- A new Marvel fans theory about Avengers: Doomsday is circulating online
- Fans think Robert Downey Jr is hinting that he will play two characters in the MCU movie
- A recent Instagram publication by Downey Jr is the fault
Robert Downey JR has caused a new and potentially huge theory among Marvel fans about Avengers: Doomsday.
Last Saturday (July 26), the actor Superstar, who will play Dr. Victor Von Doom in the next movie, published a seemingly harmless video on Instagram.
For the most part, the footage shows Downey Jr by hitting the work in one of his son’s songs (Indian Downey) in Spotify. Then, the A-Lister briefly floats the camera of your phone on a pair of Marvel comics, before turning it into the mouth towards the aforementioned melody.
They are those comics that have hit Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) fans in a frenzy.
Well, one of them, anyway. The First Comic We see is a copy of ‘Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars’, Aka The 12-Issue Run Created by Jim Shooter, Mike Zeck, and Bob Layton that Ran Ran from May 1984 to April 1985. That’s One of Two ‘Secret Wars’ Comic Series ESAd Rebic From May 2015 to January 2016 – That Joe and Anthony Russo Told Me They’re Taking Inspiration From For Doomsday and his movie sequel Avengers: secret wars. The fact that Downey JR is reading said series of comics for research purposes, so it is not a big surprise.
However, it is the other literary work, entitled ‘Iron Man: Legacy of Doom’, which has sent MCU devotees to a tail jet.
Taking into account that Downey JR played Tony Stark and his Iron Man Alter-Egoe Avengers: secret wars It arrives in December 2027.
However, Marvel fans have been reading much more and have even created a new fans theory about Downey JR’s casting in Marvel movie Phase 6, a hypothesis that certainly hopes it is wrong. Potentially large spoilers immediately follow for the next two Avengers films. Return now unless you really want to know what fans theorize.
Robert Downey JR plays two characters in Avengers: Doomsday?
For the uninitiated, ‘Iron Man: Legacy of Doom’ is a series of four -number comics that presents another confrontation between the homonymous armored superhero and fatality. According to the latter, the latter is most commonly associated as a archNIECE of the fantastic four, but is also dedicated to some stark fights in Marvel Comics.
In fact, ‘Legacy of Doom’ is the third time they block horns on the page. The first came in a two -part Iron Man history called ‘Doomquest’, which landed on shelves in 1981, while the second occurred in ‘The Doctor’s Passion’, another two -part narrative that was launched in 1989.
Okay, but what does this have to do with Downey JR possibly having a double role in Avengers 5 And his sequel, which is already one of the new most anticipated films of 2027? Some fans believe that Downey JR is indicating that he is playing fatality and A variant of Iron Man, or confirms its destiny is A variant of Stark itself.
The latter is a theory that is distributed online since it was revealed that Downey JR was playing fatality in the MCU in San Diego Comic-Con 2024. In fact, some fans have consulted why Marvel would hire Downe JR to play fatality if it were not a Magic Magic Stark of Magio Dark-Magic with a magic magic center. Hey, Iron heart He already showed that magic and technology can be mixed, so it is not as if someone as an evil Stark could not solve how to combine the two.

However, it is the other theory about Downey Jr playing Doom and another version of Stark/Iron Man, which has worried me.
Yes – And it’s a great yes – Doomsday Adapt some aspect of ‘Iron Man: Legacy of Doom’, we could have a situation in which the aforementioned situation becomes a reality. If he does, we could see the fatality of Downey Jr and a Stark variant, which would also be portrayed by the A-Lister, fighting the sample of how powerful it is and/or if Doom needs to acquire some technology that Stark has perfected.
The other possibility is that Downey JR will repeat her role as Stark/Iron Man in Secret Wars. There have been murmuring that Chris Evans can return as Steve Rogers/Captain America in the Sexth Avengers Movie, which according to the reports is announced as a celebration of each universe of Marvel comics that has never existed before the MCU suffers its soft posterior restart.Secret Wars. That includes the 20th Century Fox X-Men franchises, Sony’s three Spider-Man Universes and the MCU.
If that is the case, in Marvel’s eyes, it would not be an adequate commemoration without Downey JR being part of it. After all, the cinematographic universe of the comic giant began.
However, bringing Downey Jr as a stark in any way unraveling his heartbreaking but heroic sacrifice in 2019’s Avengers: Final of the game. In my opinion, that was the farewell, although bittersweet, which deserved, and I would detect it to return as Iron Man in Doomsday I Secret Wars that’s why. This is a fans theory, so I don’t want to see materialize.
Avengers: Doomsday It will be launched in theaters on December 18, 2026.
