In the original Secret Wars comics, The Beyonder summoned Marvel heroes and villains to the planet Battleworld, where they fought for his amusement - a plot that could translate perfectly to the MCU and allow for epic clashes between Evans' Beyonder and Downey Jr.'s Doom.
The Beyonder chose to take the form of Captain America in the comics, so casting the actor who played Cap, Chris Evans, would create an intriguing link and allow the MCU to put a fresh spin on the classic storyline.
