This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Summary The Marvel Cinematic Universe almost had Robert Downey Jr. reprising the role of Iron Man in Deadpool & Wolverine.
In a new interview with IndieWire, Deadpool & Wolverine screenwriters Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese, who wrote the two first films, were asked if they had initially tried to have Downey Jr. back as Tony Stark in the scene with Jon Favreau's Happy Hogan.
Wernick: Behind the scenes, we didn’t know about the Doctor Doom. And there’s no way he was going to do both. And then we said, “Oh, Downey doesn’t say ‘no’ to Ryan Reynolds, does he? No one says no to Ryan Reynolds.” And Ryan gave him the hard press. We wrote scenes, and Downey read the scenes, but what we didn’t know behind the scenes was this Doctor Doom thing.
