As a seasoned gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the Marvel universe, I must admit that the news of Robert Downey Jr.’s return as Doctor Doom has left me feeling somewhat divided. On one hand, it’s exciting to see Iron Man and Doom share the screen again. Their dynamic is a classic one that has captivated fans for years.
Recently, word got out that Robert Downey Jr. will reprise his role as Doctor Doom within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This announcement has stirred up varied opinions among fans; some feel that having RDJ play Doom could potentially tarnish Iron Man’s reputation, while others believe it might create confusion to witness the same actor portraying two characters without a clear in-universe rationale.
It seems that reports are pointing towards Robert Downey Jr. (RDJ) having started discussions about his return at least a year ago. Rumors also circulate that Marvel is planning to pay the Russo brothers, Anthony and Joe, around $80 million to direct “Avengers: Doomsday” and “Avengers: Secret Wars”. An even larger sum is reportedly being offered to RDJ for his role as Doctor Doom in both movies.
In the conversation at the Cosmic Circus AMA, it was mentioned that there’s no certainty about Robert Downey Jr.’s appearance in any films beyond the ones currently in production. The possibility of recasting Doom, given that this version isn’t from Earth-616, was brought up as a viable option due to its high probability.
Spidey: Will RDJ Doom be recast after Secret Wars?
Alex: It seems likely to me, yes. Since the origin of Earth’s Doom in RDJ’s universe isn’t from 616, there’s a strong possibility that he might be replaced by another actor.
Disgruntled fans who aren’t satisfied with the casting of Doctor Doom might find comfort in the possibility that a widely-accepted fan theory could be accurate. This idea postulates that Robert Downey Jr.’s portrayal of Doctor Doom in the MCU may not actually be the “true” Doctor Doom, but instead a variation who is eventually replaced by the genuine article, played by a different actor. The theory assumes that Marvel Studios is strategically preparing for the introduction of Doctor Doom, given his significance as a significant villain and cultural figurehead. It further suggests that Marvel might choose to cast a well-known actor, like RDJ, as a kind of ‘decoy’ Doctor Doom, paving the way for future events following Secret Wars and perhaps Battleworld.
