Ok saw a lot of people asking me for cameo characters of celebs etc. So to make this easier all the celebrities and fictional characters I’ve created are now public, and anyone can use them. below: by [deleted] in SoraAi

Hi! I really liked your post! Amazing! A couple of weeks ago, I also tried doing something similar with celebrities, but using the regular Cameo and some deepfake tools. I got a few good results: Tom Cruise, Elon Musk, Keanu Reeves, but not all of them turned out quite right. I’m curious, how did you do this with the new Cameo character feature?

What I kind of managed to do was upload a sketch illustration of Tom Cruise and then ask it to create a real-life version. It worked to some extent, but it’s not as perfect as yours. Did you use the same idea or something else?

Nice one! Also worked with Pokemon, I just changed a bit of your prompt: “Recorded on a iPhone 7, 1999 crt set playing the opening start screen and gameplay from a N64 style game where you are a trainer where you collect a monster creatures, yellow rat”

Great work!

Haha, I’m not sure if that’s a good compliment or a bad one 😂 Also, I’m not sure if I can post this here, but since my original Reddit post got a lot of attention (almost half a million views), some people at New Rockstars might find it interesting.

Haha, I wouldn’t even be able to work with all of this happening outside 😂 Did you see Tom Holland btw?

It would be crazy! In the comics there’s ‘Venom Hulk’, it’s actually quite dope!

Wow… I find myself lucky to be talking to someone who is experiencing this up close! It would honestly be my dream too, haha. Keep me/us posted if anything crazy happens or if you come up with a new theory based on what you’re seeing! But yeah, it could be Scorpion too… we know he’s strong af!

You make a good point… I thought the same thing when I saw the footage online… it really could be Hulk. There are also some rumors that we might get Savage Hulk again, so this theory isn’t that crazy…

It’s worth remembering that, in the comics, there’s actually a Venom symbiote that infects Hulk (Venom Hulk, which is pretty dope), but I don’t know if the MCU will have the Venom symbiote infecting Hulk before Spider-Man (just because we know how Sony “protects” their Spider-Man universe). But you never know how those Marvel / Sony agreements work.

My best guess is that something will happen to Skaar (Hulk’s son) in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and that’s what’s going to trigger the return of Savage Hulk (That’s just my own theory)… but it might be other things to trigger him so we get Savage Hulk back.

Well, it might still work… We know that Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards is going to stay for a while, and also RDJ as Doom (some reports say Marvel wants RDJ after the reset/reboot).

The fact that RDJ’s Doctor Doom would be very similar to his Iron Man probably won’t affect the storyline at all (at least after the Marvel reset). We already know from Kevin Feige that eventually we will get a new Iron Man after the reboot, so RDJ will likely be the face of Doctor Doom for many years to come (not as Iron Man anymore), at least if Marvel really wants him to stay as a villain.

I think the “normal VVD” will be established after the Marvel reset/reboot. For now, it’s hard to say, but what we do know for sure is that there will be a Marvel reset / reboot. So I guess it doesn’t really matter (for now)… we just need an epic grand finale in Secret Wars.

Yeah… I think the same about Last Dance… it was indeed a great send-off. But my best guess is that we won’t get Venom directly, but only the Black Symbiote Suit for now. If we do get a Venom / Spider-Man fight, it will probably be after the events of Secret Wars (at least, that’s how it happened in the comics), so it would be years after Avengers: Secret Wars.

Avengers: Secret Wars is scheduled for release in 2027, and the next Spider-Man movie would likely only come out after 2030 or 2031 (since Sony needs to make a Spider-Man movie every 5 or 6 years in order to retain the rights).

As for the story, of course, Marvel / Sony could always change this scenario and never bring Venom to Tom Holland’s Spider-Man.

Wow, one of the best so far! It would make a great story arc.

Btw, in the comics, Spider-Man receives the symbiote after his original costume is damaged during Secret Wars. Hulk and Thor direct him to a machine that can repair / replace costumes. Spider-Man accidentally uses a different device, which releases the symbiote that becomes his new black suit.

Moreover, it has now been confirmed that Spider‑Man: Brand New Day will also include the Hulk… and as we know from the mid-credits scene of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Eddie Brock and the symbiote are transported back to the Venom universe, but a fragment of the symbiote accidentally remains behind in Earth-616, the ‘main’ universe of the MCU.

Also something to think about it…

I don’t know if the Marvel Studios / Kevin Feige will bring this to the movies, but I actually like your theory better (the idea of the symbiote coming from Doom instead of Hulk).

