Robert Downey Jr also admitted that kissing Gwyneth Paltrow was one of the weirdest moments in their friendship, as Gwyneth did not like how he kissed her. The Iron Man actor said, “First of all, we’re all friends, so what would be creepy is if I was coming off all sexy to you while we were shooting – which, by the way, I’ve done that in movies, and it creeps them out! So why would I creep you out?’”
As their friendship grew within the expanding universe of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, fans called them one of the strongest on-screen MCU pairings. They have been featured in many MCU movies, such as Iron Man, Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming, and were last seen in Avengers: End Game.
