The first official Avengers: Doomsday trailer is finally here, giving us our first real look at Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. However, thanks to some confusing angles and a rather bizarre accent, the highly anticipated trailer has me worried that Marvel may have taken the wrong direction with this new villain. That is, unless Marvel has another trick up its sleeve.
Avengers: Doomsday hasn't had the easiest road to the big screen. Once intended to be Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, the project saw a complete overhaul followed by a series of delays. But excitement for the fifth Avengers movie soon shot up again after Marvel's famed Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2024 saw unmasked Iron Man star Downey as Doctor Doom, confirming the movie had swapped out Kang the Conqueror for the green-suited baddie.
