When Robert Downey Jr. When asked what some of his best acting moments are, he says without a doubt that they are in there the films of Miracle, but he knows that this work went unnoticed because of the genre, which is not taken very seriously in the film industry.

Downey, who debuted in 2008 as Tony Stark and his alter ego Hombre de Hierro, He spoke with his colleague Rob Low on the podcast Literal! yesterday, January 11, saying that the Marvel Cinematic Universe is home to some of the best evidence of his acting talent, eleven years in total ending in 2019 with Avengers: Endgame.

And if it depends on the president of Marvel, Kevin Feige, That story will remain there, since last month he said so I won’t call Downey again, that the end of Endgame It was intentional, a work of years, and he has no intention of undoing it through magic.

Naturally, many Avengers fans want Feige to change his mind, and Lowe’s is one of them.

“I want to be present for that call. “I want to negotiate for you,” Rob Lowe told his colleague.. “I know what you have to say: ‘I’m coming back and playing Tony Stark, since they ruined everything. But I want a billion (fantastic amount) of dollars. And I want the first gross dollar (a percentage of the box office receipts) of each film’. It’s what I would do.”

Downey, 58, laughed at the proposal from Lowe, 59, and warned him it would sound too hostile.

After being Iron Man, Downey Jr. began. starring and producing Dolittle, which did not do well at the box office or with critics. He told Lowe that this was his bath of humility, an exposure to reality after being locked in the “Marvel cocoon.”
