Kevin Feige Responds to Robert Downey Jr. MCU Return

Robert Downey Jr.'s possible return to the MCU as Iron Man was a topic of discussion between Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and Entertainment Tonight (ET) during the red carpet world premiere event for The Marvels in Las Vegas, Nevada.

ET: "One specific thing I want to ask you that was in the headlines is this idea that some fallen Avengers could make their return, anything you can say about that? I know the answer…"

Feige: "No? Is that the answer?"

ET: "Yeah?"

Feige: "Hmm….fallen Avengers returning. I literally have not even seen that, is that a new rumor?"

ET: "Yeah, it was, like, one of the things that was talked about at this retreat where Scarlett Johansson and Robert Downey Jr. were possibly returning at some point."

"We did not discuss that at the retreat. It’s the truth. We’re doing a project with Scarlett, we love Robert, he’s a part of the family. But in terms of returning? We’ll have to see."
