Robert Downey Jr.
to Reprise 'Iron Man' Role According to Deadline, Robert Downey Jr. is set
to star as Iron Man in the upcoming 'Black Widow' film. He has played the iconic superhero in
the Marvel Cinematic Universe since 2008. 'Black Widow,' starring Scarlett Johansson,
is reportedly a prequel that takes place before
the events of 'Avengers: Endgame.' It is unclear how big Downey Jr.'s role will be
in the movie, but it was previously believed
that he was done with the MCU completely. Marvel has yet to confirm
whether or not he will return
to his most famous on-screen role. By contrast, it has been confirmed that
Florence Pugh will star in the upcoming movie, with the actress recently saying she feels excited
by the boldness of the 'Black Widow' script.
