• PEOPLE says there is no feud and that Downey and Reynolds have not met

• Downey is back in Marvel as Doctor Doom which resets his place in the MCU without undoing Endgame

• Deadpool in Doomsday is still unconfirmed so treat new claims with caution

• Secrecy around big Marvel shoots makes rumors easy to spread and hard to verify

• The smart move is to wait for official confirmations while tracking trusted outlets

• “Rumors sprint. Reporting walks in with receipts.”

• “Downey as Doom gives Marvel a villain with gravity and a path that does not rewrite past endings.”

• “Treat set gossip like concept art. Interesting to look at, not the final cut.”
