Robert Downey Jr. Entering the armor of Doctor Doom In the next Avengers films will be madness, and the fans will come out when the first look at the MCU will give it.
Second Avengers: Doomsday co-journalist Joe RussoThis surprising choice of casting came directly from above Marvel, telling Omelete:
“This was Kevin [Feige]. Interestingly, that conversation was had some time ago. “
The revelation that Feige was the basis of the decision may not shock the longtime fans who saw Feige make other great decisions before. But by reporting Downey Jr., who actually launched the MCU, to play one of its most iconic bad guys now? It is wild.
However, even with the push of Feige, the Russian brothers were not immediately on board to return. Their reason is because there was no history hook. Joe said:
“So Robert tried to convince us to do [the Avengers movies] And we said no. Strangely, because we said we wouldn’t be back. We just didn’t have a story. We had no way of entering. We were resistant for a while.
“One day, [writer] Steve McFeelyOne of our main collaborators, he said: “I have an idea”. We went “this is the story”. That story must be told; It is a truly powerful story. “
That “powerful story” remains under the compresses, but Russo has dropped a suggestion that paints Doom like more than one bad guy who turns the mustache.
“The only thing I will say about the film: we love the bad guys who think they are the heroes of their own stories. It is then that they become three -dimensional and become more interesting. When you have an actor like Robert Downey Jr., you must create a three -dimensional character well done for the public.”
However THE Fantastic Four: first stepsMarvel has yet to confirm this cameo. But it makes sense for him to be introduced in this!
For now, everything we know is that Downey is actively making the version of Doom that will play in the MCU. Joe previously said:
“It is a very intense process that develops the character. [Downey] It is so immersed in it. It is so called. This is the type of artist who is. This is the type of actor who is.
“He is writing a background [and sharing] costume ideas. It’s really – we were only on the phone this morning, before arriving here, to talk about it. … loves only really rich three -dimensional characters and I think he sees a real opportunity here with that character. “
Avengers: Doomsday He is preparing for production and will hit cinemas on May 1, 2026.
