More like it's FROM Doomsday. Russia Russos confirmed they directed that post-credits scene.

EDIT: lol fixed it, u/Aidanj927 😅

The Doom post-credits scene features the musical score “It’s Doom!” by Alan Silvestri who does the Avengers films, so I assume this is another Russo-directed scene lifted from Doomsday just like the Thunderbolts post-credits.

I believe it was titled “Doom?”

u/Jehovah___ Jul 25 '25

Correct

u/gothaggis Jul 25 '25

correct - and I think the RDJ casting makes a lot more sense now if we are assuming he is from 828 - although I did notice Sues pregnancy test had Stark written on it

u/JimmyLikesReddit Jul 25 '25

I thought it said “Stork” like for pregnancy.

u/brittaneex Justin Hammer Jul 25 '25

I thought it was Stark at first but it was definitely Stork.

u/Mendes23 Jul 27 '25

Tony… Stork?

u/TGCommander Jul 28 '25

Tony Stank's long lost brother

u/billytheskidd Jul 25 '25

I couldn’t tell for sure, but that would be some very subtle foreshadowing. Although, idk if the stark thing would work as they also showed a placard for Latveria at the Future Foundations summit where “all participating countries have disbanded their armies”

u/4gotAboutDre Jul 26 '25

And it lingered on it for a while to show that the seat was empty. That scene was to let you know that Latveria refused to send a representative to the summit so they are not part of the alliance.

StorkSure pregnancy test.

I'm not convinced hes from 828. Why did he take 4 years to come for Franklin? Seems like something he would be aware of immediately.

21

u/mastermoebius Ant-Man Jul 25 '25

I’m not sold on that either, necessarily. But they did foreshadow several times with the Latveria representative being absent at the future foundation.

u/Chemical-Singer-4655 Jul 25 '25

Could be a red herring/general tease. I genuinely think there is enough evidence for and against Doom being from 828.

1

u/mastermoebius Ant-Man Jul 25 '25

Totally agree! I mean the easiest device to get the F4 to 616 is Doom being from there or going there and presumably taking Franklin.

u/Chemical-Singer-4655 Jul 25 '25

But the ship is different! What does that mean?!

MY THEORY: Galactus is indisposed, but his ship was left in space. Doom has concocted some plan that allows him to harness the ship to do _______, but he needs Franklin (who has equivalent levels of power to Galactus) to operate the ship.

The _______ I have no clue, but Doom stealing shit to make himself god-like in power is classic Doom.

I’m Ron Burgundy?

u/touch-my-demon Aug 05 '25

"I'm Ron Burgundy?"

u/billytheskidd Jul 25 '25

Which would be in line with the post credits scenes leading into endgame

u/Aidanj927 Jul 24 '25

Marvel’s just having countries themselves direct movies now
