- Robert Downey JR has published two new images behind the scene Avengers: Doomsday place
- The photographs do not give anything about the movie Marvel
- However, they have given fans renewed hope about their performance as the big bad of the film
Since Robert Downey JR took the stage at Comic-Con 2024 to reveal that he would be playing Dr. Doom at the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), it is safe to say that fans have divided into two camps.
In fact, Marvel optimists believe that the MCU superstar that returns, who previously played Tony Stark and Iron Man between 2008 and 2019, is a great option for the new Bad Bad of the Multiverse saga. However, others have the opinion that their return is a sign of the despair of the comic titan in the middle of the mixed reception to their recent films and television releases.
However, it seems that the number of those who were firmly sitting at the detractor camp is slowly decreasing. That has been particularly notable in recent days, especially in the light of the new images behind the scene that Downey JR has published in the Avengers: Doomsday place.
It should be noted that there are no spoilers in history to Doomsday From this point. However, I feel obliged to say that if you don’t want to know a single thing about the highly anticipated Marvel movie phase 6, you better get back now.
The first image, which was loaded to Downey JR Instagram on May 14, showed the autobiography recently launched by A-Lister MCU actor Jeremy Renner.
I would generally think that it is not worth informing. But if you look more closely at that photograph, you will notice two things.
On the one hand, Downey Jr wears a muscle suit. This implies that his opinion on one of the most notorious enemies of the fantastic four will be as physically imposing as mentally, and suggests that he can face face to face with many of the Marvel heroes who were included as part of DoomsdayThe initial cast of 27 strong.
The other possibly more important detail is the black dots on Downey Jr. this indicates that, with a little CGI tricks, Marvel will give the Downe JR doctor, von doom, his unmistakable face with scars, which generally hides behind his iconic metal -based mask.
Now, this does not confirm that Downey JR will not show his face like Doom at some time of one of the new films of 2026. However, my reading of the situation is that its disfigured face will be covered by that mask for a good amount of the execution time of this film. I think it will only be revealed if your mask is eliminated during a fight, or if Doom wants your adversaries to take a look at the permanent physical damage that you have endured in your possible search to stop (or cause, we do not know which one) the destruction of the multiverse.
The other image, which appeared online yesterday (May 16), does not contain any mockery that can cause new theories of fans about this iteration of fatality. However, it is intriguing to see that Downey JR is reading Marvel Comics that Star Doom, especially those written by Jonathan Hickman.
For the uninitiated: Hickman is the scribe behind the 2015 edition of the Marvel ‘Secret Wars’ comics series. Joe and Anthony Russo, who returned to MCU with Downey JR to direct the following two avengers films, previously told me that Hickman’s Run, in addition to the original story of ‘Secret Wars’, has inspired the plot of Doomsday And his sequel, also known as the MCU 2027 movie Avengers: secret wars.
Taking into account that both comic races will influence this movie duo, it is not a big surprise to see Downey Jr Reading Marvel Literary Works written by Hickman, especially those who involve Doom. Downey JR is someone who seems to do a lot of research for any role he plays, but it is still nice to see that he will address this role with the same taste and seriousness as any other.
Such preparation has not gone unnoticed either. As I alluded at the beginning of this article, fans, as expected, have collected the work that Downey Jr is putting in this role, and many are increasingly impressed. In fact, a rapid thread scan on the pages of Marvel Studios and Marvel Studios Spoilers Reddit confirms it.
Of course, as the saying goes, the test will be in the Buddine about whether Downey Jr’s performance is as good as fans expect. I am still worried that your doom will be revealed as a multiverse variant Stark, which would be the wrong approach to take such an iconic marvel supervillain. That said, I have renewed the hope that Downey Jr is a good condition, and these images definitely demonstrate why it probably is.
