Marvel España’s Avengers: Doomsday promo turns Málaga’s historic landmarks into a moody backdrop: the Alcazaba glows green, five hooded figures appear, and Anthony Mackie, David Harbour and Winston Duke join the campaign. The video is promotional material, not footage from the film—and it does not identify the figures.

What appears in the Málaga promo
The roughly 40-second clip includes a nighttime aerial view of the Alcazaba fortress, with the Roman theater below it also described as illuminated in green.
14 Reporting on the campaign says the Avengers symbol was projected onto the fortress and that Mackie, Harbour and Duke posed in front of the Roman theater.

The three actors are associated with their MCU roles as Captain America, Red Guardian and M’Baku.
8 The promo also features five hooded figures whose identities have not been disclosed in the reporting.

Why fans are speculating about the Black Swans
The matching green robes and the number of figures have prompted some coverage to suggest a possible Black Swans connection.

6 The theory draws added attention from separate speculation about hooded figures in Doomsday promotional artwork, which have been described as Latverian witches and linked by some reports to Doctor Doom and the Black Swans.

That is a theory, not a confirmation. Another report describes a Marvel display costume labeled “Latverian Witch” and notes that its color varied across the event, but that does not establish who appears in the Málaga video—or whether the figures belong to either group.
27 The promotional material and the clip leave the figures’ identities unresolved.
What the Black Swans connection does—and doesn’t—establish
Some coverage describes the Black Swans as a secretive order associated with Rabum Alal, a name linked in that reporting to Doctor Doom.

22 That association helps explain why fans are making the connection, but it does not prove that the hooded figures are Black Swans, Doom’s followers or any named characters.
The available reporting also does not verify the proposed casting theories. Hayley Atwell has discussed Doomsday storylines that were filmed and later dropped away, but that offers no evidence about the identities of the five people in the Málaga promo.

31 Separate coverage has described Ana de Armas casting talk as rumor and said her possible character was not identified.

The clearest takeaway
The promo is a striking location-based campaign for Avengers: Doomsday, not a plot reveal. Reporting describes the film as bringing Marvel heroes together against Doctor Doom, played by Robert Downey Jr.; a separate report gives its theatrical release date as December 18, 2026.

Until Marvel or the filmmakers identify the hooded figures, the Black Swans idea remains fan speculation. The video establishes the setting, the performers appearing in the campaign and the presence of five mysterious figures—but not their roles in the film.
