Andrew Tate has stirred the pot again. This time, he's targeting Robert Downey Jr.'s return to the MCU. What's got him so riled up? Downey Jr. is back, not as Iron Man but as the villain Doctor Doom. Announced at San Diego Comic-Con, fans went wild. But Tate? He was far from impressed.

He called the cheering fans "slaves" and "drones." Why such harsh words? Tate often speaks out against celebrity culture. He thinks people should focus on their own lives. Is he right, or just stirring controversy?

Andrew Tate's fiery take on comic-con's cheers

Robert Downey Jr. is back in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but not as the beloved Iron Man. Instead, he's stepping into the shoes of the iconic villain Doctor Doom. This exciting news was revealed at San Diego Comic-Con, where Downey Jr. made a dramatic entrance. He appeared on stage, initially concealed behind Doctor Doom's iconic mask and green cloak, before unveiling himself to a thrilled crowd. "I like playing complicated characters," Downey Jr. told reporters, clearly excited about his new role.

However, not everyone shared the excitement. Andrew Tate, known for his controversial opinions, took to X (formerly Twitter) to voice his displeasure.


He didn't just criticize Downey Jr.'s new role; he also targeted the fans who cheered at the announcement. Tate's tweet read: "Imagine screaming for this. Every single person in the crowd is a slave. Drones. The people who want you dead for not obeying the government. Stupid people are easily led, and our ‘leaders’ are treasonous. Stupid people by default are evil."

Despite Tate's harsh words, the excitement surrounding Downey Jr.'s return is palpable. Fans are eagerly anticipating Avengers: Doomsday, set for a May 2026 release, and potentially other future projects, including Secret Wars. As the MCU continues to evolve, Downey Jr.'s portrayal of Doctor Doom is sure to be a highlight.
