AVENGERS: ENDGAME Directors And Robert Downey Jr. Tease Idea Of Working Together Again In The MCU

During a recent live commentary for Avengers: Endgame held on Instagram Live, directors Joe and Anthony Russo introduced Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr. as a special guest. While the filmmakers have already shared their thoughts on what it would take to bring Tony Stark back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it was during this exchange that they acknowledged it even more directly. 

"I would say it feels like you go to summer camp and then they yank it away from, because we do have a lot of fun working on these things together," Joe said in regard to having spent so much time working in this shared world for Marvel Studios. "Everyone has a lot of fun, you get real close to reach other and then you miss it. Maybe we'll have to do it again some day."

Here's where things get really interesting, though, and what's got fans talking today. Downey responded to the filmmaker with, "The people, they will move us toward what they want."

His comments are undeniably vague, but there's speculation that this is a tease that they could team-up to bring Iron Man back to the big screen. Considering the Russo Brothers have expressed an interest in helming a Secret Wars movie somewhere down the line, it's definitely possible that a story like that could be used to bring Tony Stark back for one final adventure.

What do you guys think?

I'd like to see all these people work together again, directed by the Russos, but not on a Marvel project. Just some new original film. A cool ensemble piece like Knives Out or even Smokin Aces.

@MosquitoFarmer -
Chef was awesome. RJD, ScarJo, Bobby Canavale. Favreau playing with his buddies. I would pay to see more of that.

@Goldboink - I wasn't overly fond of Favreau's character, but that was also kind of the point. He was struggling as a father, but as a top-level chef he necessarily needed to be a hard-ass. Having worked in a few kitchens, that aspect is fairly on point. But the food scenes (food porn as Favreau accurately called them) are just a joy to watch. That grilled cheese...

@MosquitoFarmer -
His character certainly started weak but by the end he was alright. The Grilled Cheese. Massaging the mojo into the meat. The pasta in bed with ScarJo.

Yea. the Chef Show on Netflix is also a pleasure. Making Cubano's with Bill Burr is a treat.

The lust for money will bring all of them back together.

@KingLeonidas - It's less about money and more about clout, which I ain't mad at!

@LongMayHeReign - It IS about money. Everything is.

@KingLeonidas - Did you not notice my use of the word "less" in terms of the money factor? RDJ has enough money to support the next 6 generations of his family, (hell 90% of Hollywood does) but actors act to be seen on the biggest stage and to be loved and adored for their talents.

If all these elderly actors continue working merely for the paycheck then there are A LOT of people who have mismanaged their money!

Although I could the Russos and RDJ return for a Secret Wars adaptation, I think them collaborating on a non-MCU movie could be fun too
