That would be weird and stupid if they became a couple in Iron Man 4. MJ would only be like 17 or 18 and Tony would be like 52 or 53 in Iron Man 4. Marvel Studios would never let that happen. Tony Stark cannot be replaced by Harley Keener. Tony Stark should be the only Iron Man. Iron Man 4 wouldn’t be a successful film if some stupid kid like Harley became Iron Man. Robert Downey jr. can’t be replaced, especially by some stupid kid. Iron Man (Robert Downey jr.) needs to face the “real” Mandarin in Iron Man 4. The Ten Rings also need to return in Iron Man 4. Iron Man needs to kill ALL of the Ten Rings soldiers this time in Iron Man 4. Iron Man deserves a quadrilogy. That last Iron Man film, Iron Man 3, really sucked. People should be getting really tired of superheroes only getting trilogies. Trilogies are getting really old and clichéd. Captain America, Thor, and Ant-Man don’t need 4th solo films, only Iron Man and Spider-Man deserve fourth solo films. Captain America, Thor, and Ant-Man are better off with only trilogies. Iron Man and Spider-Man only truly deserve quadrilogies. Iron Man 4 should have the “real” Mandarin as the villain of the movie. Marvel’s Spider-Man 4 should have Carnage as the villain of the movie. Hulk already had his own solo film in the MCU, dumbass. It’s called The Incredible Hulk. The Incredible Hulk is part of the MCU, dumbass. Just because Ed Norton was (sadly) replaced by Mark Ruffalo, doesn’t mean that The Incredible was not canon to the rest of the MCU films. William Hurt is returning as General Thaddeus E. “Thunderolt” Ross in Captain America: Civil War. But the Hulk does definitely deserve solo film sequels. The Hulk needs to get his own sequel at least by 2020. It should be one of those three mystery Marvel movies in 2020. It should be the one in November, 2020. It’s not fair that he’s the only one without a sequel. Marvel and Disney just need to stop being stupid, selfish, and greedy, and just pair up with Universal and share the profits with them already so us Hulk fans can see another Hulk solo film. It’ll take a long time before the Hulk solo film distribution rights revert back to Marvel. By the way, Black Widow and Hawkeye absolutely do NOT deserve their own solo films. They’re both lame characters.

1.) Tge fact that the highest grossing hero in the universe, played by the most charismatic actor of the bunch, may get a 4th film does NOT force the studio into making 4th films for the other heroes. Iron Man is the lynchpin of the MCU, thus far, and the question facing Marvel is more “Do we continue to milk this cow or let IM go out on top?”

2.) Hulk does have a solo film. ‘The Incredible Hulk’ starring Edward Norton and Liv Tyler. Many believed the film to be stricken from record because of poor reception. Proof that the film is in fact part of MCU continuity is the fact that good ol’ Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross is showing up again in ‘Captain America: Civil War’

3.) MJ absolutely cannot make a good love interest in Iron Man 4. Here is why:
In the books, the concept works because the characters are all adults. Yes there is an age difference, but since they are all self supporting adults presumably over 25, it’s not as creep as…
…in the MCU where Parker is reportedly 13-15 years old. Even if he dated out of his league (face it tiger) MJ would at most be 17. Unless Civil War is based on Stark’s support of new legislation that makes it legal for a 45 year old to have intimate relations with a minor, then no way does this see the light of the silver screen ANYTIME soon.
