Fantastic Four Matt Shakman is hedging fan expectations about whether Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom, the Fantastic Four's most iconic enemy, will appear in the upcoming FF film. And if Shakman's latest remarks to Entertainment Weekly are to be believed, there will be a distinct lack of Doom in his big MCU film.
"Doom's a great character, but he takes up a lot of air," Shakman states in the interview. "Other film adaptations have done both an origin story and Doom. We're doing neither, and that allows us to look at them from a fresh perspective."
