Everyone knows How good Robert Downey Jr. Is as Tony Stark aka Iron Man. But do you know that Marvel also offered him a Villainous Role before he has been Casted as Tony Stark.
Today, No One can imagine Tony Stark Without Robert Downey Jr. He definitely owned the Character. But before he was Casted as Tony, Marvel Has Offered him villainous character Doctor Doom. It was even before MCU exited.
Jon Favreau (Director and actor of MCU) Aka Happy said: “Marvel had already met with [Robert Downey Jr.] before, I think, to play Doctor Doom”.
Doctor Doom is an archenemy and sometimes ally of archenemy of Fantastic Four. King of the fictional country in Marvel Comics called Latveria, he possessed a genius level of intellect who has invented several nefarious machines that have troubled superheroes.
What makes him dangerous is that he is also familiar with sorcery and uses both science and magic to devastating effects.
While the character is yet to appear in MCU (his last on-screen appearances were in 2005 film Fantastic Four and its 2007 sequel Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer), it is perhaps well that Downey Jr did not accept the role. Later, He Has been Casted for his iconic role - Iron Man.
