Rumored Plans For Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY

There are so many questions about Robert Downey Jr. returning to the MCU, but this time as Doctor Doom. While fans are excited about this, they also don’t know what in the hell it means or what to expect from it.

Is the actor playing an evil Variant of Tony Stark, or will he be playing "Victor Von Doom," which is how he was introduced at Comic-Con? It seems to me like he's been cast as an entirely new character, which is weird, but we’ll have to wait and see what they do.

Industry scooper MTTSH claims to have some inside information on the film and what Marvel’s plan is for the character in Avengers: Doomsday.

It’s explained: "Doom isn’t truly evil; he believes he’s saving the Multiverse from incursions. According to his twisted logic, the only way for the Multiverse to survive is to unify all universes in one place (Battleworld) under his rule. He sees this as the sole path to ensuring survival for everyone."

This is a storyline that I could see play out, at the same time, it’s so early in the process of development, that who knows if this is even true!?

The sympathetic angle for the villain of the story is something Marvel plays with a lot in their films, so it wouldn’t surprise me if they go that route again with Doctor Doom.

As for the story, unless you’re in the room where that story is coming together, we aren’t going to know for sure where Marvel and the Russo Bros. are going with this.
