Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania has only been in cinemas for a few days, but Jonathan Majors is already throwing down the gauntlet. The American star recently made his debut on the Disney Plus show, Loki, as Kang. He reprises his role in Ant-Man, and he is quickly becoming the next Avengers-level threat that viewers will see take on Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. But Majors wants to take on one legendary hero: Iron Man.
Tony Stark gave his life to defeat the Mad Titan, while Captain America Steve Rogers also bowed out of the race after barely surviving the ordeal.
On top of that, Black Widow, Gamora and Vision were all killed off. If Kang’s latest appearance in Ant-Man is anything to go by, there may be some more major deaths coming in the near future.
But would Iron Man star Downey Jr ever make a comeback? The actor himself doesn’t seem to think so. He spoke to podcaster Joe Rogan in recent years where he toyed with the idea of returning as the Iron Man in the future.
Downey Jr 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… We all have to do what [Marvel Studios boss] Kevin Feige says.”
Meanwhile, a new Iron Man replacement was just introduced in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever – Ironheart. Played by Dominique Thorne, the newcomer to the series is a new take on the Iron Man mythos, and she is sure to become a major player in the upcoming series.
Watch Ant-Man, Ant-Man and the Wasp, and all the other Marvel Cinematic Universe movies on Disney Plus now.
