Robert Downey Jr. Shares Father's Day Artwork Featuring Doctor Doom

Avengers: Doomsday star Robert Downey Jr. has posted artwork showing Doctor Doom as a dad for this year's father's day.

Robert Downey Jr. shared artwork on his Instagram account portraying Doctor Doom as a father figure for Father's Day. The image depicts a child happily holding Doctor Doom's hand while flying kites together, with Avengers and Fantastic Four symbols crossed out on the kites. The caption 'I love doom Dad' is believed to be written by Doom's child.

This playful nod to Father's Day also connects to a prevalent fan theory regarding Doctor Doom's backstory in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, potentially shedding light on why Doom turns into an antagonist. Fans speculate that Doom may have a tragic past where his family was inadvertently erased from existence due to the Avengers' actions involving the Infinity Stones.

While Marvel has kept details about Avengers: Doomsday under wraps, this artwork has sparked discussions among fans, hinting that Doctor Doom may have had a child at some point.
