[dropcap size=small]W[/dropcap]ith the Fantastic Four movie release today, we look at Dr. Doom, the villain in the movie. Played by Toby Kebbell, Victor von Doom does not have a huge spot in the movie’s latest trailer, but he looks…well awful.
You see his face scarred and charred after what appears to be him falling on his trip through an inter-dimensional trip. But just like in the first Fantastic Four movie, Doom has his green cape and hood and Joining him on this trip was Sue Storm (Kate Mara), Dr. Reed Richards (Miles Teller), Ben Grimm AKA The Thing (Jamie Bell) and Johnny Storm AKA The Human Torch (Michael B. Jordan). All the characters encounter a green substance that ultimately give them their powers.
When Doom gets back to Earth and shows off his powers, it shows his powers being used on an endless amount of land being lifted by force powers that create a huge pit and the ‘Fantastic Four’ see the aftermath. He also has super-sonic like powers that could do a lot of damage, like splitting someone’s head open! Doom is also seen bursting a boulder open that is thrown at him. The previous Doctor Doom, played by Julian McMahon, had only electrical powers, which tells us that this Doctor Doom is a lot stronger than the one portrayed in the previous movies. As Mr. Fantastic said, “He’s stronger than any of us!”
From what is seen in the trailer, Dr. Doom’s plans to re-create the Earth in his own vision by using an inter-dimensional vortex to suck parts of the Earth into it, although it’s unclear to what all of his plan consists of bringing in “My world.” Even Kebbell said that “Doom is the ultimate bad guy.” in an interview with CinemaBlend.
In terms of future Fantastic Four movies, Fantastic Four 2 already has a release date for June 9, 2017! There’s a rumor that X-Men Director Bryan Singer could possibly take over production for Fantastic Four 2 to help make a potential crossover movie featuring ‘The Fantastic Four’ and ‘The X-Men.’ Singer has confirmed that there are discussions on this topic. We will just have to wait and see what happens!