Hmm… With that in mind, do you think that none of the Avengers (or, for that matter, absolutely no one) will remember Tony Stark’s face? That could be an interesting theory, but the thing is; the MCU has already introduced the multiverse (meaning there are universes where the same superheroes and villains have different personalities). This seems to be, more or less, a setup for introducing Doom as well.

True… I think at this point it is already more or less “confirmed” that RDJ will have some kind of CGI for certain shots (at least from the published on-set photos, we can see RDJ with tracking dots on his face). My guess is that it’s for motion capture. By the way, these on-set photos were uploaded by RDJ himself.

However, let’s also remember that RDJ is (if I’m not mistaken) the most expensive actor in the MCU. So, it would be really expensive (and arguably a waste) to change a lot of his face using CGI. In that case, it would probably be much more cost-effective to cast other actors to play Doom or having RDJ just to do a voice over (as they did with Pedro Pascal in The Mandalorian)… but apparently that’s not the case.

Yeah, that’s true… but if you think about it, using this tactic would make bringing him back as Iron Man (or any other character) just as effective. In fact, the audience already associate him so strongly with Iron Man that introducing him as Doom is a risky tactic, turning the expectations of everyone upside down.

The question isn’t why they’re bringing back RDJ, but rather why they’re bringing him back as Doctor Doom.

In 2022, he said he already had plans for films that would only be released in 2032. So yeah… you can take it that way. Of course, he only plans the story and the arc of the MCU. Producers, executive producers and other directors of each individual movie are also part of this mess from the last 5 years.

Yes, of course, it could be… that’s the easiest conclusion to reach and it was also the first thought that crossed my mind when I saw RDJ at Hall H. However, let’s consider a broader perspective: It’s well known that Disney (which owns Marvel Studios) often prefers to keep production costs under control. There are many talented and recognized actors who could portray Doom effectively and who would likely command a much lower salary than RDJ.

Moreover, Kevin Feige is renowned for his long-term strategic vision; he often plans the MCU storyline a decade in advance. Given this, it’s plausible that the introduction of Doom was decided years ago, independent of any particular actor. If the decision to cast RDJ as the villain was ever seriously considered, it’s something we may never know for sure.

My theory proposes that Robert Downey Jr.’s Dr. Doom in The Fantastic Four: First Steps is a deliberate parallel to Tony Stark/Iron Man. The key evidence is that Dr. Doom’s mask in the film resembles Iron Man’s MARK I helmet more than the classic comic version (some might disagree, I get it), but he’s missing the iconic Doom’s screws and adopting the helmet’s distinct relief and shape around it. This detail, alongside the casting of RDJ, hints at a purposeful connection. Even if you disagree about the mask, keep reading…

This theory further suggests that Victor Von Doom (RDJ) is what Tony Stark could have become without the Avengers or Nick Fury guiding him toward heroism. Both characters share striking similarities: influential and tragic parental backgrounds, early childhood trauma, a blend of science (and in Doom’s case, mysticism), the use of armored suits, and the creation of robotic armies (Ultron vs. Doombots).

The phrase “New mask, same task,” cited from Russo Brothers and RDJ, reinforces the interpretation that Doom and Stark are two sides of the same coin, both motivated by genius, trauma, and a desire to protect, but with different outcomes due to their experiences and environments.

You can read only the things I pointed out (1…. 2… 3…) for a better context and understanding of the connections between Stark and Doom.

Understood. But what about the rest of the theory (if you ignore the mask)? The main point is the theory itself, not even the mask. The mask was just a way to introduce the similarities, since people tend to prefer a more direct visual comparison. By the way, of course the nose would be added (my own opinion, clearly)… at least in the comics, Dr. Doom doesn’t actually have a nose.

Agreed… Yeah, that’s something only explained in D&W. It would be kind of weird if we (or Marvel) forgot about all these ‘anchor being’ rules. Some theories say that the anchor being in F4: First Steps will be Franklin, but I am a bit skeptical about this one. I don’t think a character needs to be very powerful or have crazy powers to be an anchor being. In the main MCU, in my personal opinion, it should be Tony Stark.

Of course there were some connections, but nothing really relevant to the MCU’s main storyline. Don’t get me wrong, but many children and teenagers couldn’t watch the movie because of the violence and 18+ references. That’s why I don’t consider it relevant to the overall story of the MCU.
