I'd imagine Marvel would sue the crap out of him if it got so bad that he could not work. Would they eventually recast him like they did the Hulk twice for the future Avenger movies?

He's probably done after Avengers 2 anyway. They'll reboot the franchise five years or so after that.

Won't matter. I'm sure the Hollywood producers are already pitching a reboot with younger actors.

Its almost impossible for an actor, making money for studios and producers, to get himself fired these days. Hollywood has no shame.

I think Charlie Sheen had to kill three hookers before he was fired from his TV show and then they just gave him another one.

Downey would have to be completely non mobile not be offered the role.

hell, even Lindsey Lohan is still getting work. Have any of y'all read about how she behaved on the set of The Canyons? That girl is nuts.

Would they reboot the entire Avenger team? He will be over 50 pretty soon.

I was reading Artie Lange's book and he talked about how he was so loaded on coke that he ran away when the producers of Madtv tried to get him to enter rehab. He ending up being cornered in a super market and started throwing fruit at random shoppers. Not only did he get arrested but he was fired. It made me wonder what would happen if it was the star of a major franchise and not just a SNL knock off.

That's a pretty IF though. It's been a while since he's had any drug issues if I remember correctly. Plus he's only got Avengers 2 left which is pretty far in the future.

Tony Stark is not a young character in the Marvel Universe.

If the OP wants to know who they'd think would make a good alternative Iron Man then just ask that IMO.

Downey has had one of the most amazing turn arounds/come back stories.
