The Russo Brothers, who directed Avengers: Endgame, are hinting at fresh updates regarding Robert Downey Jr.’s impending comeback to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In the upcoming Avengers film, we can expect Downey Jr. to reprise his role.
Joe and Anthony Russo, who previously directed Marvel hits such as Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Infinity War, and Endgame, will once again be at the helm, overseeing the final chapters of the multi-part saga – specifically Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
But this time around, Downey Jr. will not reprise his role as Tony Stark; instead, he will be cast as one of Marvel’s greatest villains: Doctor Doom.
The surprise casting has only generated hot speculation among fans, but the Russo brothers are certain that Downey Jr. is the best fit for the role. They admitted that even though his return is kept under wraps, they could not imagine another actor bringing this version of Doom to life the way he could.
Anthony Russo told The Times, “We can’t explain that as it’s part of the story. But there’s nobody else in the world who could play this character the way he’s about to.”
Downey Jr. revealed his new role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe at the San Diego Comic-con 2024 Hall H. His surprise announcement made 6500 fans sitting in the audience lose their mind. At that time, Joe Russo said, per The Hollywood Reporter, “If we’re going to bring Doctor Doom to the screen — he is one of the most complex characters, most entertaining characters in all of fiction.”
He added, “If we’re going to do this, then we are going to need the greatest actor in the world.” Hence, with RDJ’s résumé, there should hardly have been any doubt about the casting process.
Meanwhile, word is also leaking that Robert Downey Jr.’s new role may arrive earlier than anticipated. According to Comicbook, the rumor suggests the appearance could happen in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Since Doctor Doom has been the greatest enemy of the Fantastic Four ever since he was introduced in comics in 1962, many find this development just fits in perfectly.
