Along with insisting {that a} Champions mission is occurring, Perez went on to verify that some particulars of the leaked idea artwork for Secret Wars had been certainly correct – particularly, the inclusion of Wiccan (Billy Maximoff) as one of many younger heroes we’ll see within the movie. As Perez tells it, Billy will “for certain” get a second “to shine” in Secret Wars; apparently, we’ll additionally “undoubtedly” get a much bigger lineup of Champions/Younger Avengers staff members than seen within the leaked art work. The leak confirmed Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld), Cassie Lang (Kathryn Newton), Tommy Maximoff/Pace (actor unknown), Billy Maximoff/Wiccan (Joe Locke), and Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani), sitting at a cantina desk with Star-Lord (Chris Pratt) and Wong (Benedict Wong).
