At San Diego Comic-Con on July 28, the crowd was left in awe when a costumed supervillain took the stage, only to unmask and reveal Robert Downey Jr. himself.
The 59-year-old actor surprised the unsuspecting crowd, saying, “New mask, same task. What did I tell you? I love playing complicated characters.”
Filmmakers Anthony and Joe Russo are set to direct two Doctor Doom films: Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
The Russo brothers have directed some of the biggest films in the MCU, including Avengers: Endgame.
Joe Russo told the Comic-Con crowd (per Variety), “When we directed Avengers: Endgame, we genuinely believed it was the end for us in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.”
