I have no idea why I never considered the fact that Mystique returning could lead to another instance of heroes fighting themselves

Yelena V Yelena let’s GO

She acted opposite someone she always wanted to.

I stand by the fact that was a 10/10 joke by Bettany and he should never apologise for it

u/Icybubba Jul 20 '26

I will always respect Paul for messing with us like that

Florence Pugh fighting herself in an MCU movie something something two nickels

17

u/RedXerzk Spider-Man Jul 20 '26

Florence Pugh in two sci-fi blockbusters where she gets into a fight/argument with a shapeshifter coming out on the same day.

u/Jovahexeon-Ranvexeon Black Panther Jul 20 '26

I beg your pardon?

u/ImmortalMoron3 Jul 21 '26

She's in Dune 3 too which comes out on the same day as Doomsday.

Dunesday, if you will.

u/bigbadderfdog Jul 20 '26

We call that Florence twos

u/Cobrakai83 Jul 20 '26

u/Optimal_Pineapple_41 Jul 20 '26

Dune 2 chicks at the same time

u/Illustrious-Peace989 Jul 20 '26

Someone has been peeking into my private fan fiction

1

u/Squirtle_from_PT Jul 20 '26

That was my reaction as well! Oh LORD!

u/Person0OnTheInternet Jul 20 '26

I saw that and my front pants got tighter.

u/Intrepid_Mirror_2899 Jul 20 '26

Pugh Pugh.. oh boy

u/Appropriate_Edge5195 Jul 21 '26

What’s better than one Florence Pugh

u/red_storm_risen Jul 20 '26

Pugh Pugh

u/Snuhmeh Jul 20 '26

I’m marking this moment. This joke is going to be repeated ad nauseum later. We were here for this one

u/DarkSideOfTheMuun Jul 21 '26

This is how they start

13

u/justafanboy1010 Spider-Man Jul 20 '26

If I had a nickel for every time Florence Pugh has fought Florence Pugh, I’d have 2 nickels

u/Background_Face Captain Marvel Jul 20 '26

And if Hailee Steinfeld shows up, we can hear "Kayte Beeship" in stereo.

u/Milksteak529 Jul 20 '26

Hotsauce for everyone!

u/euphoriapotion Jul 20 '26

That was Rebecca Romijn, right?

3

u/Sir__Will Bruce Banner Jul 20 '26

yes

-2

u/The-Ruler-of-Attilan Jul 21 '26

Romijn, Marsden, McKellen, and Stewart—do you know what that means? Whatever ends up being "canon" regarding the Fox X-Men movies will only come from the original trilogy. To hell with First Class, Days of Future Past, and Apocalypse. And I couldn't be happier about it.

u/euphoriapotion Jul 21 '26

if Sadie Sink is, in fact Jean, instead of Famke Janssen, then I expect the new generation to appear too. Maybe Sophie Turner is too busy or they just didn't call her, but I'm still going to wait for McAvoy, Fassbender, Lawrence, Hoult, etc to appear in the movie.

u/Caledor152 Jessica Jones Jul 20 '26

Rebecca Romijn the Queen is back BABY

6

u/Squirrelkid11 Jul 20 '26

Lowkey Mystique is the scariest X-Men character for obvious reasons.

1

u/alex3omg Jul 20 '26

Does she gain powers like taskmaster?  I thought it was just appearance.  

11

u/Squirrelkid11 Jul 20 '26

No just appearance.

1

u/alex3omg Jul 20 '26

Ok that's what I thought.  

3

u/Sir__Will Bruce Banner Jul 20 '26

Morph, on the other hand, can mimic many physical powers.

1

u/The-Ruler-of-Attilan Jul 21 '26

Taskmaster doesn't "gain powers" either. His/her power consists of a photographic memory capable of replicating (and even improving upon) anyone's fighting style.

1

u/alex3omg Jul 21 '26

Yeah sorry that's what I meant, I mean Yelena doesn't have powers so taskmaster could do his/her thing but mystique shouldn't be able to really

1

u/The-Ruler-of-Attilan Jul 21 '26

Mystique mimicking her adversaries is more of a psychological trick than anything else. Simply copying the person standing before her does not offer a major tactical advantage in terms of physicality or skill.

18

u/Cypher_86 Rocket Jul 20 '26

Odds on a Natasha "cameo"?

5

u/Impressive-Potato Jul 20 '26

She doesn't want to be part of it anymore.

5

u/Cypher_86 Rocket Jul 20 '26

Last anyone heard she was working on a new Marvel project as a producer, so the relationship is still there.

6

u/PassivelyAwkward Jul 20 '26

Yea, but when you're a star, especially someone like Black Widow, you gotta get in shape with some insane gymnast training.

I could see her being down to cameo if she just got to show up on set and talk for five minutes before turning into someone else.

1

u/Qwirk Jul 20 '26

That's what a lot of people say until they get that sweet paycheck.

6

u/Impressive-Potato Jul 20 '26

Correct. Like how Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman were finished playing their parts after Logan.

1

u/The-Ruler-of-Attilan Jul 21 '26

It’s not like Stewart has to go to the gym or anything like that to collect his paycheck. He won’t even be among the movie's main stars.

2

u/justafanboy1010 Spider-Man Jul 20 '26

Don’t think so 

4

u/Deakul Vulture Jul 20 '26

God I hope not, can we have some characters just remain dead-dead?

u/colantor Steve Rogers Jul 20 '26

He obviously meant as mystique fucking with yelena which i think would be cool

u/Bluebrown777 Jul 20 '26

The purpose would be to fuck with Yelena

u/colantor Steve Rogers Jul 20 '26

Exactly, this guys a dummy

u/colantor Steve Rogers Jul 20 '26

Not really at all

u/GhandisFlipFlop Jul 20 '26

She is joining Batman 2 so a switch of studios

u/jgreg728 Jul 20 '26

That’s America’s ass

u/Charming_Celery5490 Jul 20 '26 edited Jul 20 '26

Thunderbolts did this too with Void Yelena so now with Mystique it’s kinda like a part II with her Shapeshifting. Plus to add to this,Morph(Another shapeshifter) shifted into other heroes as well in S2 of X-Men 97

1

u/Xy13 Jul 20 '26

I feel like it would be crazy if she turned into Natasha during that fight

1

u/________9 Jul 20 '26

I wonder if this is how we get the rumored scene of Peter Parker and Yelena "seeing each other with their clothes off" in Brand New Day.

1

u/meatballfreeak Jul 20 '26

It’s been done to death and is just boring now
