It was back in 2008 that Hollywood actor Robert Downey Jr. starred in the “Iron Man” — the movie that got the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) rolling. He might not return to MCU after their forthcoming film “Avengers: Endgame“, but all he has to say is “don’t give up, keep going”.
Sporting a black suit with chic boots, RDJ hit the stage here on Monday along with his “Avengers: Endgame” co-stars Brie Larson and Jeremy Renner as well as directors Joe and Anthony Russo and Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige amidst thousands of young fans dressed up as Marvel superheroes like Iron Man and Captain America.

“This is nuts,” Downey Jr. said looking at his admirers.
Ahead of the event, fans in Seoul were asked to write down what they would like to hear from the Avengers team. The three actors picked one message each and read out on Monday.
RDJ picked: “Don’t give up. Keep going.”
This made many people emotional as it comes amidst rumours about his exit from MCU.
On being a team, Feige said: “Everyday feels like a team. There are moments in ‘…Endgame where we are all together led by Robert Downey Jr. who has been the leader of the team for 10 years. Whenever he is on set, we feel like the Avengers.”
Downey Jr. also joked about going around various Korean theatres in disguise after the film hits the screens later this month.
