Has Robert Downey Jr. Confirmed 'Captain America' And 'Iron Man' For SPIDER-MAN?
Did Robert Downey Jr. confirm that he and Chris Evans will be reprising the roles of Iron Man and Captain America in the 2017 Spider-Man reboot? The evidence certainly points that way, so hit the jump for details on what sounds like a very big cameo in the upcoming movie...
ComicBook.com has a very interesting piece up analysing Robert Downey Jr.'s recent comments on Jimmy Kimmel Live about him and Chris Evans returning to Atlanta to shoot something in the near future now that they've wrapped up work on Captain America: Civil War. Were they referring to reshoots? Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2? Avengers: Infinity War? How about Spider-Man? The site appear to be convinced that it's the latter, especially now that Tom Holland has confirmed that the 2017 reboot will shoot there, and this does make sense. After all, a big part of the deal between Marvel and Sony was that Marvel characters would appear in the wall-crawler's rebooted solo franchise, and who better than the two heroes who will no doubt be fighting for Peter Parker's allegiance when he makes his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut next year? What do you think?
