With theFantastic Fourset for their long - wait MCU debut in Phase 6 , the debut ofDoctor Doomto the continuity is inevitable , but he wo n’t necessarily dwarf Kang the Conqueror . Doctor Doom is by far one of the most life-threatening supervillains in the Marvel Comics existence , so his MCU iteration could easily become a clearer danger to the bomber than Kang the Conqueror , who will supplant Thanos as the MCU ’s next saga antagonist . Thanks to Willem Dafoe ’s role as the Green Goblin inSpider - Man : No Way Home , however , Marvel Studios has testify that they can introduce the comedian ’ baneful villains without stealing the big H of their saga villain , which is the thoroughgoing setup for anMCU Doctor Doom .

The MCU has adapted legion Marvel Comics supervillains to the bounteous screen , but the overarching adversary of the first three phase ( now know as The Infinity Saga ) is Thanos , whose pursuit for the Infinity Stones drove the saga ’s ultimate battle . The next three MCU stage are now called The Multiverse Saga , and Kang the Conqueror will be its equivalent to Thanos .

TheMarvel villain Doctor Doomis one of the most brilliant brain in the mainstream continuity as well as one of its most powerful sorcerers . While the Green Goblin is certainly not the most powerful Marvel Comics baddie , his sheer capacity for cruelty and his uncanny ability to give away the liquor of his opposition as well as murder them make him by far one of Marvel ’s most dangerous antagonist . With this in mind , the Green Goblin and Doctor Doom ought to be heavy MCU threat than Thanos or Kang ( for dissimilar reason ) , but Osborn’sNo Way Homeappearance kept the shell of his actions comparatively personal , and this approach could be put on to the MCU ’s Doctor Doom inFantastic Four(or a sequel ) , at least until Kang ’s threat ends , grant Doom to become more prominent in Phase 7 .

Doctor Doom is one of Marvel ’s most iconic scoundrel and his rivalry withReed Richards of the Fantastic Fouris as famed , so it appear to be only a matter of time before he infix the MCU . While Doom might not be the villain of the firstFantastic Fourmovie , a continuation teaser or simple acknowledgement of his existence is likely . Should Doctor Doom appear in Phase 6 , however , the MCU will in all likelihood give him a similar role toNo Way Home’sGreen Goblin , showcasing just how dangerous he is while preventing him from turn over the same level as Kang for the prison term being . InNo Way Home , the Green Goblin murder Aunt May and closely drove Spider - Man to abandon his ideals and commit murder , in add-on to near destroying the entire multiverse itself with a well - placed pumpkin bomb . Nevertheless , the Green Goblin was cured of his darker half , terminate his menace .

Norman Osborn can returnto the MCU , thanks to the multiverse make anything potential , but as it endure , he ’s already for good damaged Tom Holland ’s Spider - Man in his unmarried appearing and proven to be a multiversal scourge . Doctor Doom can have the same gist on Reed Richards in Phase 6 , demonstrating his intellectual superiority and astounding wizardly ability , but not quite overshadow Kang until the Multiverse Saga is over .
