At the heart of Marvel’s cinematic universe is a fractured friendship, and it’s looking increasingly likely that it is, in fact, beyond repair.
We are, of course, referring to the bond between Steve Rogers (Captain America/Nomad) and the cocksure Tony Stark (Iron Man), who will still be feeling the full effects of Civil War by the time Marvel launches Avengers: Infinity War into theaters late next month.
That’s something Robert Downey Jr. addressed in a recent interview with Empire Magazine (h/t Cbm), where the McU stalwart acknowledged the ways in which Tony’s past – primarily his fateful encounter with Obadiah Stane (Jeff Bridges) – has allowed a collection of nasty trust issues to fester in his mind.
To me the big question is could he ever in clear conscience pick up that flip phone Cap sent him at the end of Civil War. That is really it.
