There is no doubt that many are looking forward to the return of Tony Stark in "Iron Man 4." However, fans are torn with the reports suggesting that Robert Downey Jr. will be replaced with a younger female version of Iron Man. Is a female Iron Man better than the genius, billionaire, playboy and philanthropist superhero we have known?
Fans were broken hearted when earlier reports claimed that Robert Downey Jr. will not be reprising his role as Tony Stark a.k.a Iron Man in "Iron Man 4." Parent Herald previously reported that Downey Jr. demanded a pay hike, which caused the delay of the fourth "Iron Man."
However, other sources claimed that Robert Downey Jr. just signed for three "Iron Man" films, adding that there was no "Iron Man 4." On the other hand, fans are clamoring for more "Iron Man" and fans are unwilling to see a new Iron Man.
Disney is aware that getting another actor to play as the superhero in "Iron Man 4" will not work while Robert Downey Jr. is still in the industry. Although he is aging, it is difficult to think of the franchise with another lead actor because the "Sherlock Holmes" star has already personalized it.
In view of this Marvel did a twist in Iron Man's story. Parent Herald previously reported that Tony Stark will be replaced with a black teen name Riri Williams as the next female Iron Man.
Per Yibada reported that the "Game of Thrones" star Nathalie Emmanuel hinted that she will be playing Riri Williams. When asked for a dream role, the star mentioned Robert Downey Jr.'s "Iron Man" and explained that it would be fun to be a science genius and fight against the bad guys.
Meanwhile, Alex Maleev speculated that "Iron Man 4" will feature Iron Doom. Per Ecumenical New, Maleev posted a photo of what appears to be a cross between Iron Man and Doom.
Many believe that the new character in "Iron Man 4" will be called Iron Doom. Per Herominis, Iron Man monopolized the world economy and started a war between humans and mutants. He then killed Magneto and Doom. No one undermines his authority and manipulation and he becomes Iron Doom.
Are you expecting to see Iron Doom in "Iron Man 4?" Do you want Riri Williams over Tony Stark? Which do you prefer to see in "Iron Man 4," Robert Downey Jr. or Nathalie Emmanuel? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
