Avengers Endgame: Robert Downey Jr reveals one condition for his Iron Man RETURN – WATCH
Last year, Robert Downey Jr bowed out as Iron Man with a stunning death scene in Avengers Endgame. The Tony Stark star led the MCU franchise over a decade and is now done with the role. But considering time travel played a big part in Avengers Endgame, surely the door is always open for a cameo return one day?
Downey Jr is currently promoting his new movie Dolittle and appeared on the Joe Rogan podcast where the host encouraged him to make an MCU comeback.
The comedian asked: “Is the door to Iron Man totally closed because I don’t believe it is?
“You guys can go through time now. You’ve already opened up that door.
The Iron Man star replied: “Let me ask you a question. If I pick the jersey back up and put it on, wouldn’t you feel a little bit like, ‘oh craaap.’

However, Rogan enthused: “No. Here’s what I think, they go through a few semi-lacklustre Avengers movies without you.”
“Ready for this? Here’s the scene: There’s a moment where the world’s fate is at stake and they’ve realised they need a super genius.
“Then, they figure out how to restart that time machine…come on man.”
“The audience sees you when you step out of that thing.”

He added: “The way people would freak out if you came back. Come on man.
“Think about it. Take a few years off. Do a few Doctor Dolittes, a couple more Sherlock Holmes.”
In the end, Downey Jr said he was done for now, but was open to a return if it really made sense narratively one day.
The 54-year-old said: “To me, starting up again is off the table. I feel like I’ve done all I could with that character.”

He added: “There would have to be a super compelling argument and a series of events that made it obvious.
“But the other thing is, I wanna do other stuff.”
Downey Jr also put it out there that: “We all have to do what [Marvel Studios boss] Kevin Feige says.”
No doubt, Feige wouldn’t ask for an Iron Man comeback unless it made total sense.
If anything, the MCU could learn from Doctor Who, which saw actors who played The Doctor bow out and then occasionally come back for a one-off episode thanks to time travel.
For the show’s 50th-anniversary special David Tennant returned three years after leaving the role and presumably will be back for the 60th-anniversary episode in 2023 too.
Give it five or 10 years and we reckon we’ll be seeing Iron Man and Captain America cameos.
After all, with time travel and the now the Marvel multiverse being explored in future movies, anything is possible.
