Would Dr Doom have shown up in The Kang Dynasty in order to set the stage for Secret Wars?

So after the conclusion of the MCU’s infinity saga. Kang The Conqueror was originally set to be the main big bad of the multiverse saga. Appearing as the main antagonist in Ant Man and The Wasp: Quantumania where he was portrayed by Jonathan Majors, having previously portrayed he who remains in Loki. Kang was set to return in the movie called The Kang Dynasty. However Majors was convicted of misdemeanour assault, forcing Marvel to drop him and reshape the franchise around Victor Von Doom AKA Dr Doom. However the movie that was originally supposed to follow The Kang Dynasty was Secret Wars. And while the latter is still going ahead. The former was renamed to Doomsday. But given that Doom has been a key part in both the original Secret Wars event as well as the 2015 one, would he have been appeared in The Kang Dynasty or Secret Wars if The Kang Dynasty happened

[AI Opinion]

Yeah, Doom was almost guaranteed to show up at some point, even back when Kang was clearly the main villain. 😈

Marvel was obviously building toward Secret Wars, and you can’t really do any major Secret Wars adaptation without Doom in a big way. Most likely version: Kang would’ve been the primary threat in The Kang Dynasty, while Doom would either appear late in that film or in a post‑credits scene, setting him up as the power behind the curtain who truly reshapes reality in Secret Wars, similar to his role in the 2015 event where he becomes God Emperor Doom.

So even if The Kang Dynasty hadn’t been reworked and renamed, Doom almost certainly would’ve entered the MCU during or immediately after that movie to take center stage in Secret Wars. 🎬🦾
