Robert Downey Jr. to Return to Marvel as Doctor Doom

The Actor Who Entertained Audiences as Iron Man for a Decade Will Return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to Play Victor Von Doom in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty

Robert Downey Jr., the actor who entertained audiences as Iron Man for a decade, will return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to play Victor Von Doom in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. The news was first reported by The Hollywood Reporter.

Downey Jr.'s return to the MCU is a surprise, as he has previously said that he was done playing Iron Man. However, the MCU's Multiverse Saga opens up endless possibilities for his return, as established concepts of multiple timelines and universes mean that there are infinite versions of Tony Stark.

The casting of Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom is a major coup for Marvel Studios. Downey Jr. is one of the most popular actors in the world, and his return to the MCU is sure to generate a lot of excitement among fans.
