RDJ and Pedro Pascal Swapped Marvel Roles for Halloween

By Tyler, Portal Master Studios · From Issue #5, November 3, 2026

Robert Downey Jr. dressed as Mister Fantastic and Pedro Pascal dressed as Doctor Doom for Halloween

The best Halloween costume this year goes to the Avengers: Doomsday cast. Robert Downey Jr., who plays Doctor Doom, dressed up as Mister Fantastic, and Pedro Pascal, who plays Mister Fantastic, went as Doctor Doom, complete with the mask, green hood, and cape. Both posted it on Instagram on Halloween, and the two reportedly even went trick-or-treating together.

Is it just a fun bit, or a hint at how close these two characters are going to get in Doomsday? Either way, I love that these two are clearly having this much fun six weeks before the movie. And boy am I jealous of anyone who ran into these two legends while hunting for candy. Source

Quick hits: Sony is reportedly re-releasing Spider-Man: Brand New Day with a restored deleted scene featuring Rosario Dawson's Claire Temple, though there's no date yet (Source).
