Robert Downey Jr to return to MCU in 'Avengers: Secret Wars'? Twitterati have hilarious reaction to viral rumour

Since Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man was killed out of the Marve Cinematic Universe in the events of 'Avengers: Endgame', there has been much talk of the actor's return.

With the superheroes now navigating the Multiverse, fans have been holding on to the possibilities of RDJ's Tony Stark, Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow, and Chris Evans' Captain America all returning for another showdown. While at first rumours were rife of the slain superheroes being resurrected in 'Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness', now rumours state that the heroes will be back in action in 'Avengers: Secret Wars', slated for a May 1, 2026 release.

According to viral tweets, Robert will be back in a cameo. Unconfirmed reports state that the actor will return as his much-loved character in the upcoming Marvel film. Reports even state that the poor performances of the recent releases (barring 'Spider-Man: No Way Home') coupled with the lukewarm response to the new breed of heroes, has prompted talks for a possible return of some fan-favourite characters.

Till these rumours are proven to be true, here's how fans hilariously reacted to the viral posts.
