Anthony Mackie welcomes Robert Downey Jr.'s MCU return as Doctor Doom
Robert Downey Jr.'s return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been confirmed, but not as Iron Man—this time, he's stepping into the villainous role of Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday. The shocking twist has sparked major buzz, and co-star Anthony Mackie has now weighed in. Mackie, who now leads the Avengers as Captain America following the events of Captain America: Brave New World, addressed the casting in a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight. He described Downey Jr. as "an integral part" of his early Marvel career and expressed excitement about working with him again. "You know, the fun part is Robert Downey Jr. was such an integral part of the beginning of my career at Marvel," Mackie said. "It's great to have him back and continue the legacy he built with the MCU." Mackie and Downey Jr. previously shared screen time in films like Avengers: Age of Ultron and Captain America: Civil War, though their characters rarely interacted directly. Now, with Mackie's Captain America assembling a new Avengers team, the stakes are higher than ever—especially as they face off against Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom. Downey's cryptic 'New mask, same task' line during his villain reveal hints at a thematic continuation of Iron Man's legacy through Doom. The movie is set to release on December 18, 2026, and marks the first time Downey Jr. and Mackie will reunite onscreen since Avengers: Endgame. As anticipation builds for Avengers: Doomsday, fans are eager to see how this new chapter reshapes the MCU's power dynamics.

'Fantastic Four: First Steps' earns $57 million opening day, ranking second-highest debut of 2025
Fantastic Four: First Steps opened to an estimated $57 million in the United States on Friday, including preview screenings, making it the second-largest opening day of the year. The figure puts the Marvel Cinematic Universe entry just behind A Minecraft Movie, which earned $57.11 million on its opening day. According to Disney, the film, which plays in IMAX and other premium formats, slightly outperformed DC Studios' Superman, which opened to $56.1 million earlier this month. Industry analysts suggest it may be a close competition as Fantastic Four aims to surpass Superman's projected $125 million three-day debut. Directed by Matt Shakman, the film introduces new MCU cast members Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. The narrative functions largely outside the core MCU storylines, offering a standalone experience for audiences. Early feedback has been favourable, with CinemaScore reporting an 'A-' rating from opening-day ticket buyers. The $200 million production is Marvel's third release of the year. Its predecessors, Captain America: Brave New World and Thunderbolts, opened with $88.5 million and $76 million, respectively, but did not achieve box office profitability. Fantastic Four: First Steps represents Marvel's latest effort to revive legacy IPs acquired through Disney's 2019 purchase of 20th Century Fox. The studio is expected to pause superhero film releases until Avengers: Doomsday in December 2026, following Sony's release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day in mid-2026.

Superhero films ignite rivalry among Marvel and DC comic fans
SAN DIEGO: Comic fans are embracing the latest showdown between Marvel and DC as their superhero films 'Fantastic Four' and 'Superman' compete for box office dominance, reigniting a rivalry spanning over eight decades. Whether it's the thrill of seeing the comic book superhero The Thing shout 'It's clobbering time!' before throwing a punch or watching Superman and his faithful pup Krypto save the day, fans are heading to movie theaters to support their favorite films. 'Well, clearly I'm a Marvel fan,' Danielle Stroski, who was dressed as the shapeshifter character named Mystique from Marvel's X-Men comics, at the San Diego Comic-Con. 'But I have a little white dog at home, so I love me some 'Superman' as well. And I know the little white dog is stealing the show for 'Superman,' so it's going to be close. But I got to go Marvel,' she added. The 42-year-old from California predicted 'Fantastic Four' would outperform 'Superman' at the box office. DC fan Lito Loza, dressed as Superboy, voiced his support for 'Superman.' 'I've already seen 'Superman' three times, and I'm very, very happy with what James Gunn did with it. It makes me feel hopeful,' he said, referring to the director. The filmmakers, meanwhile, encourage fans to support both movies. 'I'm a huge Superman fan. I'm a huge James Gunn fan. I'm thrilled that both of us are coming out this month,' director Matt Shakman of 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' told Reuters at the London premiere. 'Project Hail Mary' sends Ryan Gosling, and Comic-Con, into outer space 'I think we share a lot of similar optimism in our tone and our feeling in the worlds that we're building. And there's room for 'Superman,' there's room for 'Fantastic Four.' I'm thrilled. Go see both,' he added. 'Superman' director Gunn, who directed the Marvel movie 'Guardians of the Galaxy', said in an interview in Los Angeles that he grew up reading both Marvel and DC comic books, appreciating their distinct tones. In theaters on July 11, 'Superman' introduced David Corenswet as the Man of Steel. The movie grossed around $173 million globally and $264 million domestically, according to Box Office Mojo. Warner Bros has heavily invested in 'Superman,' aiming to launch a new era at DC Studios under Gunn, named co-CEO, alongside producer Peter Safran. Upcoming projects include a Supergirl film slated for June 2026, a film based on the character Swamp Thing as well as TV shows for HBO Max. Disney said 'Fantastic Four,' which stars Pedro Pascal, opened with $24.4 million in ticket sales in the United States and Canada on Thursday night while Daniel Loria, senior vice president at Boxoffice predicts that 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' will open domestically at $115 million to $135 million. While sales are currently around $115 million to $125 million, he said there was an increase in ticket purchases over the last week that will likely bring sales to the $115 million to $135 million range.
