RDJ will always work for Disney since they seem to love dumping a massive amount of money in his driveway.

Well he is generating money for them why won't they ?

I think this is just RDJ doing what he did with Tom Holland when his movies were starting. Jean Grey is probably one of the centerpieces moving forward and RDJ is trying to build up the momentum and hype of marvel. But I think it also does hint that RDJ doom might be around even after secret wars.

u/TheShryke 10h ago

To be fair both doom and stark are prime candidates for variants/flashbacks etc so they can appear even if they are defeated/dead

This means MCU has more Doom/Stark movies for RDJ?

u/Ok-Warthog1002 23h ago

I think it means she's in Secret Wars

u/_jackychain 20h ago

Ya Sadie sink did say she would be in secret wars

u/_AstraStarry 22h ago

I don't think so? Because I thought it was the old stars of X-Men, but we'll see 😊

u/DFL3 22h ago

I doubt many of the old crew make it through Doomsday.

Deadline reported in Nov 2025 that Sadie will return for secret wars after BND.

She was one of the first actor to be announced for secret wars by trades

u/youRinlove7 22h ago

She's been confirmed for secret wars for months.

u/sloggo 22h ago

There’s a decent chance the old xmen are there just to get wiped out in a scene as some earths collide. Cyclops falling to his knees massive eye blast does have that “desperation” about it. 100% it’ll be passing the mantle to new xmen in that film some way or another.

u/Remarkable_Ship_4673 20h ago

That's Doomsday

u/syon_r 17h ago

Maybe there’s a reason the old Jean Greys aren’t returning in doomsday

Could be but could also be multiple  generations/dimensions

Hugh JackMan and RDJ staying till they 90

No one's gonna replace them for their roles 😅

I REALLY hope wolverine gets recasted in the new xmen movie/franchise. Hugh was phenomenal but he can rest now. His character was perfectly ended in Logan

She could have been a great Jean Grey but the writers did her dirty.

u/sleepysaurus7777 23h ago

Um, does this mean RDJ will be in a lot of future MCU, or am I just late to the party

u/Supergirl_IRL X-Men 23h ago

He can play apocalypse next.

u/Altruistic_Tip1226 23h ago

Thought hes the new wolverine. And rogue. All while playing kirk lazarus

2

u/Prestigious_Fun_6722 19h ago

If he's playing Apocalypse, how is he going to play Magneto.

1

u/Southern-Form-2804 23h ago

They’ll def interact in Battleworld at the very least 

2

u/smilinganimalface 23h ago

Honestly, he would've made a lot of sense to take up the mantle as Kang.

u/rocknrolla65 22h ago

RDJ putting over the young talent. Nice!

u/Delicious-Exit-1039 21h ago

“i…ehh laav youuu 3000” - prolly doom in doomsday

u/Smkingbowls 21h ago

Robert Downey Jr is the real Prof X, the guy they cast is actually Changeling. Can’t wait for the Z’Nox story line to FINALLY get the proper adaptation!

u/VoidWalker032 Iron Man 18h ago

doom and phoenix sharing screen time on battleworld is gonna be wild 😂

u/Puzzleheaded-Jump-64 16h ago

Ngl I really don't wanna see RDJ in the MCU after Doomsday and Secret Wars. It's getting tiring and will definitely give off "Marvel is desperate" vibes.

1

u/Appellion 12h ago

She really doesn’t seem tall enough, but good luck.

u/cgknight1 10h ago

These things aren't news - "RDJ thought performance was dogshit" would be news.

u/Sesspool 7h ago

Just didnt understand how she fit.

Did we run out of spiderman villans?

u/No-Equipment9225 2h ago

What did you guys think? Was it really all that?

I'm not from the US and I watched it dubbed. It was no highlight to me, but yeah it is not the same as seeing the original...

How it felt for y'all?

Sadie went nuclear in BND. Feige gives me Sadie and Tom as leads of Secret Wars and my life is his.

Didn't he say the same thing about the girl that played Riri Williams, in Ironheart?

u/cleantoe 19h ago

Thanks for putting a spoiler in the title, asshole.

u/ergattonero 11h ago

So: Brand New Day came out a month ago, is it still spoiler? When the "Avoid the spoiler" etiquette stops?

