As if being replaced by a 15-year-old girl is not enough, a new report now claims that super-villain Dr. Doom is going to take Tony Stark's famous red metal suit in "Iron Man 4."
Although Marvel Studios have already steered away from basing the films to their actual Marvel Comics a long time ago, there is still a high chance Marvel Studios may take tips for the "Iron Man 4" storyline.

If that's the case, then Marvel illustrator, Alex Maleev, just confirmed that "Iron Man 4" will have a new character that will wear the suit, Christian Times reports.
This time time though, unlike the other Avengers, this character is a villain - Dr. Doom! And the Iron Man suit was customized to fit this supervillain which the Marvel illustrator shared on Twitter.

Is this another hint that Robert Downey Jr. may reprise his role in "Iron Man 4" but Tony Stark will not be the main focal point of "Iron Man 4"?
Not only that, it was previously reported that Robert Downey Jr. may already be done portraying Tony Stark a.k.a Iron Man, and now it is realized that he may be too old to play his iconic character if "Iron Man 4" will be pursued.
At the age of 51, Robert Downey Jr. is still very active, but since the filming for "Iron Man 4" is still unknown, his age is ticking and he might be too old to play a superhero.
Marvel Studios is known for stirring things up to gain more publicity. So is this also the same case that they're doing with "Iron Man 4?" Let us know what you think in the comment section below!
