Marvel Studios has shared more information about the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie, including details about the main villain, Doctor Doom. At a recent Disney event, it was confirmed that Doctor Doom will be appearing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and he’s described as a brilliant scientist and sorcerer with a dangerous plan to cause chaos throughout the Multiverse.
Avengers: Doomsday teases a comic accurate Doctor Doom
According to a preview from the Disney 2026 Merchandise Expo in China, Doctor Doom is now part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This brilliant and magically powerful villain will cause a massive, universe-spanning crisis. Robert Downey Jr. will play Victor von Doom, and he’ll be taking on the Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men, and other hero teams from different realities (via MovieWeb).
More details from the expo showcased Doctor Doom’s impressive armor and suggested a future battle with Thanos. Detailed artwork revealed the complex design of his costume, staying true to the comics and featuring symbols of his magical power. Fans also spotted what looked like the Ten Rings from Shang-Chi on Doom’s arm, which seemed connected to the energy bands worn by Kamala Khan and other powerful objects previously linked to Kang the Conqueror.
Robert Downey Jr. is putting a lot of effort into preparing for his role. Director Anthony Russo told Entertainment Tonight that Downey is developing the character’s history, suggesting costume designs, and generally immersing himself in creating a complex and well-rounded character, seeing this as a great opportunity to do so.
I was really struck by something Robert Downey Jr. said at SXSW earlier this year. He talked about his time playing Tony Stark, and it wasn’t just about the character himself, but the hopeful message Tony represented that he really connected with. After 17 years with that role, it’s clear it meant a lot to him on a deeper level, and that’s something I think audiences will appreciate hearing.
Doctor Doom’s combination of scientific knowledge and magical ability has made him incredibly powerful, even allowing him to become a god-like ruler during the 2015 ‘Secret Wars’ storyline. The story’s description suggests his plans will have consequences for the entire Multiverse.
Avengers: Doomsday, directed by the Russo Brothers and written by Stephen McFeely and Michael Waldron, brings together a huge cast of actors. It stars Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Florence Pugh, Simu Liu, Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, and features some familiar faces from the X-Men movies.
The film will release on December 18, 2026.
