Yes. The bad guy from Mission: Impossible 2 was originally cast in the role.
I was thinking of the one where he says they should be happy with so and so amount even though they feel they should have earned more.
The studio earning a profit on a film isn't inherently bad.

And now I'm sad
Like his wife?
Because past that I dont see why his estate deserves anything. They didnt create the characters.
Avengers 2 goes out featuring War Machine instead of Iron Man.
War Machine gets his own movie, they recast Tony Stark.
WM movie does well, nobody likes newStark, he gets the axe, Disney ponies up $$$ for RDJ
Avengers 3 has RDJ as Tony. Every time Tony enters a scene, cue random cast member looking at him incredulously.
"Where've you been?"

Or the new Stark is well liked by the public. Downey Jr. retires to the Bahamas with his fuck you money.
That seems rather mean-spirited for RDJ.
Who by all accounts seems to be a really nice, cool dude.
they're totally gonna do teen tony
at least not live action prequel fever
they can do what they want with animation.
I don't consider it a bad thing for Marvel to eventually do prequels.
Not trying to argue but I'm genuinely curious as to your stance on salaries and all the factors associated
but we'll see
how though?
i mean they could do 'in between' movies.
or like
other characters that take place before iron man or something
but how do you do actual prequels of people's favorite characters when the first movies are literally origin stories.
best you can do is reboot the franchise
but please no Iron Man 0
I think we saw the extent of Iron Man 0 that I personally care for in Iron Man 3.

But the studios are much better at hiding their profits.
I think its more likely that we'll see a hiatus for avengers and the like as we move into phase three and they start new franchises

With prequels the they don't have to focus so much on placing them in the current schedule with other prequels, unless they were all tied together which they don't need to be. That said, you're right the only franchise that's possible to do a prequel with is Thor, Black Widow, Hawkeye or Nick Fury. Everyone else is not prequel material in a super-hero sense unless they want to make pre-Iron Man Tony Stark going on adventures.*

Well if they handle it like GG suggested, where you build worlds we've gotten a glimpse of through such prequels that may introduce new characters, that I'd be totally down for.
It'd be a nice break for a few years than go back to the next Phase or something to fill in an empty slot. They can build the universe further with prequels, too.
But the Marvel films are built so heavily around origin stories.
I mean I certainly see the allure what with being able to build a film around an already known character/actor, but I think it's be easier to just do stand-alone films.
Stand-alone films which don't have to continue the overall narrative of the MCU.
eh, they were heavily based around origin stories, but they've done two Iron Man sequels, a Hulk movie that put the origin in the opening credits, and they've got Cap and Thor sequels on the way
so I dunno
If you were going to do a prequel film I'd say a nice choices might be one about SHIELD and its formation.
Marvel hasn't had a choice. They need origin stories to introduce these new series to the audience who don't know anything about them until recently. Its only in Phase 2 that they've had the chance to do more then origin stories, excluding Iron Man 2.
They don't have to but the option's there. Prequels can go either way.
If you do a prequel do it for a good reason.
