Marvel’s presentation at CinemaCon included Marvel president Kevin Feige, “Doomsday” directors Anthony and Joe Russo, and two of the most significant and cherished MCU actors: Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans. The duo has portrayed Tony Stark/Iron Man and Steve Rogers/Captain America in numerous MCU films, encompassing all “Avengers” entries released thus far.

The two actors also shared a lighthearted moment during the event, as Evans remarked that he has a dislike for Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom.
