Robert Downey Jr's FIRST LOOK as Doctor Doom LEAKED from 'Avengers: Doomsday' sets
The first look of Robert Downey Jr as Marvel's newest supervillain, Doctor Doom, has been leaked online. A new photo from the sets of Avengers: Doomsday has revealed what appears to be Downey Jr in full costume as the infamous Doom. The photo, which is quickly making the rounds online, shows a figure clad in metallic armour with a dark green hood and matching cape — instantly recognisable to comic book readers as the classic look of Victor Von Doom. — sm_leak (@sm_leak) This is the first picture of the actor in character for the highly anticipated film. The costume itself has fans buzzing. With its intricate armor, cloak, and faithful design, many are calling it the most comic book-accurate adaptation of the supervillain seen on screen to date. Unlike previous interpretations that saw doom in a suit, this practical armour has fans waiting to see the final output on the big screen. Social media reactions have been overwhelmingly positive. One fan wrote, 'An actual suit instead of mocap is badass. I'm sure they'll use CGI at some point but kudos for this.' Others echoed the sentiment, praising Marvel for leaning into a tangible, physical design rather than relying entirely on post-production effects. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Container Houses Egypt (Prices May Surprise You) Container House | Search Ads Search Now Undo Avengers: Doomsday is expected to usher in a new era of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with Doctor Doom reportedly being positioned as the next major overarching antagonist following Thanos.

Marvel Will Skip San Diego Comic-Con's Hall H Again This Year
After a massive 2024 panel with Robert Downey Jr., Kevin Feige and the Avengers are taking the year off. Doctor Doom is already destroying things in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He's got his eyes set on the Fantastic Four, Avengers, and now with his movie, Avengers: Doomsday, having been pushed until December 2026, he's taken a big bite out of San Diego Comic-Con too. Marvel Studios won't have one of its signature Hall H panels this year. The news was first reported by the Hollywood Reporter which io9 then confirmed with a source at Marvel Studios. The reasoning is all pretty understandable. Avengers: Doomsday was supposed to come out in May 2026 but is now coming out in December 2026. That means there will be a whole other Comic-Con before its release. With the cast now filming that movie, the studio must have felt like it simply couldn't deliver on the blockbuster panels of the past. And so, it's taking the year off. This isn't the first time Marvel Studios has skipped Hall H either. In 2011, 2015, 2018, and 2023, the studio skipped because either movies were too busy with production or there simply wasn't enough concrete news to share in order to live up to the studio's standard. And make no mistake, Marvel has high standards when it comes to Hall H. Anytime there is a panel, it becomes the biggest event of the weekend, and after last year's panel that culminated in the reveal of the Russos coming back for two Avengers movies, as well as Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, that would've been a hard to follow no matter what. So that's the case here. There's just one movie in production, which was already delayed to give the filmmakers more time, so taking a week off to promote a movie 18 months away without footage certainly seems excessive. Especially when it could come back next year with footage, cast members, and maybe even news about what the future holds, too. That's not to say Marvel won't be at Comic-Con at all in 2025. Other branches of the company will have panels for comics, games, and more—and with The Fantastic Four: First Steps opening in theaters during Comic-Con, there will be a large presence on the convention floor, including an immersive booth. Marvel is also promising 'other surprises,' which could mean almost anything. Don't forget, last year, Deadpool & Wolverine opened during Comic-Con so the studio showed the movie in Hall H. Maybe that could happen again? Plus, fans looking for Marvel convention news won't have to wait long. It'll be at CCXP in Mexico this weekend with news and footage on Fantastic Four. Are you bummed Marvel won't be at Hall H this year? Do you expect to DC to fill that slot? Let us know below.

THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS Post-Credits Scene Details Leak as Recent Test Screening — GeekTyrant
Marvel's The Fantastic Four: First Steps held a surprise test screening in Los Angeles recently and now, one of its post-credits scenes has reportedly leaked online. It's interesting that Marvel actually held an early test screening like this. Some fans believe Marvel might be worried about how this film will land—especially after Thunderbolts* didn't exactly set the box office on fire, despite receiving some of the best reviews. Others believe it's Kevin Feige trying to recalibrate the MCU and get a read on what fans actually want. But regardless of the studio's motive, one thing's certain, if you hold a test screening on a big film like this, leaks were bound to happen. What we didn't expect was this kind of leak, especially so far ahead of the film's July 25 release. According to industry scooper @MyTimeToShineH, the post-credits scene in question involves Sue Storm reading to her and Reed's son, Franklin. She briefly leaves the room, and when she returns, Doctor Doom is sitting beside Franklin, mask in hand. It's explained that his face is never shown but both the costume and mask are described as 'very comic accurate.' Placing Doom in direct proximity to Franklin? That could mean big things. In the comics, Franklin Richards isn't just any kid, he's a reality-warping powerhouse. So if Doom's already targeting him, it adds serious weight to the theory that the Fantastic Four didn't just survive the collapse of their universe, they were pushed into action because of Franklin. Doom kicking off the events that lead Marvel's First Family to Earth-616 would be a smart way to tie this origin story directly into the bigger picture, namely Avengers: Doomsday . The scooper also shared a tidbit about Chris Evans, who fans have speculated might appear in the movie as either Johnny Storm or a variant Steve Rogers: 'I know for a fact he filmed something so it was either cut or will be in the final version of the film." So it sounds like the door isn't entirely closed on a surprise Evans cameo, just maybe not in this version of the cut. And to be clear, this is only one of the post-credits scenes. Marvel has a history of making eleventh-hour changes, so even if this moment was in the screening, it might not survive the final edit. Stay tuned, and maybe keep your expectations flexible. We're in the multiverse here.

