Recently, Marvel Studios disclosed some new facts regarding Avengers: Doomsday and its main antagonist, Doctor Doom. An overview of the Disney 2026 Merchandise Expo validated the MCU entry of Doom. The description noted his command of science and magic, and his intention of opening up a crisis in the Multiverse.
The comic-accurate Doctor Doom is teased in Avengers: Doomsday
According to the rough translation of the synopsis of the Disney 2026 Merchandise Expo in China, the text is as follows: Doctor Doom has officially come to the MCU. Being a master of the latest science and a magical power, this villain will cause a domino effect on the whole Multiverse (through MovieWeb). Robert Downey Jr. will take the role of Victor von Doom, and will stir against the Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men and other groups in different realities.
Other marketing content of the expo also featured Doom in his armour and implied that Thanos would possibly get into a fight with him. Hi-tech art work showed finer details of his comic-true costume (runes that underline his command of magic).
Another thing that the fans pointed out was that Shang-Chi seemed to have Ten Rings on his arm. These appeared to connect these to Kamala Khan and her bangles and other Multiversal objects that used to be attached to Kang the Conqueror.
Robert Downey is going to the role well prepared. Filmmaker Anthony Russo told Entertainment Tonight, in an interview, that he is writing back story, costume ideas… he is simply fond of full-blooded characters, and he sees a genuine opportunity here.
During the SXSW in the spring, Downey also looked back at his time as Tony Stark and said, 17 years I have been, so to speak, linked to an iconic superhero, yet it is the message that he embodies that I am thankful to be affiliated with that message (via Screen Rant).
The combination of science and magic that Doom has experienced in the comics has enabled him to ascend to great heights of power, such as becoming God Emperor Doom in the 2015 Secret Wars.
The synopsis places him in the same light, meaning that his plots will have an impact on the Multiverse as a whole.
The Russo Brothers directed the movie Avengers: Doomsday, which was written by Stephen McFeely and Michael Waldron, boasts a huge cast of actors and actresses, including Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Florence Pugh, Simu Liu, Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, and X-Men alumni.
The movie is set to release on December 18, 2026.