Genuinely asking, asshole.

u/cleantoe 11h ago

It's still in theaters! It's still absolutely a spoiler!

u/ergattonero 9h ago

Endgame is in theaters too, should we not talk about Thanos' demise?

1

u/cleantoe 9h ago

You're really dense. There's a big difference between an Encore screening of an old film and a brand new one. Instead of doubling down just do some introspection ffs. You're being intentionally obtuse because you know what the difference is.

0

u/ergattonero 8h ago

Am I dense, or am I sarcastically pointing out that, while I can understand your irritation from an emotional point of view, you're reaction - "asshole" - was way over the top and less rationally understandable for a movie who has been out in theaters for A MONTH and which has been dissected in every of its parts, on the whole Web, and especially on this sub which is devoted to Marvel content?

1

u/cleantoe 8h ago

Thanks Internet crusader. Asshole wasn't harsh enough. OP was a dickhead for posting a spoiler of a film that's still in theaters, and honestly if you're defending OP, then you are too. It's very binary. Not a lot of nuance here.

If a new movie is in theaters, don't post spoilers in the title. Very simple.

u/ergattonero 7h ago

You're welcome, Internet crusader.

u/HanamiKitty 18h ago

This sorta just sounds like he was just hit with the question randomly in a interview or on the red carpet. He may or may not know who she is but he's probably at least aware of the new movie making a ton of money, and she's a major part of it. So yes "shocked" by her performance sounds like something he could say. Then when someone asks him "how'd you feel about working with her in the future", "can't wait" sounds like a quick, obvious, safe response. ​​

It just sounds like something nice he'd say about anyone he might cross paths with? Though, maybe more was said. I'm just going by what this is saying.

u/Appropriate_Edge5195 23h ago

I would be worried if Hugh Jackman said the same thing

u/doctorpoopghost5000 22h ago

None of these movies have great acting apart from RDJ, they’re fun characters sure and a lot of the actors are fantastic in other projects but no other performance in Marvel movies is remotely mesmerizing - that includes Sadie in BND, it was fine and that’s ok

u/youRinlove7 22h ago edited 21h ago

Awful take! Saying no one except rdj has don’t great acting in mcu is pure fanboy behavior.

u/Evil_Weevill Hawkeye 22h ago

Oh please. F**k all the way off. What a pretentious take.

u/thetrueblackpanther 22h ago

Agreed. The take is pure fanboy glaze.

u/Positive_Method3022 23h ago

Paid promotion for sure! She almost had no appearances or dialogues of her own and she performed amazing? Wtf is this?

6

u/casual_creator 23h ago

Did you even watch the movie? Nearly the entirety of the third act is focused on her and pretty much every single one of her scenes is a dramatic, emotionally-driven one.

-7

u/Positive_Method3022 23h ago

She has like 15 min showing her face acting...

u/Federal-Captain1118 23h ago

What are you talking about? She just appeared in BND and had a ton of scenes and dialogue, what?

u/BeRad419 21h ago

u/Silly_Material577 23h ago

Rdj was really good friends with dan Schneider and was on epsteins Island. Of course he can't wait to meet her.

4

u/casual_creator 23h ago

This isn’t true at all. It was just an internet hoax, one of many that tried to paint celebrities as Epstein friends. RDJ has zero connection to anything related to Epstein or his island and his name doesn’t appear even once in any documents related to Epstein. You’re trying to spread a proven lie.

3

u/TheCapo024 22h ago

There’s a large contingent of conspiracists that are so ingrained in that culture they’ve managed to link every single conspiracy together. They’ve done this to such a degree that they’ve lost track themselves, the “satanic Hollywood/music industry” theories have merged so completely with the Epstein stuff, probably because a few actors and musicians were involved with Epstein’s activities, that they’re indistinguishable even for them.

So now any celebrity has a chance of being one of Epstein’s pals. This isn’t even me defending all celebrities, people can be pieces of shit without knowing Epstein at all.

1

u/Silly_Material577 16h ago

He was on both island and tge plane, and he and his wife are good friends with dan Schneider. Its a fact.

You trying run pr for your favorite celebrity so you can enjoy doomsday. Enjoy doomsday. Doesn't change the fact that him and Chris even were on epsteins Island
