Robert Downey Jr. is about to sign the lucrative dotted line to suit up again as Iron Man. This time around he’ll be a vital part of the cast of Captain America 3.
He’s in final negotiation to play billionaire Tony Stark in the as-yet titled 3rd installment of the revamped Captain America franchise.
Via Variety:
The new pact is significant for the Marvel cinematic universe considering the plot will pit Stark against Captain America’s alter-ego Steve Rogers, played by Chris Evans, as they feud over the Superhero Registration Act, which forces anyone with superhuman abilities to reveal their identities to the U.S. government and agree to act as a police force for the authorities.
Downey Jr. will be used to donning the iron as he’s already lined up additional Stark awesomeness in next summer’s The Avengers: Age of Ultron.
