The weekend has brought a ton of news for superhero movie fans, but without a doubt, the most notable has been the return of Robert Downey Jr. to Marvel Studios as Doctor Doom. This announcement has left fans perplexed, and even some actors and actresses who still don’t fully understand this signing.
One of the most surprised has been Gwyneth Paltrowwho played Pepper Potts in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and knows Downey Jr. perfectly. Through a post by the actor on his account Instagramthe actress expressed her confusion about the recent Oscar winner’s new role in the company’s new era.
“I don’t get it, you’re a bad guy now?” said Paltrow, who was probably confused by this announcement since, having been away from Marvel Studios for a while, she would not be aware of all the changes that have occurred in the company over the last year.
Clearly Paltrow isn’t the only one who is baffled by this decision; many fans have expressed disappointment, not because of Downey Jr.’s acting ability, which is unquestionable, but because of the choice of a character who had already made history at the studio. Avengers: Doomsday
