HEY GUYS, this is a pretty big one.
Marvel has confirmed that Robert Downey Jr., AKA Iron Man, will return to the MCU after Avengers 2 for Captain America 3, which will also serve as the kick-off to the MCU's Civil War. We don't know a lot more than that and all of this comes from a Variety report that seems unofficial as yet. If it is all to be believed, this is a huge step that many fans have been speculating about since Marvel began to tie these movies together in such a unique and sweeping fashion. This could all have to do as well with
another teaser Marvel has released in the aftermath of NYCC that seemingly reveals a new CIVIL WAR-based series coming in summer 2015. The teaser image, at left, shows Iron Man and an apparently Steve Rogers Captain America fighting over a Civil War Scarlet Spider-esque costume Spider-Man. Fans of the original series know that Iron Man, fighting on the side of pro-registration and additional security, convinces Spider-Man to reveal his secret identity only to have Spidey regret it and switch over to Captain America's anti-registration/personal freedoms side (the right side). Guys, I love CIVIL WAR. It's what really sold me on comics all those years ago. This new wave of news also adds fuel to the fire that's been building about whether or not Sony will loan out Spider-Man for the Marvel Cinematic Universe to use (mmmm, they should. I would love a Marvel Studios Andrew Garfield Spider-Man. Lotta capitals in that sentence). Potentially really cool maybe news.
