Rumors of Robert Downey Jr.’s Comeback to the MCU Surface Again 

Foreign media reported that Robert Downey Jr., the star of the ‘Iron Man’ film series, was spotted on the set of a MCU film.

According to reports from outlets such as CBR, Robert Downey Jr. visited the set of the film ‘Captain America: Brave New World.’ He was reportedly driving all kinds of supercars on the set. A film security agent posted about seeing Robert Downey Jr. on their LinkedIn account on June 6th.

Although the probability of Robert Downey Jr. reprising his role as Iron Man is slim, considering that the MCU has recently been exploring the concept of the multiverse, there is a possibility of him making a special appearance. Alternatively, it could be a flashback scene.

Earlier, rumors of Robert Downey Jr.’s return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe have been consistently mentioned. Robert Downey Jr. left Marvel after ‘Avengers: Endgame’ in 2019. However, Marvel fans still cannot forget Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man.

In last year’s ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,’ Ironheart (Riri Williams), known as the “second Iron Man,” was introduced, but it did not fully satisfy the fans’ longing.

In the same year, in December, rumors even emerged that Robert Downey Jr. had decided to appear in the sixth installment of ‘The Avengers’ and had already completed the contract.

In response to this, Marvel Studios executive Stephen Broussard officially denied the possibility of Robert Downey Jr.’s return, stating in February, “After more than 10 years since the start of Marvel storytelling, we no longer mention Robert Downey Jr.’s return. A new generation is taking the lead.

On the other hand, it has been revealed that veteran Hollywood actor Harrison Ford will appear as a villain in the film ‘Captain America: Brave New World.’ Harrison Ford is expected to play Thunderbolt Ross, Hulk’s adversary.
