Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark in Avengers: Endgame and Doctor Doom in the comics

Summary Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom will reportedly debut in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. For the first time since 2019's Avengers: Endgame, Downey will come back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. RDJ has been cast as Doctor Doom, with the character set to play a major role in the next two Avengers movies, Doomsday and Secret Wars. However, the villain will reportedly debut in one of Marvel's biggest 2025 movies.

Related Every Actor Cast In MCU's The Fantastic Four Movie The cast of Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four reboot has begun to be revealed, ahead of the highly-anticipated movie's release on July 25, 2025. With The Fantastic Four: First Steps likely taking place in a different universe and Ralph Ineson's Galactus being the film's main villain, there is a clear story that could be in play. The heroes could spend the movie trying to stop Galactus from coming to Earth and consuming their home. However, by the end of the movie, the team either realizes it has to escape and goes to Earth-616 — the main MCU — or Reed Richards and the others are brought to the MCU by an entity like the Watcher.

2 RDJ's Doctor Doom could then come from the Fantastic Four's universe. As Galactus is the main villain of The Fantastic Four: First Steps and Doom has appeared in all of the team's live-action films to date, it would make sense for the character to appear in his reported post-credits scene role. Doctor Doom could stay behind to watch his Earth get devoured by Galactus as the Fantastic Four escape.
