 00:32

I think they’ll save God Emperor Doom for secret wars and battle world. Clearly Doomsday is gonna end with creation of Battleworld. https://youtu.be/PaL-uBlisAs?si=WZ-HFoYGk57VNNd0

P00PooKitty2026-01-18 03:22

Here’s the thing

Bob - he’s doing ok

The sentry - manic megalomaniacal scary

The void - deeeep clinical
Depression with nihilistic suicidal fatalism.

Sentry could somehow get worse than the void

Academic_Stock_4642026-01-18 16:04

I wonder if the X-Men crossover will give Xavier an opportunity to suppress Void in Robert. So, Sentry can exist without void.

Longjumping-Bag-1122026-01-19 23:54

I think bucky could be a safer kill, considering all the story between bucky and tony stark, with doom possibly being a Tony variant
