At San Diego Comic-Con yesterday (July 27), it was revealed that Robert Downey Jr. will be making his return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in an upcoming film, Avengers: Doomsday. He appeared onstage at the event, ripping off his mask and announcing his role as Doctor Doom. Kevin Feige, the president of Marvel Studios, also took the opportunity to tease a second film titled Avengers: Secret Wars.

For obvious reasons, fans went nuts, and the moment has since gone viral on social media. Of course, MCU stans can't wait to see RDJ onscreen. Unfortunately, they also can't help but recall Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. The film was announced at Comic-Con a couple of years back and was set to feature Jonathan Majors as Kang.

Since then, however, Majors has been found guilty of assaulting his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari. As a result, Marvel cut ties with the actor in December. Now, Majors is trending on X as users react to the announcement, and consider how he must be feeling right now. Many are also looking back on the time Majors told Lifehacker Australia that he'd love to share the big screen with RDJ.

"I would love to be across from him on screen to see how our philosophies, acting-wise and character-wise, just personally, match up," he said in 2023. "You know, I find him to be such a fascinating artist, which is why Iron Man is so fascinating. His portrayal of Iron Man is so fascinating and he represents a very clear worldview and energy of the Avengers. And I think Kang represents a different era."
