Robert Downey Jr. Nearly Played Doctor ***** Over A Decade Ago

By now you’ve probably heard that Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, not as Iron Man, but as masked villain Doctor *****. This is not the first time he’s been tapped for the role, as he was considered to play the menacing physician before Iron Man even entered pre-production.

This information was first revealed a little over a year ago, when Marvel Studios released promotional material celebrating the first Iron Man movie’s 15th anniversary. In a conversation between director Jon Favreau and producer Kevin Feige, Favreau recalled, “You had all met with him already for like Doctor ***** or something, on another project… so everybody sort of knew who he was.” Feige apparently confirmed with a simple “right.” Model and actor Julian McMahon played Doctor ***** in the original two Fantastic Four films, both released before Iron Man.

Robert Downey Jr. won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar, as well as a Golden Globe and a BAFTA, for his portrayal of Lewis Strauss in Oppenheimer. At San Diego Comic ****, Marvel announced the titles of the next two Avengers movies: Doomsday and Secret Wars. The Russo brothers, who directed two Captain America films, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame, are also returning to direct the next two Avengers films.
