AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY Concept Art Reveals First Look At Robert Downey Jr. As Doctor Doom, And More - SPOILERS

Marvel Studios artist Mushk Rizvi has shared some of her designs for several characters from Avengers: Doomsday, and it looks like we may have our first glimpse of RDJ's Doctor Doom!

Some very revealing concept art for a number of upcoming Marvel Studios projects has been shared online, and while this really can't be considered a leak since it was shared by artist Mushk Rizvi herself, we can't imagine the studio is aware that she's posted it to her official site!

The artwork below gives us a first look at the character design for Robert Downey Jr.'s take on Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday, as well as Star-Lord, Hulk, She-Hulk, Skaar, and several members of the Young Avengers, including Kate Bishop, Kamala Khan, Cassie Lang, and Billy Maximoff along with who we assume to be his brother, Tommy.

There are also a number of alternate designs for what appears to be the MCU's new Black Panther (T'Challa).

We're not sure if these designs will ultimately inform what we see on the screen, but considering the artwork is marked "Concept and Development Work (2022 - Early 2024)" on the site, we'd say there's a pretty good chance the characters will look at least similar to this when we meet them in Doomsday next year.  

We're not sure how long these images will stay up, so check them out at the links below while you can!

Avengers: Doomsday arrives in theaters on May 1, 2026, followed by Avengers: Secret Wars on May 7, 2027. Both films will be directed by the Russo brothers, who also make their MCU return after helming Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.

"Being able to create stories and explore characters within the Marvel Universe fulfilled a life-long dream of ours, and we discovered a powerful connection with audiences in each film that we made. We’re thrilled to collaborate once again with Kevin, Lou and the entire Marvel team to bring this epic adventure in storytelling to new and surprising places for both the fans and ourselves”, said The Russos in a statement after the SDCC panel.

Both movies are expected to shoot (almost) back-to-back, with production kicking off this April in the UK.

Im probably on the minority, but SheHulk is the character Im most interested about seeing on Doomsday, since she is a new member and will be the first time we see her on the movies.

I love when big team movies add new members, to get to see how the new members meet the current heroes, their scenes together and finally fighting together is part of the fun to me, so.... yeah, Im team She Hulk. (not to mention that the Avengers are seriously lacking female members, so...) Wish we had Spiderwoman too, but oh well....

@gambgel - same. She hulk as a potential avenger gets me the most excited. A smart and yappy and sexy heavy hitter is a nice break from the typical masculine heavy hitter role

@gambgel - same. I think the way she responds to the world around her makes her a good candidate for lead character. Everything's gonna be new to the viewer, so having a stand-in character for the audience experiencing the same thing could work well

@Vigor - THANK YOU.

Im honestly tired of Thors, Star Lords and co.

Give me Scarlet Witch, SheHulk, Wasp, Young Avengers, X-Men and co.

I mean, if it takes someone of RDJ's caliber to give us a proper Dr. Doom, I guess we just have to go with it.

@JacobsLadder - That statement is exactly why he was cast.

V - 3/1/2025, 9:06 AM
In all seriousness these look pretty whack! Doom looks cool, hope they have a more imposing figure in the suit and just have Downey voice him and be there for face shots. Would be cool to have him be like 6'2'
JacobsLadder
JacobsLadder - 3/1/2025, 9:48 AM
@V - absolutely. Dr. Doom can't be 5'7" I'd go 6'4" at least. he needs to be menacing, mentally and physically.

@V - how does this look wack!!

V - 3/1/2025, 10:00 AM
@JacobsLadder - hope that would be the case but no way they pay big bucks for Downey and not make him work. Probably put him on some lifts and maybe make 5'11'

@Iports - honestly most are decent but the YA shot seems like really bad photoshop

everything that has come out about this movie just keeps getting worse and now we see these concepts that include some of the worst characters from phrase 4, young avengers, Quil and a gay vision, she-tron, damn looks woke as sh1t.

@harryba11zack - What did you expect? the big Avengers events not including all the new characters? wtf

you dont really know the MCU then. Thats the logical step and thats the point of introducing new characters, to see them teaming up with the A-league on the event movies.
harryba11zack
harryba11zack - 3/1/2025, 9:16 AM
@gambgel - u missing the point my son, u see, the problem here is that the "new characters" needed to be likeable enough for the audience to wanna continue to sea them again, I dont know if you seen the reaction from phase 4 but this is something that the MCU has failed to do.
gambgel
gambgel - 3/1/2025, 9:22 AM
@harryba11zack - You are just a hater, obviously.

SheHulk and Ms. Marvel WERE likeable characters and both good actress. If you didnt connect with -the characters- sorry, dude.

Im not talking about the quality of the show, Im talking about the characters/actresses, and they nicely cast. People are just too obssesed with RottenTomatoes and all the hate online. F*** them imo. Im here for the characters.

@harryba11zack - like i said in another article, the Russos are about to make people like characters they never thought they would

And if you Zack are disliking them simply for them being gay, melaninated, or for carrying boobs.. then your opinion is null and void. My humble opinion.

@Vigor - "The Russos are about to make people like characters they never thought they would"

Yeah, that scene where Tony's arguing with Cap and just randomly points at Captain Marvel and says "she's great by the way" and having Thor tell us he likes her really changed our perception of that character.

@Vigor - "the Russos are about to make people like characters they never thought they would"
incorrect, the Russos are back as the directos, it will be McFeely and Christopher Markus's job to make them likable. People seem to forget twhat writing are responsible for.

Theres nohing humble about glazing over people's crituqes and just crying the usual isms at them.

" if you Zack are disliking them simply for them being gay, melaninated, or for carrying boobs".............. the phuck does that even mean? I like boobs, especially big ones.

Does this person even work at Marvel? I know Andy Park does and is a concept artist for them. Nostalgia bait is such a cheap tactic

I’m extremely surprised these were posted. Other than Doom, I wonder if these concept images are now no longer applicable to the movie.

It seems that Doom and Black Panther live in a medieval universe. Maybe Magneto is also the King of Genosha and the Hulk's Kingdom is dominated by the Maestro.
Together they destroy other universes.
gambgel
gambgel - 3/1/2025, 9:33 AM
@Repian - the medieval setting of many of these arts sound really promising and would be a first for the Avengers movies. Hope this ends happening in the movie. It would make Doomsday so different from Infinity and Endgame, imo.

Quill and Vision being buddies looks fun. But also, is that a medieval setting? Would be cool if Battleworld has a certain team going, while Doom is God Emperoring about
