Marvel boss Kevin Feige has added fuel to the rampant speculation that Iron Man will be exiting the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Avengers: Endgame.
Kevin Feige seemingly confirmed the superhero’s fate to fans who have been very concerned about what would happen to him at the end of the Infinity War sequel.
Robert Downey Jr’s character aka Tony Stark was noticeably absent from the trailer of Spider-Man: Far From Home after having a significant part to play in Spider-Man: Homecoming.
So his absence has left many Marvel fans thinking he will die – or be retired – at the end of Endgame which is set to be released before Far From Home.
In a statement (via IANS), Feige said that Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel will now be the most powerful character in MCU – but wait, isn’t that supposed to be Iron Man?
He said: ‘We thought it was the right time to finally introduce Captain Marvel to the world.
‘She is one of the most popular characters and one of the most powerful characters in the comics and will now be the most powerful character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.’
