Ever since Robert Downey Jr's Tony Stark aka Iron Man bid adieu in Avengers: Endgame, fans have been hoping to see the character once again in Marvel's films and series set before the events of Endgame or at least in flashbacks. While the actor maintained that he won't be suiting up again, netizens recently nearly went into a frenzy after hearing that Downey Jr will in fact be a part of Thor: Love and Thunder. Thanks to the film's director, Taika Waititi who seemed to be in the mood to prank Marvel fans, there was almost a moment where everyone believed that Tony Stark is alive and will make an appearance in the Chris Hemsworth starter. Stephen Colbert Imagines How Robert Downey Jr's Tony Stark Would Have Stopped the Coronavirus Pandemic (Watch Video).

The Oscar-winning filmmaker jokingly teased that Robert Downey Jr‘s Tony Stark would be returning for the film when he recently went live on Instagram on Thursday, April 9. Waititi showed a fake script page of his upcoming Thor film which showed a conversation between Thor and Tony Stark where the former in a completely bewildered state says, " “Do’th mineth eyeth deceiveth me?” Not only this, the page also stated that Thanos is back. The blurry script page also reads, Tony saying, “Everyone who died is coming back. And this time we’re avenging even more than ever. From now on we’ll be known as… The Avengererers.”
