We love this 3000! Robert Downey Jr. to return as Iron Man in new Disney+ series 'What If...?'

Actor Robert Downey Jr, who won hearts all across the world as enigmatic superhero Iron Man, bid adieu to his superhero avatar with Avengers: Endgame this year. And we hear that he might be reprising his Iron Man role in Disney+ upcoming animated series, What If...?

Jeff Goldblum, who played the Grandmaster in Marvel’s Thor: Ragnarok, recently filmed a video for a channel, wherein he answered fan questions. During one of them, he was asked if he will be seen in Thor: Love And Thunder. To which he inadvertently replied by saying that Robert will return to voice Iron Man in one of Marvel’s What If? episodes, which will stream or Disney+. "I played the part again a couple of days ago. I went to the Disney Studios and I recorded The Grandmaster's voice for an episode of a show that's gonna be on Disney+ that's called 'What If...?'," the veteran actor said the video, adding, "It's an animated version of all the characters we know and love from Marvel and this episode included the Grandmaster and Iron Man, so Robert Downey Jr will do a voice for that, and Korg... Taika Waititi had already recorded his voice for that, so yeah, for a couple hours I enjoyed doing that."
