Could the Fantastic 4 and Doom have a crossover?

At the moment, there are no official announcements about a crossover involving the cast of “Fantastic Four: First Steps” and Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. However, it is believed that it could become a reality at some point.

Marvel Studios is known for planning interconnected stories and crossovers within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), so it is possible that the “Fantastic Four” characters will interact with others in the future.

The next Avengers movie will be Doomsday, which will have the Iron Man actor in the role of the villain. This will be the first time that Robert steps away from his hero role to play the new nemesis, which would be the replacement for Kang.
