Sebastian Stan recently revealed that the actors involved in Avengers: Doomsday did not get a full script while filming. The makers of Avengers: Doomsday are trying their best to keep the plot of the movie at bay, and why would they not, as it is the most important film for the MCU right now? The buzz for the film is insane, as seen by the pre-sales of the movie, and it is because of the mystery attached to the entire project.

Now, Sebastian Stan’s revelation has pointed focus on what all went into creating this intricately fabricated shroud of mystery around the movie.

In an interview with Le Journal du Dimanche, published just recently, Sebastian Stan revealed that the actors, including himself, did not receive a full script for the movie while filming Avengers: Doomsday.

“We were just shooting scattered scenes,” said Stan.

“The producers didn't want us to read it in its entirety, to avoid journalists asking us questions,” the actor added.

He further told them that it is another way of working, compared to his working experience at Fjord under the direction of Cristian Mungiu. However, he acknowledged that he is now accustomed to the filming style, having done so for quite some time. He might be referring to his time working on the Avengers movies - Infinity War and Endgame.

The actor was unable to divulge any of the plot points of the movie in the Le Journal du Dimanche interview, just like the producers intended. Their experience with Tom Holland frequently giving away key plot points in interviews came in handy in devising a method of filming that ensures no one leaks anything, even if they wanted to.

While he kept his lips shut on Avengers: Doomsday, the Winter Soldier did reveal something important from Matt Reeves’ The Batman: Part II.

While talking about Avengers: Doomsday and how they filmed without a full script in the same interview, the actor confirmed that he will be playing Harvey Dent in The Batman: Part II. That particular information was just speculation up until now, but his direct mention clears things up about his role in the film. That means we will be seeing Two-Face in The Batman: Part II

Another frequent rumor about The Batman: Part II may become much more exciting with Stan's confirmation of Harvey Dent via Le Journal du Dimanche. Gotham may be bringing one particularly well-known married couple, since Scarlett Johansson has been widely reported to play Gilda Dent, Harvey Dent's wife. These revelations by Sebastian Stan about Doomsday and Batman have caused waves in the superhero community, with new details on the much-awaited movies for them to nerd out on.
