One of the latest Iron Man 4 rumors that came out was the possibility of replacing Tony Stark with Arno Stark. I'm sure die-hard Iron Man fans know who he is, but for those who don't know him then continue reading below.
In the recent issues of the popular Marvel comics, they revealed that Tony Stark has a nephew. Arno's father is the cousin of Tony and he was the one who inherited the Stark Industries. Arno Stark was called Iron Man 2020 in the Marvel Comics multiverse and this fictional character first appeared in the 2nd issue of Machine Man back in 1984. He also wears a metal armor just like the Iron Man circa Model 5.
Since Robert Downey Jr. hasn't confirmed yet if he will return as Tony Stark, more Iron Man 4 rumors have been spreading. Just recently, there was a buzz about Black Widow replacing Iron Man. It all started when Marvel studio president Kevin Feige talked about Scarlett Johansson's character.
During the press conference of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Feige revealed the possibility of Black Widow having her own movie. Coming Soon reported what the main man of Marvel said that day. Feige exclaimed, "I think the idea would be great!" He added, "We've got various outlines and ideas of where to take that. As Scarlett already said, there's a big element that explores her back story in an upcoming Marvel feature."
Feige explained, "The question really is, 'When will we take her out of the ensemble and have her do her own thing?' As you saw in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, as you'll see in Avengers: Age of Ultron, she's really the key to so much of the plot development."
Since Scarlett Johansson has appeared as Black Widow in Iron Man 2 before, then there is a huge chance of the star taking over the film franchise. The 29-year old actress admitted that she gets a thrill playing the role of the feisty SHIELD agent.
In an interview with Metro, Johansson revealed how she felt about the Black Widow. "As with any character you play you have to at least be sympathetic to what you play. Even if it's a villainous character you have to have some likeability to you. This character has this unexpected humility to her and a soft underbelly. And I have that same softness,' she said.
