A deleted scene from Iron Man's Avengers: Endgame death was, it wrapped up his whole narrative in a poetic way. While Marvel Studios did a great job fleshing out Stark in his 11-year stint in the universe, one of the best scenes that could have effectively set up his storyline ended up on the editing room floor.
In a Iron Man’s creation of Ultron, his intentions were always good, and were all aimed towards his hopes of leaving a good legacy behind.
Why Iron Man's Endgame Death Was Perfect
ittedly, not everyone was happy with Iron Man's Avengers: Endgame death. It came at the worst time when he finally had something to live for with his wife, Pepper (Gwyneth Paltrow), and daughter, Morgan (Lexi Rabe), but it's also why his sacrifice was so meaningful. It highlights just how much he had changed since the events of Iron Man. For more than a decade, Marvel Studios tackled Stark's character development, which wasn't a walk in the park. He suffered a lot of setbacks and committed many mistakes along the way - but in the end, he proved just how much he was committed to doing good by sacrificing his life to ensure the universe's safety, precisely because of how much he had to lose.
Can Iron Man Return To The MCU?
Currently, Iron Man is dead in the MCU, but it doesn't mean that he can never come back. There are several ways to make Stark’s return to the franchise possible. The introduction of the multiverse and the existence of variants make it easier to do this. Besides that, the MCU has also found ways to undo multiple deaths over the years to serve its storytelling. Given this precedence, they can surely find a way to bring back Iron Man to the franchise if a narrative needs his presence. For now, however, it may not be in the cards just yet. According to Spider-Man: No Way Home writers Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, resurrecting the character is currently a non-starter over at Marvel Studios.
Marvel Studios may not be keen on bringing back Stark now that the MCU is moving forward with Ironheart. Beyond that, his whole arc - from his origins in Iron Man to his end in Avengers: Endgame - is the gold standard when developing the next generation of heroes in the franchise.
