Robert Downey Jr. is an iconic actor in the MCU. He played the Iron Man role in Marvel for more than ten years as Tony Stark across various Marvel films. However, Iron Man died in Avengers: Endgame in 2019 while fighting Thanos, the main antagonist in the film.
Doctor Doom, or Victor Von Doom, is among the most notorious villains in Marvel, often dubbed the greatest villain in fiction. The villain is expected to appear in Avengers: Secret Wars and Avengers: Doomsday films. The decision to have Robert Downey Jr. play the villain has sparked controversies and confusion online. Many fans criticized this contrast, but comics reveal there have been a lot of crossovers between Iron Man and Dr. Doom.
Some fans speculate that Dr. Doom will have no links to Iron Man. However, others suggest Dr. Doom is an evil multiverse version of Tony Stark. Infamous Iron Man comics hint that Stark falls into a coma after Civil War 2 events, prompting Victor Von Doom to take his place. Doctor Doom creates Iron Man armor and becomes Infamous Iron Man.
Downey’s Dr. Doom role replaced that of Kang the Conqueror, the supervillain in The Fantastic Four. In 2022, Marvel revealed that Kang the Conqueror would appear in the next Avengers film, Kang Dynasty, as the main villain. However, the film has now been rebranded as Doomsday. In December 2023, Kang the Conqueror actor Jonathan Majors was found guilty of assaulting his ex-girlfriend, prompting Marvel to cut ties with the actor.
