It depends on what storyline they're actually doing. If they're doing the 2015 Secret Wars, it's Victor (God Emperor Doom). If it's Earth 11029, it's Stark as Doom.

If it's the Beyonder stuff, who knows? Either could work. The Beyonder could see Tony in everyone's minds when he pulls everyone to Battleworld but because he's dead in Earth 616 the Beyonder could pull him from Earth 11029 instead.

I think they should pivot to Earth 8675309, wherein he plays Tony’s long lost brother, Leon Stork, who was hidden from his father at birth to protect him from the Emperor.

If they stick to the comics, we might not even see that much of RDJ - it will mostly be voice acting. Depends on how they plan to do it.

This Doom will be connected to Stark somehow.

That was my first thought as well.  There's no reason you'd see his face, unless it's included as part of his origin in the movie.

I think we romanticize the abilities of many comic book writers who are writing for "us" over a broader audience. 

Even Deadpool 3 just ridiculed the fans clamoring for a "short" Wolverine.  It looks ridiculous on screen.

If the movie is set in the same universe, how they can justify that Doom and Tony Stark are the same person? Twins separated at birth?

Endgame opened the door for this.  Once you introduce time travel and alternate universes the possibilities are absolutely infinite and only limited by imagination.  That's why I don't rank Endgame as highly as many other of the best MCU films despite how generally excellent it is; time travel open up FAR too many questions than any sane screenwriter can possibly answer.  There are literally an infinite number of answers to your question, and we'll see which one they land on.  To point out the most obvious answer to your question--just because it's set in MCU-616 doesn't mean that Tony "Doctor Doom" Stark is from 616.

I rather enjoy the general idea since Doom and Stark are almost exactly the same person aside from Doom's ties to magic.  They both wear armor, and they both use extreme technology as their power.  That's why it made complete sense when Bendis did his Infamous Iron Man arc where Doom took over Stark's Iron Man tech after Stark briefly died in the comics.

An entire audience in Deadpool laughed out loud at the absurdity of the visual.  We are a niche group as avid comic book collectors.  And even there are some of us that look at that as an absurdity.  There are quite a few "comic book standards or ideas" that would not translate well and in my opinion in the case of an entire audience in a packed movie theater, the prospect of that idea was one of them.

Guess body shaming men is still  funny in our society.  (shrug) Spiderman is short.  No one ever really thinks that's absurd.

lol You really think this is about body shaming?  Okay, fine, it's about body shaming.  Whatever, Cool. 

He looked absurdly ridiculous to the likes of which I am still laughing at in my mind as I think about the visual while writing this post.

Leon and Tony Stork.  Is this from the Spider-Ham universe?
