*Avengers: Doomsday* hits theaters on **December 18**, and it’s packed. With dozens of heroes in the mix, the headline names grab all the attention. But a handful of supporting characters could quietly be among the strongest in the movie. Here’s the case for each.

For film background, see [Avengers: Doomsday on Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avengers:_Doomsday).

## Doomsday Power Rankings

| Character | Actor | Core Strength | Threat Level |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Franklin Richards** | n/a (child role) | Reality-warping potential | Extreme |
| **Love** | India Rose Hemsworth | Cosmic energy plus Stormbreaker | Very high |
| **Namora** | Mabel Cadena | Atlantean-level strength | High |
| **Cassie Lang** | Kathryn Newton | Size-changing | High |
| **Nightcrawler** | Alan Cumming | Teleportation and swordsmanship | High |
| **Ghost** | Hannah John-Kamen | Intangibility | High |

*The threat levels are my own editorial rankings, not official ones.*

### 1. Franklin Richards

In *The Fantastic Four: First Steps*, Galactus wanted baby Franklin because of the Power Cosmic inside him. The film proved him right when the child revived a fallen Sue Storm with a touch. A post-credits scene then showed Doctor Doom kneeling before the boy with his mask in hand.

In the comics, Franklin can warp reality, once built a pocket universe to protect Earth’s heroes and helped rebuild the Multiverse after *Secret Wars*. If the movie borrows even a bit of that, a small kid could be the most powerful being on screen.

### 2. Love

Love debuted in *Thor: Love and Thunder* as the daughter of Gorr the God Butcher, brought back by Eternity’s wish. She came back changed, firing energy beams from her eyes in her first fight. She also wields **Stormbreaker**, the axe that can summon the Bifrost, and spent time adventuring with Thor himself. That’s cosmic power with expert training.

### 3. Namora

Namora is more than Namor’s henchwoman. In the comics she shares his hybrid physiology, giving her comparable strength, and she’s a core member of the Agents of Atlas. *Black Panther: Wakanda Forever* showed her tearing through Wakandan soldiers and helping flood a royal warship. The fourth trailer reportedly confirms her return alongside Talokan.

### 4. Cassie Lang

Don’t write her off as Ant-Man’s kid. *Quantumania* showed she’d built her own size-changing suit and a Quantum Realm beacon, and she held her own against Kang’s soldiers. In the comics, as Stature, she grows to skyscraper height with Giant-Man-level strength and has faced both Doom and Kang.

### 5. Nightcrawler

Alan Cumming returns as Kurt Wagner for the first time since 2003. He’s the X-Men’s gentle heart, but *X2* showed his darker side when a brainwashed Nightcrawler cut through the Secret Service and nearly reached the President. Teleportation makes distance and walls irrelevant, and in the comics he’s also an elite swordsman.

### 6. Ghost

Ava Starr is back after *Thunderbolts*, which ended with her team rebranded as the New Avengers. In her debut she repeatedly overpowered Ant-Man and the Wasp. Her intangibility makes conventional attacks nearly useless, and she brings assassin training and stabilized quantum energy.

## What to Watch For?

1. **Franklin’s role.** Doom’s interest in him is the biggest unanswered question.
2. **Talokan’s involvement.** Namora’s return suggests a larger underwater presence.
3. **Nightcrawler’s first fight.** It could be a showstopper.
