According to new rumors, a Marvel icon from the '90s could be on the verge of making a comeback. But what's behind the speculation?
The answer seems clear. On the magnificent finale of Avengers: Endgame Many MCU films have been worked on for several years. A return of Iron Man would definitely invalidate his on-screen death.
