Explained simply

The Avengers are a group of superheroes in Marvel films, brought together when a threat is too large for one hero to face alone. Their stories sit within a wider series of films where characters and events can cross over, including those featuring the X-Men.

Doctor Doom is a long-running Marvel villain, usually portrayed as the ruler of the fictional country of Latveria. In this film, he is played by Robert Downey Jr, who previously played Iron Man; Chris Evans returns as Steve Rogers, also known as Captain America. Sandra Hüller is an Oscar-nominated German actor whose films include Anatomy of a Fall and The Zone of Interest.
