Instead of playing Victor von Doom, though, he dressed up in Reed Richards&#8217; retro-themed blue outfit, with Pascal dropping his superhero attire to sport Doom&#8217;s iconic metal mask.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">It looks like Downey put a <em>bit <\/em>more effort into his Halloween costume, considering Pascal is wearing jeans and a sweatshirt, but the effect is still there. Finding a convincing replacement for Doctor Doom&#8217;s magical get-up probably would have been more trouble than it&#8217;s worth anyway. You can see Downey&#8217;s video below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DfL1wYpByqM\/embed\" height=\"710\" width=\"612\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">They&#8217;re the variants no one expected to see, but still the ones they got this Halloween. With Doomsday now just weeks away, we&#8217;ll likely only see its many, many stars taking to social media to spread the word.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">That said, this was a tiny bit more than a cute marketing stunt. While it was fun to see the two team up for a quick costume swap, Downey and Pascal still took the time to hit the streets and greet trick-or-treaters. Pascal shared a video of him and the Doctor Doom actor out on the town, walking amongst the crowd, on his Instagram story.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">If that wasn&#8217;t evidence enough, <u>X\/Twitter user Patrick Oneill shared pictures<\/u> of him and two children greeting them in full Star Wars attire. With one kid dressed up as Pascal&#8217;s character, the Mandalorian, Downey <u>reportedly made a joke about the encounter<\/u> by inviting them to come meet the &#8220;real&#8221; Mandalorian.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-theme=\"light\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\" lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Robert Downey Jr. and Pedro Pascal dressed up as Doctor Doom and Mister Fantastic for Halloween. \ud83d\ude2d https:\/\/t.co\/YEK8jjiXjx<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Drew Smith (@DrewDisneyDude) November 1, 2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Avengers: Doomsday premieres December 18, 2026.
