It has been years since the last time we heard news about "Iron Man", the film that started all Marvel films. With speculations about the series ending, fans are not much worried rather they are more concerned about Robert Downey Jr. stepping down as the billionaire philanthropist Tony Stark to take the "Sherlock Holmes 3" role of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Neither MCU nor RDJ confirmed the speculations but according to reports, Robert Downey Jr. will decline the role of Iron Man in the upcoming Marvel films as he puts his focus on the "Sherlock Holmes 3" character.
