In the "Invincible Iron Man" series, a familiar character was introduced as part of its regular supporting cast. Does Mary Jane Watson ring a bell?
According to Newsarama, the well-loved "Spiderman" character shall be introduced in "Invincible Iron Man #4" in territories very new to both Tony Stark and Mary Jane. Does this imply a romantic relationship between the two, especially that MJ has broken up with Spidey? "Invincible Iron Man #4" will be out this December.
Brian Michael Bendis shared that MJ's addition in "Iron Man" wasn't random at all. Bendis shared that Tony Starks and MJ actually know each other. "She used to live in Avengers Tower. But that's all I'm going to say for now because what kind of relationship they end up having is a big part of what I would like people to buy the book for."
Interestingly enough, will this new storyline be adapted in "Iron Man 4?" Master Herald shares that there's nothing absolutely concrete yet about the movie, and the one sure thing about it is that it will be part of phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. At this point, MCU adapting this fresh development on the "Invincible Iron Man" series is all pure speculation.
However, their speculation might be grounded on MCU's acquisition of the "Spider-man" character. According to Screenrant, Spider-man is set to first appear on "Captain America: Civil War" in 2016 and is being set up to lead The Avengers in the future. Nineteen-year old Tom Holland has been picked to play the coveted role.
Meanwhile, "Iron Man 4" release date has been rumored to be delayed due to Robert Downey Jr.'s salary increase demands. Venture Capital Post mentions that negotiations between Marvel and RDJ have been going on longer than the usual.
