Latinos Post has an interesting article that has Mark Wahlberg expressing his interest in playing Iron Man if and when Robert Downey Jr. decides to leave the popular franchise:
“I would like to take over the Iron Man franchise for Robert Downey, [but] it’s one of those things where I kind of like playing real people, [so] I’ve never been asked”
He also mentioned that he was up for the role of Robin in Batman Forever, concluding with “[I] dodged a bullet!”
What does Marvel Studios think of this idea? Kevin Feige has this to say “I don’t think Robert will be playing this character for another 30 years, and I certainly hope the character stays in movies for the next 30 years — just like James Bond. I would say before George Lazenby and Roger Moore, Sean Connery was James Bond”
What do we think? We think there will be a lot of people making Photoshops of Wahlberg in the Avengers sequel with the caption “Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch”
Please Marvel, don’t do this….
