As a longtime Marvel enthusiast with over two decades of following this cinematic universe, I find myself both excited and apprehensive about the recent developments. The return of Robert Downey Jr., who played Iron Man so brilliantly, to the MCU as Doctor Doom is undeniably thrilling. However, the sudden change in the casting for Kang the Conqueror, originally played by Jonathan Majors, has left me scratching my head a bit.
It’s been announced that Robert Downey Jr., who had a break from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, will rejoin but in a different role – as Doctor Doom, the intriguing antagonist in the Marvel universe. This news has stirred excitement among fans and caused quite a buzz. He’ll be joining forces with other characters in the upcoming films titled “Avengers: Doomsday” and “Avengers: Secret Wars.” However, this new casting decision has also sparked some debate.
Initially, it was planned for actor Jonathan Majors to portray the villainous character Kang the Conqueror (Kang Khan Wong) in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), who was set to be a major antagonist following Thanos. This character, whose storyline was highly anticipated upon its release, was also rumored to appear in Avengers 5, known as “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.” The Kang character’s storyline was expected to continue in future installments, including Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, whose post-credit scenes were intended to lead up to “The Kang Dynasty.”
The epic movie “Avengers: Doomsday” is scheduled for theater release on May 1, 2026. With the details about the characters and the plot leaking out, it’s been confirmed that the Russo Brothers will be at the helm, and the Fantastic Four are expected to make an appearance as well. With excitement building among fans, they can’t wait to learn more about the upcoming events in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Due to his involvement in a domestic violence case, Marvel Studios chose to remove Majors from his role, which significantly impacted the story arc within the MCU. Notably, Robert Downey Jr.’s readiness to portray Doctor Doom affected upcoming projects as well.
It’s been suggested that the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, Fantastic Four: First Steps, might unveil Kang the Conqueror’s current status. According to tweets by @Updates4Marvel, it seems Doctor Doom could be responsible for dismantling the Council of Kangs, a group introduced in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. If this happens, Doctor Doom might take on the role of the main villain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) first.
Although these theories aren’t proven just yet, they suggest that the Studio may be planning a significant overhaul of Marvel’s script. Fans are eagerly awaiting details about how Robert Downey Jr. might appear as Doctor Doom and what other characters he could portray in the future development of the MCU.
