Robert Downey Jr stunned fans as the Iron Man star removed a mask during the San Diego Comic-Con Hall H panel to reveal that he will play Doctor Doom, one of Marvel’s biggest villains, in the upcoming film Avengers: Doomsday.

The panel on Saturday was flooded with hooded figures wearing masks of the comic book villain known for his sorcery and science when Downey Jr revealed his face. “I like playing complicated characters,” he said as fans began to chant his name.

    Agreed. This multiverse thing is killing their creativity. Would have been better to bring RDJ back as Tony from an alternate multiverse. Have the Avengers go get another Tony to solve a problem, and they end up with the superior iron man who is a complete narcissist and evil capitalist who never gained any humanity and stayed selfish. Picture pre iron man 1 Tony with the modern armor and power.
