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.

The panel on Saturday was flooded with hooded figures wearing masks of the comic book villain known for his sorcery and science when Downey Jr revealed his face. “I like playing complicated characters,” he said as fans began to chant his name.

    Doom is a pretty complex character and, ignoring his time as Stark, he can do the role justice.

    On my shortlist of Doom candidates: Cavil, Josh Holloway, Gabriel Macht, Mad Mikkelson, Javiar Bardem, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Josh Brolin, Anthony Starr, and Jeffrey Dead Morgan. Any of them could do a great job with Doom.
