After nearly a year of rumors, whether Doctor Doom is in The Fantastic Four: First Steps has been revealed. Robert Downey Jr.'s new Marvel Cinematic Universe character is going to be the main villain of the two Avengers movies, 2026's Avengers: Doomsday, and 2027's Avengers: Secret Wars, which were both recently delayed from May to December in their respective release years. Since the villain is the nemesis of Marvel's First Family, it would make sense for Doctor Doom to be part of The Fantastic Four: First Steps' cast, but it just might not be in the cards.
