This year marks ten years since the first Iron Man movie was released, kicking off the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Fans may remember a more selfish, womanising Tony Stark who has since grown and developed over his seven movie-run as the character thus far.
However Joe Robert Cole, who co-wrote the latest Marvel outing Black Panther with director Ryan Coogler, has slammed the character as originally portrayed and asked if Iron Man would be acceptable by audiences today.
According to NME, he said: “Think about where we are now, with this very vapid, unintelligent president and our world is crackling on the edges because of that.”
Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, he said: “This is a heads-will-roll scenario.”
Avengers Infinity War will be released in UK cinemas on April 26, 2018.
