Although it’s hard to imagine anyone other than Robert Downey Jr. taking on the Iron Man mantle, there are rumors that the actor might soon retire from the role.

"Iron Man" is considered as one of the most sought after Marvel film. Besides the fact that Robert Downey Jr. portrayed Tony Stark greatly, the movie also features a lot of action scenes that definitely knock the audience' socks off.

Game N Guide reported that there's a huge chance that "Iron Man 4" would still happen, although chances that Downey portraying the role of the iconic character is still a blur.

According to the same publication, in the upcoming fourth installment of the film, a girl might be the one to wear the Iron suit. It is speculated that Tony Stark would already pass off the suit to Riri Williams - the teenage girl who would be able to create and replicate the iron suit from scratch which would catch Stark's attention and would eventually lead him in to passing his throne to the girl.

Rumors also claim that RDJ already turned down Marvel's offer for him to reprise his role as Iron Man for the last time. It is said that during the negotiation between the company and the actor, both of the parties ended up not agreeing to some financial aspects, and it seems like Marvel could no longer afford Downey anymore. Another possible reason why Downey turned down the offer is the fact that the actor's contract with Marvel already expired, and he's not planning to renew it anytime soon.

In other news, although the appearance of RDJ in "Iron Man 4" is still unsure, his participation in the upcoming "Spiderman: Homecoming" was recently confirmed. It can be recalled that as seen in "Avengers: Age of Ultron," Stark was the one who discovered Spiderman's identity and his capabilities.

According to Health Aim, Tony Stark would serve as the young Peter Parker's mentor, wherein he would be the one to train the young web crawler and shape him in becoming a superhero.

If rumors about RDJ's rejection is true, his fans might see him portray the role of Iron Man for the very last time in the upcoming "Spiderman" movie. Although a lot of fans are sad about the news, a lot of them are also curious on how Marvel would play their way around now that RDJ is out.
