![]() ![]() The MCU has plenty of candidates for the Avengers Tower owner, given Marvel's additional characters. Since Disney can now use Fox characters, members of the Fantastic Four are possible. After all, the Fantastic Four likely need a location for their headquarters, the Baxter Building. ![]() After all, if Marvel goes into its own coffers for characters, it won't have to rely on Sony continuing to allow the MCU to use its assets. However, the films have always stopped short of revealing the new owner, now making a Spider-Man connection more doubtful. In addition to Homecoming, Marvel teased the Avengers Tower in Spider-Man: Far From Home, with Spidey swinging by the renovated building. Given the teases, an MCU version of Norman Osborn was long-rumored as a potential owner of Avengers Tower, with the structure serving as the headquarters for Oscorp. Since Marvel's most prominent Avengers Tower teases have come in Spider-Man movies, the owner likely had a connection to Spider-Man at some point. As a result, the Avengers Tower buyer likely changed. This allowed Marvel to include several new characters in the MCU, such as the Fantastic Four and the X-Men. However, Disney completed its deal to buy Fox assets and get the rights to its characters in 2019. Marvel likely changed the owner of the Avengers Tower, and there's some evidence for the theory. Since Marvel first teased the Avengers Tower's new owner in 2017's Homecoming, the MCU likely knew the owner's identity then.

The scene focuses on Kate watching Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) as the Stark/Avengers Tower looms in the background. In the meantime, fans will undoubtedly be keeping their eyes peeled to see whether or not they can spot a new name on the building’s façade during Hawkeye when it hits Disney+ later this month.Hawkeye revived the mystery surrounding the Avengers Tower's owner. The Hawkeye premiere looks at the events of 2012's The Avengers from a new perspective, showing a young Kate Bishop (played later by Hailee Steinfeld) witnessing Loki's (Tom Hiddleston) attack on New York. Whether or not Avengers Tower ends up becoming the Baxter Building or the corporate headquarters of Oscorp remains to be seen, and Tran and the other folks at Marvel certainly seem intent on not giving too much away. In the comics, even a variant of Nathaniel Richards (aka Kang the Conqueror) purchased the building under the name of Mister Gryphon for his own business empire, Qeng Enterprises.Ĭonsidering that Marvel Studios have continued to tease the building’s importance throughout its films, it is likely that whoever the new owner is will eventually be revealed to have a major impact on the continuing future of the MCU. Over the years, fans have linked it with everyone from Spider-Man villain Norman Osborn/Green Goblin through to the Fantastic Four’s Reed Richards. ![]() ![]() Given Marvel’s penchant for misdirection and keeping their plot points tightly under wraps, Tran’s evasive answer probably comes as little surprise for MCU fans desperate to know which Marvel character may have purchased the building. While she didn’t let any explicit information out of the bag, the producer did say she was curious to “ hear any and all. Now, Tran has thrown more fuel on the fire, after being asked by Cinemablend who the new building owner may be.

Since then, the building has briefly appeared again in both Avengers: Infinity War and during the conclusion of Spider-Man: Far from Home. In 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming, audiences learned that the building had been sold to a new buyer, and Tom Holland’s Peter Parker stepped in to prevent Michael Keaton’s Vulture from stealing the Stark technology being moved from the building. Despite the Avengers’ move, however, the building that was once the crown jewel in Tony Stark’s business empire has continued to play a significant role throughout later films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. ![]()
