What's the need to train? A stunt-double and CGI is going to do most of the work anyway.

He actually needs this. He's gotten pretty fat since Iron Man 3 wrapped :/

RDJ forever. Looks like Evans is done after Avengers 3, Hemsworth will continue as Thor, do not let RDJ stop.

Make Yensin The Mandarin ala Keyser Soze and Ezekiel Stane for Iron Man 5

Ok. Cool. I guess.

If they ever make another Iron Man movie to fix the Mandarin then he has to be the secondary villain. Don't want to make it so obvious.

Wait I'm confused.. I don't get why he would start training while filming is going on..

He looks fine to me, what is the need to train? Batman is someone who SHOULD look strong. Tony can look average, his suit does all the work. Hmmmmm....

He doesn't pull the "heels" off, ruins his image.

I don't see how they could replace ANYONE. I never was a fan of the whole James Bond thing with 50 actors portraying the same role.

Dear god, what have you done. . .

Personally, I'm hoping his role in this movie is just a key supporting role as Tony Stark, and that War Machine/Iron Patriot takes Iron Man's spot on The Avengers. In my opinion, we've had plenty of Iron Man/Tony Stark and not enough of War Machine in action. And it fits with the end of Iron Man 3 that Tony would at least be taking a break from superheroing for a while. Anyway, I really look forward to finding out what Rhody, Falcon and Winter Soldier are doing during the events of this film...

He wears armor but there are scenes as Tony where he needs to look fit.
I guarantee that being IM is physically taxing at times.

Tony is a genius & smart people know it's wise to be in condition.
Now I gotta go eat 14 doughnuts...later!

It's better if you think about the character of "James Bond" as just being a codename and not an actual person.

@DaVinci31 lol

Probably because they don't shoot any of his character's physical scenes until they travel to some other location later in the year.

Lol! You people are cruel. Maybe he's gonna have a scene with his shirt off or some sh*t. Stark nipples.

"He doesn't pull the 'heels' off, ruins his image."

"Ruin his image" with whom? Insecure homophobes, maybe? If his troubled past with drug addiction, alcoholism, and, prison didn't hurt a person's opinion of him, I doubt they're all a sudden going to think less of him for wearing platform shoes for work.

Get a grip and don't let go.

Lmao! Maybe Disney will go all out and have him Stark naked. Perhaps a lil' Tony on Pepper action? Nah, they'd have to be Stark raving mad...

Lol, Can't even take this news serious. The most action Downey's ever done outside of the suit was hammering the iron mask in Iron Man 1.

Lmboooo!!

Glad he's working out. let's hope he doesn't injure his leg like he did in IM3 on set.
SauronsBANE

...You people do realize he wore heels on set because he's short...right? Like, the filmmakers didn't like the visual of Pepper towering over Tony, so they gave RBD heels to wear to give him an extra few inches.

Also, he did tons of practical work in Iron Man 3. Anyone remember him getting hurt during production, as McNyagano just mentioned? He's not training to be Henry Cavill-levels of buff, he's training so he can be healthy enough to do his own stunts. He's almost 50 years old, for crying out loud. Some of you guys need a few lessons in common sense.
McNyagano
McNyagano - 3/8/2014, 4:32 PM
RDJ doesn't do action outside the suit? Apparently some people forget this:






Or t the final battle (where he actually injured his leg). I guess some people like trolling. Trolls gonna Troll.
SauronsBANE
SauronsBANE - 3/8/2014, 4:33 PM
Exactly, Omega. Also, no idea why I shortened Robert Downey Jr's name to RBD rather than RDJ.

He's actually looking pretty spry for a 48 year old.
