Marvel confirmed this summer that Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars will keep their May 2026 and May 2027 release dates despite speculation that the Avengers movies in the Multiverse Saga might see delays following last year’s strikes. The Jonathan Majors accusations were also a potential cause for postponing the conclusion of the saga.
Kevin Feige made the best of the situation and delivered a massive surprise. Not only are the Russo brothers going to direct the movies, but Robert Downey Jr. will return. He won’t come back as Iron Man, at least not officially. He’ll play Doctor Doom, the big villain of both Doomsday and Secret Wars.
I hope this Doctor Doom version is actually a variant of Iron Man from the multiverse, and Marvel is just cleverly disguising the comeback of the MCU’s now-dead Iron Man. But there’s no leak to support this theory, and we’ll have to wait for plot spoilers to see if there’s any hope to see Iron Man return.
That said, there is one Secret Wars spoiler that we can all see coming. We don’t need the movie to end to determine whether RDJ will stay in the MCU as Doctor Doom. An insider has some information on that, and it’s exactly what you think. But I’ll warn you that minor spoilers might follow below.
