Speculation about a fight(verbal) between Ryan Reynolds and Robert Downey Jr. has been spreading like crazy online across social media, but People is shutting it all down. With no actual bad vibes in sight, these two MCU favorites are far from feuding reportedly. People put out a article with their “sources” about the drama rumor set being nothing between these two.
- They’ve Never Crossed Paths in Person: Despite both being big names in the Marvel world, Reynolds and Downey Jr. haven’t actually met face to face. That alone pokes a huge hole in tales of onset drama, especially since rumors hinted at a joke spiraling out of control during filming for something like the upcoming Avengers film.
- No Hard Feelings Whatsoever: An exclusive source from People said there is “zero bad blood” between the pair. It’s all good vibes from afar, with no real conflict to speak of.
- A Fun History, Not a Feisty One: Back in 2019, the two traded lighthearted jabs during a fantasy football league run by the Russo brothers. Downey Jr. tossed out a cheeky “Eat me” line, and Reynolds fired back by munching on a cookie stamped with the Iron Man star’s face.
Final Thoughts
These two are fine together on or off set, apparently. Marvel has a lot of people that do damage control for them from time to time, but this definitely could be simply a rumor debunked. On the other hand were there other two actors fighting on set? Who really knows besides the “sources”, either way we hope this movie really comes through for Marvel, to start setting up their new beginning.
