Alden Ehrenreich isn’t any stranger to being part of a giant franchise due to his work in Solo: A Star Wars Story, however apparently, the actor wished to seek the advice of a well known veteran of the Marvel Cinematic Universe earlier than he signed on for Ironheart. Who higher for him to ask than Robert Downey Jr.? The MCU’s unique Iron Man imparted some shocking recommendation upon Ehrenreich forward of the latter committing to the function.
We nonetheless do not know something extra about Alden Ehrenreich’s thriller function in Ironheart, however we do know what Robert Downey Jr. needed to say to his co-star on the upcoming movie Oppenheimer when Ehrenreich requested him about becoming a member of Ironheart. The actor shared RDJ’s feedback with THR, and the “honor” he had of introducing the Iron Man actor to Dominique Thorne as his successor:
Nicely, it wasn’t a lot recommendation. He was speaking about ‘microdosing’ industrial initiatives alongside creative ones, after which proper earlier than I mentioned sure to it, I simply FaceTimed him and was like, ‘Is there one thing that I must know earlier than I signal on to this?’ I used to be like, ‘Is he going to say, ‘Don’t do it’?’ I believe they requested Harrison Ford earlier than [Solo] what he would say to the following Han Solo, and he mentioned, ‘Don’t do it.’ However Downey didn’t say that, and I type of had the respect of introducing [Downey and Thorne]. They didn’t know one another and hadn’t talked but, so I put them in touch with one another. He’s so unfuckingbelievably beneficiant and candy and giving together with his time, and he was so pleased to speak to her and encourage her. In order that was very nice.
It is actually cool to listen to Robert Downey Jr. was prepared and pleased to speak to Dominique Thorne about successfully turning into the successor to his Iron Man by way of her character Ironheart, who was first seen in Black Panther: Wakanda Ceaselessly. It should really feel good to talk to the actor who was successfully the godfather of the MCU and to listen to his encouragement about taking up a job, whether or not you are Thorne or Alden Ehrenreich.
The thought of “microdosing” industrial and creative initiatives can also be attention-grabbing and possibly useful recommendation that would stop an actor from feeling burnt out from doing a superhero collection and probably films. Being part of the MCU, even on a small scale, can open the door to lots of roles in different Marvel initiatives. Having some small indie venture may assist any actor change issues up and work in a unique style than supehero.
Though particulars about his function within the MCU are scarce, Alden Ehrenreich looking for out Robert Downey Jr.’s recommendation may level to the longevity his thriller Ironheart character might need within the MCU. In spite of everything, why would Marvel’s highest-paid actor be speaking about supplementing with creative initiatives if this was only a one-off portrayal? Maybe RDJ was simply talking in broad phrases, however I am way more within the function Ehrenreich is enjoying than I used to be beforehand.
All this information arrives simply as Vin Diesel put it out within the universe that he needs Robert Downey Jr. for the Quick and Livid franchise. There is no telling what degree of willingness the actor has to affix that franchise, however perhaps he’ll be receptive coming off of Oppenheimer the recommendation he gave Alden Ehrenreich. I do know there are a variety of people that wish to see him return as Iron Man, although that day might by no means come.
Ironheart is coming to Disney+, and there are lots of different upcoming Marvel reveals on the horizon. You should definitely preserve a watch out for official arrival dates within the coming months as Marvel drills down its definitive plans for Part 5 and past.
