Fans remember the emotional death of Iron Man in “Avengers: Endgame.” Thanos throws Tony Stark away and says “I am inevitable.” He snaps his fingers, but nothing happens because Stark has taken the stones. With his suit, he uses the stones to overcome Thanos. Stark said, ”And I am Iron Man.” With a snap of his fingers, we see enemies, including Thanos, vanish into ashes. 

The scenario appears to be cheerful, so it might be considered a nice conclusion. But after the snap, you see Stark, not Iron Man, weak, lifeless and shattered by the snap. After rescuing the world, it felt like it was simply a side effect and emotional condition. 

This disappointed many Iron Man fans, including myself. But like many other Marvel fans, I am curious to see what happens following Stark’s death.  

Iron Man was an important component of the Marvel Universe, and the movies have not changed since his death. But everything must end at some point. 

Now Marvel has post-Iron Man plans. Following the events of Endgame, Marvel had announced Phase Three films and moves to a new hero plan. 

In “Spiderman: Far from Home,” Peter Parker is broken because of Stark’s death. In the final moments of Iron Man’s life, an emotional contact occurs between Parker and Iron Man. Spiderman appears to be carrying on the Iron Man legacy, which is not surprising because Parker was Stark’s closest friend.

Stark was rumored to make a cameo appearance in the Black Widow film, but the scene was deleted for a good reason. Black Widow was the first superheroine in Marvel to get her own film, allowing her to be seen outside of the Avengers. However, if Stark makes an appearance, he has the potential to steal the show. 

A new era of heroes are preparing to take over the Marvel universe in the near future. “Eternals,” “Spiderman: No way home,” “Black Panther 2,” “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” and many more are on the way. 

Even though it’s difficult to let go of Iron Man, the new list of movies coming from Marvel seem to be interesting and still have the quality that makes Marvel great.
