- New teaser for Avengers: Doomsday teases links between Iron Man and Doctor Doom.
- Video shows two masks back-to-back suggesting a Stark-Doom connection.
- Costume racks include Doctor Doom, Sue Storm and Franklin Richards, hinting at their roles.
- The imagery leans into a multiverse storyline and deep character ties.
A newly dropped teaser for Avengers: Doomsday hints that the upcoming Marvel epic may draw deeper links between Robert Downey Jr.’s two major roles: his original portrayal of Tony Stark/Iron Man and his upcoming turn as Doctor Doom.
The clip, uploaded to the production firm AGBO’s TikTok, is full of subtle easter-eggs and doesn’t show actual film footage, but fans are already dissecting it for clues.
Inside the short behind-the-scenes snippet, two women stand back-to-back: one holding an Iron Man helmet, the other with Doctor Doom’s metal mask. The visual suggests a possible connection or doppelgänger relationship between Stark and Doom.
It feeds into the long-running fan theory that Doctor Doom may in fact be a multiverse variant of Tony Stark. According to the teaser, the side-by-side mask imagery seems to reinforce that idea.
Hidden Costumes Point To Plot Threads
At about the 13-second mark, the camera pans past racks of costumes that look like those for Doctor Doom, Sue Storm (Invisible Woman), and Franklin Richards.
These characters are key in the comics: in the 2015 limited series Secret Wars, Sue becomes Doom’s queen and Franklin becomes his son in the patchwork reality of Battleworld.
The teaser’s inclusion of their costumes has reignited speculation that the film will borrow from that storyline.
What This Means For The MCU Event
If indeed the film adapts those comic elements, it would set up a scenario where Doom is no mere villain, but someone with deep ties to other core characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The Stark-Doom parallel could mean Stark’s legacy is either mirrored or subverted, someone who started in a familiar place but ended up very differently. And by showing Sue Storm and Franklin Richards’ outfits, the film seems to be telling us the “Fantastic Four” thread is more than cameo: it could be integral. Given that Doom, Sue and Franklin are all present, the stakes appear higher and more personal.
The film is scheduled for December 17 / 18, 2026 and is part of Marvel’s Phase Six slate. While no official plot summary has been released, the teaser strongly sets the tone and suggests a layered story, not simply a villain-attack-on-Earth affair, but one tied into identity, variants and multiverse history.
Why This Teaser Matters
- First, it builds anticipation by showing rather than telling: no dialogue, just imagery that screams “connect the dots”.
- Second, it builds on casting news: Robert Downey Jr. will play Doctor Doom after having famously played Tony Stark/Iron Man. That alone sparked major speculation.
- Third, it hints at big crossover stakes: when characters like Sue Storm and Franklin Richards show up, expectations shift. The film may not just be about Earth’s Avengers but about legacy, family and multiversal consequences.
