A mystery Doctor Doom project is seemingly in the works at Marvel, and Howard Stern appears to be involved. The Fantastic Four's iconic villain Victor von Doom has been at the forefront of Marvel fans' minds since Disney acquired 20th Century. This gave Marvel Studios the ability to begin using characters Fox previously had access to, such as Doctor Doom — who appeared in three live-action Fantastic Four movies between 2005 and 2015. The studio also had plans to give the Marvel villain a solo movie, but Noah Hawley's Doctor Doom film was essentially canceled after it moved to Disney.
With Marvel Studios confirming that a new Fantastic Four movie is in development, it should only be a matter of time before Doctor Doom joins the Marvel Cinematic Universe. There has been great speculation he could debut before then, such as in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, to set him up as a threat that looms over the entire MCU. Many have also wondered if Doctor Doom could star in his own movie or Disney+ series to fully flesh out the iconic foe. So far, Marvel has not revealed any information about their plans for Victor von Doom, though.