Wild Details Reprotedly Leak for AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY and SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY; Doctor Doom, Sentinels, and Savage Hulk!? — GeekTyrant
Marvel Studios is setting up for some massive swings in 2026, and if the latest reports are to be believed, things are going to get multiversal-level crazy. Details reportedly pulled from a Disney Consumer Products presentation in Las Vegas are spilling onto the Internet, giving us a tease at where Avengers: Doomsday and Spider-Man: Brand New Day are heading. And Doctor Doom, the X-Men, and even Savage Hulk are in the mix. According to Reddit user Pomojema_The_Dreamer, who also contributes to Star Wars News Net, the sizzle reel and concept art shown behind closed doors included some big reveals. Most notably? Avengers: Doomsday is said to kick off in Wakanda, with Shuri, Namor, and M'Baku showing off updated looks. But the crazy thing that was shown was that Doctor Doom is allegedly controlling the Sentinels, the mutant-hunting robots we saw standing outside the X-Mansion in earlier set photos. This sets up a major confrontation, with the X-Men, who are now in comic-accurate suits, and it sees Deadpool, Gambit, Shang-Chi, and the Invisible Woman all reportedly uniting to take them down. The reality being explored here seems to be Earth-10005, a mashup of the classic X-Men films, Deadpool & Wolverine , and the post-credits stinger from The Marvels . The idea of Doom wielding Sentinel tech has comic book precedent. The guy's no stranger to commanding killer robots, whether it's Doombots or something even nastier. Combining mutant-hunters with Latverian tech feels like a classic Marvel escalation, and it gives Avengers: Doomsday an interesting edge. On the Spider-Man side of things, Brand New Day concept art reportedly confirms Tarantula as one of the villains joining the fray. While several characters have taken the mantle, it looks like we're getting the original, Anton Miguel Rodriguez, who is a former revolutionary-turned-nationalist super-soldier. It's also said that the marketing campaign may position Savage Hulk as the movie's main villain. So, Spider-Man vs. Hulk! That's a very cool move it true! It'll be really interesting to see how that plays out! I hope this is the direction the story is going. Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters on July 31, 2026, while Avengers: Doomsday follows on December 18, 2026.

Captain America's Team in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY Reportedly Revealed; Plus Doctor Doom's Crew — GeekTyrant
The Russo Brothers are returning to direct the final two films in the Multiverse Saga, and just like they did with Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame , the final two movies in the Infinity Saga, they are making these flicks super high-stakes and major events in the MCU. As we head into the year long wait to see Avengers: Doomsday , bits of info, both verified and rumored, will really start to ramp up. In the upcoming film, we know that Earth's Mightiest Heroes will assemble to battle RDJ's Doctor Doom, and aside from the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and New Avengers, we know Captain America will lead his own team of Avengers.

They're officially on his team, with She-Hulk likely to join them. The site notes that Latveria, the fictional country from the Marvel Comics universe ruled by the supervillain Doctor Doom will also be featured in Avengers: Doomsday . The small, isolated European nation is located in the Banat region, and is often portrayed as having a distinct culture and history. The country is known for its advanced technology and the strong grip Doctor Doom maintains on its people. Regarding Doom's team, it's said, "we've already met them." That either means they're Multiversal Variants of familiar characters or villains from previous MCU movies. So far, Avengers: Doomsday stars Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Winston Duke, Tom Hiddleston, Sebastian Stan, Letitia Wright, Paul Rudd, Robert Downey Jr., Wyatt Russell, Simu Liu, Tenoch Huerta Mejia, Florence Pugh, Danny Ramirez, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, and Lewis Pullman, as well as The Fantastic Four: First Steps leads Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn, with X-Men franchise stars Kelsey Grammer, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, Rebecca Romijn, James Marsden, and Channing Tatum set to join them.
