However, a spanner was thrown into the hearts of all our emotions when Robert Downey Jr. was announced to be returning to theMCUbut not as Iron Man but as Fantastic Four villain,Doctor Doom.

We’re not sure how this version of Doctor Doom will be portrayed in the MCU, especially with the former Iron Man actor now donning a new iron mask but I’m pretty sure there will be multiverse shenanigans involved.

The ride will also take visitors to Wakanda where they’ll encounter Tony Stark’s Iron Man suits fromAvengers: Endgameas well as going to other locations such as Asgard and the Battle of New York from the 2012 movie.

Avengers: Infinity Defense will have many MCU variants, some from timelines that never existed in the movies, one of which is where Thanos’ snap never happened and Tony Stark’s Iron Man continued to exist.

What’s more, there will also be another new MCU ride on the way called Stark Flight Lab which will simulate being in the Iron Man suit and will again see Robert Downey Jr. return.

As for the main MCU, we know that Robert Downey Jr. will return in 2026’sAvengers: Doomsdaybut there could be a chance that his return is teased inFantastic Four: FirstSteps, currently scheduled to be released on 25 July 2025.
