Robert Downey Jr stunned fans as the Iron Man star removed a mask during the San Diego Comic-Con Hall H panel to reveal that he will play Doctor Doom, one of Marvel’s biggest villains, in the upcoming film Avengers: Doomsday.

    I’d love for the first Dr. Doom in the MCU to just be the Victor Von Doom we know from the comics. After that, sure, bring on the alternate reality versions.

      Technically, with the multiverse, everything that has gone before is out there and part of the MCU. So we’ve had multiple Dooms, the first one in films being Joseph Culp.
