During Marvel Studios’ panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige announced that Joe and Anthony Russo will return to direct two new movies: Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. The Russo brothers previously directed four movies for Marvel Studios: Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame.
However, the good news didn’t stop there.
The Russos stated that there is “one very, very important character that is required to do Secret Wars justice,” setting up the introduction of the notorious Doctor Doom. A group of green cloaked figures then took the stage in Doom masks, before one of them stepped forward to reveal himself.
Robert Downey Jr, who starred as the beloved Tony Stark/Iron Man in 10 films was announced to also be making a triumphant return, but in a new role, this time playing the iconic villain Victor von Doom.
After the success of the film “Deadpool and Wolverine” which was met with rave reviews over the weekend as well as plenty of box office glory, many are saying that Marvel is back on track but like all fandoms there are arguments over RDJ taking on the new role and if he will be Victor Von Doom or a just a Tony Stark variant.
