    The reason so many people want RDJ’s Doom to be a Stark variant is because the alternative is that Marvel, and by extension Disney, is in desperation mode. “Iron Man did well, Iron Man was played by RDJ, we want this movie to do well, we need to throw a dump truck full of money at RDJ again.”

    Furthermore, RDJ, as much as I enjoy his performances, always plays the same character in any movie that isn’t Oppenheimer. If this Dr Doom isn’t a Stark variant, it’s going to be weird at best and terrible at worst when he acts like Tony Stark.
