Bad news for ‘Iron Man’ fans, Marvel Cinematic Universe President Kevin Feige told Vanity Fair that Robert Downey Junior will not play Tony Stark in any more M-C-U movies.  “We are going to keep that moment and not touch that moment again,” Feige said.  “We all worked very hard for many years to get to that, and we would never want to magically undo it in any way.”

The mag’s cover story says Robert almost wasn’t cast as Tony Stark. The studio was turned off by his legal troubles. Even with Kevin and director Jon Favreau vouching for him, he still had to do a screen test. The rest is history.
