According to a new report, Marvel Studios is mulling over whether to keep Robert Downey Jr. as the MCU's Doctor Doom after Avengers: Secret Wars. We also have updates on Ghost Rider and the Blade movie.

Curious to know what Doctor Doom’s powers are in Marvel? Phase 6 has kicked off with the release of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, which will eventually lead into Avengers: Doomsday. In it, Marvel’s next big bad is played by Robert Downey Jr.

When Marvel Studios announced at last year’s San Diego Comic-Con that Robert Downey Jr. would be coming back to the MCU, fans were excited at first, until they heard he wouldn’t be returning as Iron Man.

With Robert Downey Jr. proclaiming "New mask, same task" when he was revealed as the MCU's Doctor Doom, and Anthony Mackie stating that he is "continuing" his legacy, this feeds into the notion that Doctor Doom will be directly tied to the MCU's Iron Man.

Robert Downey Jr will be introduced as Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday – but what if he’s not the real Doom?

Secret Wars may not bring a permanent end to Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom, according to a new rumor. Thanos dominated the Marvel universe for the better part of a decade thanks to being the big bad of the Infinity Saga.

Avengers: Doomsday stars Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, plus cast from Fantastic Four and Thunderbolts, like Pedro Pascal, Florence Pugh, and Joseph Quinn.

In Marvel Comics, Doom’s fixation on Franklin is legendary. He views the boy’s near-limitless powers as the key to creating and ruling Battleworld, a twisted reality of his own making as seen in Secret Wars.

A good chunk of Doomsday could focus on a clash between Avengers and X-Men with RDJ’s Doom cackling in the background, with a kidnapped Franklin by his side. The premise certainly gives the Fantastic Four a reason to breach their multiversal walls and zip over to 616 to meet the New Avengers.
