    Yes, that would be one heck of a twist… if they hadn’t revealed Dr. Doom’s identity at Comic-Con. And we don’t even know what the movie will be called, I might add. I think that if Disney was confident in whatever movie it is they’re making, they would have kept RDJ’s involvement on the down-low, to surprise the audience. Instead, they made this big hullabaloo about RDJ coming back.

    Far as I can tell, the casting can be explained in one of two ways:

    • This Dr. Doom is an alternate universe version of Tony Stark. But if this is true, why the heck would they spoil the reveal?
    • Second option is even worse: no alternate universe chicanery. This is MCU’s version of Doom. But that’s just lazy casting.
