Robert Downey Jr. Teases That Iron Man Might Be A Part Of Spider-Man Movie

Marvel week on Jimmy Kimmel live continued last night with guest Robert Downey Jr. The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Iron Man teased that there are plans for him to appear in Spider-Man: Homecoming, but it seems those plans haven’t been finalized just yet.

“Perhaps I will,” Downey teased when Kimmel probed about his involvement with the Spidey reboot. “We don’t have a contract yet.”

Sounds like Marvel and Downey (and probably Sony) are trying to come to terms on the finer details of the star’s involvement. Downey doesn’t come cheap, so nothing is certain, but if they can figure out a way to squeeze him into a film as full of stars as Captain America: Civil War is, working out Spider-Man: Homecoming certainly seems doable.

Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War finds Steve Rogers leading the newly formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. But after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark’s surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.
