Many are looking forward to the fourth iteration of "Iron Man." Fans are devastated when they learn that Robert Downey Jr. will not be reprising his role. However, when the "Captain America: Civil War" expresses his interest to do "Iron Man 4" fans are very happy. However, according to reports, Black Widow will be taking the lead in "Iron Man 4."
Black Widow To Take The Next Suit In "Iron Man 4."
Parent Herald previously reported that the Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) would be taking the lead in "Iron Man 4." There are rumors that Natasha Romanova will be the first female Iron Man.
However, it seems unlikely for Black Widow to be taking the spotlight from Robert Downey Jr in "Iron Man 4." First, fans want no other actor to be Iron Man. Not the young Ty Simpkins or the experienced Leonardo DiCaprio or Johansson. There is no doubt that Iron Man's colleague, Black Widow will not be enough to replace the genius, billionaire, playboy and philanthropist superhero.
"Despite his impressive resume, it's a stretch to imagine that Marvel Studios believes he has the presence and charisma to replace Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man," Cinema Blend reported. The outlet continues that the "Iron Man" franchise will not be as successful without Downey Jr. in the lead.
Black Widow Will Have A Solo Film
Meanwhile, Kevin Feige disclosed that they are planning to do a solo film for Black Widow. The Marvel Studios maestro is very impressed with Johansson's portrayal of the secret agent spy.
"We think she's an amazing character. We think Scarlett Johansson's portrayal of her is amazing," he said. "She's a lead Avenger and has amazing stories in her own right to tell that we think would be fun to turn into a stand-alone franchise," Feige told Deadline.
Since Black Widow will be having her own film, it is unlikely for the character to take the lead in "Iron Man 4." Also, there are several issues that need to be addressed in "Iron Man 4" including his abduction in the first film by the Mandarin.
'Iron Man 4' Out In 2020
According to Morning Ledger, there are rumors that "Iron Man 4" will be released in 2020. However, Marvel has not confirmed this yet. Nonetheless, "Iron Man" fans are expecting the film in the said year.
