Chris Evans’ Captain America Faces Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom In New Avengers: Doomsday Art

New artwork from Avengers: Doomsday gives fans a glimpse of the first encounter between Captain America (Steve Rogers) and Doctor Doom in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The first teaser trailer for the upcoming Avengers movie also confirmed long-standing rumors: Chris Evans will return as Captain America. Interestingly, Steve Rogers now has a child with Peggy Carter.

Beyond a short preview, Marvel hasn’t shared how Chris Evans will return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Avengers: Doomsday. However, it’s expected that Steve Rogers and Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom will share the screen, and likely even fight each other, in the movie. Now, fans have created artwork imagining this potential showdown.

The Instagram account @welove__marvel posted a visualization of a potential fight between Captain America and Doctor Doom in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie.

Fan art depicts Chris Evans as Captain America, seen from behind in his full costume and holding his shield. Above him floats Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom. The artwork hints at Doctor Doom’s magical abilities, which will be a key part of his character in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie. Doctor Doom is portrayed as incredibly skilled in both advanced science and powerful magic.

What Role Should Chris Evans’ Captain America Play In Avengers: Doomsday?

Though Chris Evans’ Captain America was a founding member of the original Avengers, he probably won’t appear in the upcoming new Avengers teams. The movie Thunderbolts is establishing a new group of heroes, with Bucky Barnes (Captain America’s friend) as a leader. The main Avengers team in future films will likely be led by Sam Wilson, the new Captain America, focusing on his story.

Chris Evans’ Captain America remains a crucial character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and his eventual return should be as a significant player. Because Steve chose to live out his life in the past with Peggy Carter and started a family, he may have unintentionally altered the timeline, potentially causing a dangerous ripple effect that contributes to the multiverse falling apart.

Chris Evans & Robert Downey Jr. Could Also Fight Doctor Doom Together In Avengers: Doomsday

There are two interesting ways Chris Evans’ Captain America could face off against Doctor Doom. In one scenario, Doom believes he’s actually saving the multiverse and sees Captain America as a threat because of his actions with time travel. Alternatively, Robert Downey Jr.’s version of Doctor Doom could be a straightforward villain from the beginning, and Captain America would have to stop him from destroying the multiverse.

Even if the stories of Captain America and Doctor Doom don’t align, there’s a way for Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr. to share the screen again. Marvel could bring in a different version of Iron Man – played by Downey – from another universe. It would be a great chance to do so! Another possibility is that the original Tony Stark could help Captain America by traveling through time in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie.
