However, 5000 quotes tweets for this because people are upset at someone else could have played Iron Man.

The big titles of the past decade are brands and franchises established in numerous prequels and sequels. Robert Downey Jr is a leading man, but his Iron Man could be played by almost anyone with wit; the character is more important to audiences than the actor.
This kinda pushback is what we're up against.

Of course people are gonna be hostile to the idea that anyone could play Iron Man because the MCU as a whole started with Robert Downey Junior. Plus RDJ had 11 long years to cement Tony Stark as a pop culture juggernaut by giving audiences a complete story arc, so it’s only natural people can’t see anyone else in the role.
Marvel barely scratched the surface with T’Challa on the other hand, and it really would seem like a waste to shelve him when I was just getting started.

Marvel/Disney is moving away from actor empowerment
And rightfully so imo
Feigie is out putting oit staments about only working with actors excited to be a part of marvel (code for lower pay)
Press release about ending multi movie contract deal of old
Fighting with Actors about pay (Skarlet and Chad)
The seem to have realised that ANY actor who does well in a marcel role becomes an "A to B List" actor and household name.
Bri Larson is probably the biggest name theyve initially used and marvel fans are still lukewarm on her.
Money is not a loose as it used to be for Disney
Wait, they fought with Chad about payment?

There were rumors a few months before he died that Chadwick and Disney were in dispute over his pay.
His contract was only 5 movies to start so... CW, BP, IW, EG
So, I'd imagine it was about time to talk extension to go past BP2 and the dude was part of 4 billion dollar movies in a row, and one of them he headlined and was probably the most profitable marvel film (because in the american box office, Disney gets a bigger cut vs overseas).

Yup.
They would have had to cut him a huge check. Probably why they're so eager to kill the character off, make him an interchangeable mantle and promote the setting as a draw.
And now with Varients being "accepted" by the audience the Studio has more power than ever in negotiations

I’m loving these skins. I just completed the main campaign for avengers today. Now all there’s left to do is wait a couple more weeks.
