The first Avengers: Doomsday trailer has finally released online after months of fevered anticipation, and with it the first snippet of Robert Downey Jr.'s performance as Doctor Doom. But despite the many thrilling teases (Loki! Mystique! Herbie!), all anyone can talk about is RDJ's 'Latverian' accent.
The trailer opens with an ominous bit of Doom narration: "Something's coming, something we may not be able to deter. Before this day is done, we should be faced with an unthinkable decision," delivered in pseudo-Eastern European speech. While it's only two sentences, it gives a pretty clear sense of what Downey Jr. is going for with Doom, and it couldn't be more different from his iconic Tony Stark delivery.
