In Avengers: Doomsday, Marvel has given Robert Downey Jr. a new face; he is the villainous Doctor Doom. Downey is appearing in a Marvel movie for the first time since Avengers: Endgame.
The video that debuted at San Diego Comic-Con last month was released to the public Friday night, and was also displayed at D23.
Hugh Jackman also made an appearance in the D23 presentation in a video message, while Ryan Reynolds could be heard coaching from the sidelines for his role as Deadpool.
Jackman hinted that he’d be able to complete the cast of Avengers: Doomsday, but also said that he’d be willing to make Reynolds appear in the upcoming movie.
