Marvel Studios has unveiled a lot of details for their upcoming slates including Anthony Mackie’s Captain America: Brave New World, Harrison Ford’s Thunderbolts*, multi-starrer Fantastic Four, and so on. The studio’s new revelation about Avengers 5, however, invited fans’ attention to a grand level, primarily with Robert Downey Jr’s return to the MCU with a new character after Avengers: Endgame.

Marvel Studios has finally shifted the gear from the Kang narrative to a brand new storyline after Kang actor Jonathan Majors’ dismissal from the studios. Avengers 5, previously titled Avengers: The Kang Dynasty was well well-established within the cinematic universe. After his departure, several rumors surfaced including casting a new actor for Kang.

While bringing Doctor Doom into the picture as the new Big Bad of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, primarily for the two of the upcoming Avengers movies was also under the radar of speculations among fans, the sudden shift of plan is quite surprising. Now, it is fair to assume that the larger Kang narrative in the MCU is seemingly buried for now.

After making a smashing record for the highest-grossing franchise of all time with $30 billion, Marvel Studios Boss Kevin Feige alongside cast and directors of upcoming slates joined San Diego Comic-Con for several big reveals including the introduction to the title of the upcoming Avenger movie, now titled as Avengers: Doomsday.

Robert Downey Jr had a stunning run in the MCU as Tony Stark aka Iron Man for close to 16 years. The actor is among the stars who witnessed the foundation of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with his first Iron Man movie that came out in 2008 with Jon Favreau in the director’s chair.

The actor who claimed an Oscar recently for his outstanding performance in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is set to appear as Victor von Doom aka Doctor Doom in his second term in the studio.
