Just last year, there were rumors that Henry Cavill could be playing Doctor Doom in Marvel’s Fantastic Four. While the news came as a surprise, fans were excited to see the star take on his new role. Now, mere days after Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s Deadpool 3 trailer was released, there seem to be a few indicators that point to the 40-year-old’s new character making an appearance in the highly anticipated film.

Doctor Doom in Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool 3 trailer

A few days ago, the Marvel community got the one thing that they had been waiting for: the Deadpool 3 trailer. While everyone was losing their minds over seeing the TVA’s Minute Men and Wolverine’s shadow, others noticed a masked soldier who looked like the supervillain, Dr. Victor Von Doom. Although they might be right, neither the studio nor the stars have confirmed whether the character will be in the film.

That may have been enough to send fans into a frenzy. However, some eagle-eyed viewers also spotted another hint that Henry Cavill’s Doctor Doom could be in the upcoming film. It was a Secret Wars comic that was seen towards the end of the trailer, right when an injured Merc with a Mouth teamed up with Wolverine. The sighting of the comic sparked madness as the villain had a prominent role in it.

While the world has been waiting for a Doctor Doom debut in the MCU for years, some fans were still wondering how the two worlds of the Fantastic Four and Deadpool could connect.

The connection between Doctor Doom and Deadpool 3

In the recent Deadpool 3 trailer, there were a lot of hints that Henry Cavill’s Doctor Doom could be making a debut in the film. While some fans seemed to be excited, others were unsure how Ryan Reynolds’ character and the supervillain would fit together. With Deadpool and Wolverine hopping around the multiverse, it should not be surprising that the film might be bringing the villain’s Battle World to life.

Apart from that, the trailer also showed Reynolds being pulled into the Void, which was rather similar to Doctor Doom’s world. With the 47-year-old heading on an adventure across the multiverse, there is a huge possibility that the upcoming film could end up changing a lot of storylines or even setting a few things right.
