Tony Starks Death is Part of Doctor Doom's story in Avengers Doomsday

Tony Stark's death in Avengers Endgame will influence who Doctor Doom is, according to a recent interview with Joe and Anthony Russo, the directors of the upcoming Avengers Doomsday and Avengers Secret Wars, published by The Times.

“Yes, the MCU has got quite large, that’s for sure,” Anthony admits. “I mean, frankly, we struggle with that same issue. But part of the reason Joe and I decided to go back is exactly what you’re talking about. There needs to be more of a central narrative. That was something we were very specific about when we worked with Marvel [before]. We would like to bring the focused narrative back.”

Well, if anyone can save Marvel, it will be these two. After all, they were the ones who made it billions in the first place. I ask Pratt: can these men fix the MCU? “Sure,” he says. “They know that it’s the mundane, human brokenness of characters that drives stories and makes the Avengers great. They have this ability to find the humanity.”

Back to the Russos: how will they bring back Robert Downey Jr as the villainous Doctor Doom, given he died as a different character, Iron Man, in Avengers: Endgame? “We can’t explain that as it’s part of the story,” Anthony says with a grin. “But there’s nobody else in the world who could play this character the way he’s about to.” SOURCE
