In Iron Man 2, Tony tells Pepper to wear a surgical mask because she's sick. This is an ad-libbed line made up by Robert Downey Jr. on the spot because, in this scene, Gwyneth Paltrow was actually sick.
In Iron Man 3, Pepper Potts is kidnapped by Aldrich Killian, who takes her hostage and injects her with the Extremis as part of his scheme to get revenge on Stark. She later uses her Extremis powers to kill Killian before Stark funds a surgery to cure her of Extremis.
She had sizable roles in “Iron Man 2” and “Iron Man 3,” and she also appeared as Pepper in other MCU films such as “Spider-Man: Homecoming” (which she infamously forgot about) and “Avengers: Endgame.” The latter film marked her final MCU appearance for now.
The "Civil War" crew explain on the "Captain America: Civil War" commentary there's a logical reason Ms. Potts doesn't physically appear in the film (and no, it's not just that Paltrow had a three-film contract with Marvel). Her presence would have never enabled Stark to take the direction they needed in "Civil War."
What roles has Rachel McAdams turned down? McAdams was initially offered the role of Pepper Potts in 'Iron Man', a role that subsequently went to 'Goop' creator Gwyneth Paltrow. The 'Red Eye' actress has previous Marvel Cinematic Universe experience, with her role as Dr.
Rachel McAdams was director Jon Favreau's first choice to play Tony Stark's assistant and love interest, Pepper Potts, but she turned the part down. After Robert Downey Jr. was cast as Stark, Gwyneth Paltrow signed on to play Pepper, and the film went on to become a massive success.
She was freed by Stark during the Battle on the Norco and went on to kill Killian herself. Stark cured her of the effects of Extremis, who temporarily gave up being Iron Man just for her. As the War on HYDRA began, the Avengers needed to be remobilized.
Pepper Potts has killed two people in her time as a superhero-adjacent character. She killed Iron Monger in the first Iron Man, and Aldrich Killian in Iron Man 3. Iron Man, however, has only killed one person on screen since his time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe began in 2008: Ebony Maw in Avengers: Infinity War.
While she did not answer if she misses RDJ, she did suggest that the fan in question “Call up Marvel and yell at them.” Paltrow hasn't completely shut the door on a return in the past, however, it is entirely unlikely we'll see her as Potts again.
Robert Downey Jr. confirmed that Iron Man 4 is indeed in the works. While negotiations continue for his return, this would mark his 7th appearance in a standalone Marvel movie and his 9th outing as Tony Stark in total. Disclaimer Statement: This content is authored by a 3rd party.
Thirteen years later, Stark is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and has frequent panic attacks due to his experiences during the alien invasion of New York. He has built dozens of new Iron Man suits to cope with his insomnia, creating friction with his girlfriend Pepper Potts.
Stark still employs the scientific method to do this (as he does in Age of Ultron creating Ultron), so he probably had some remnants of Extremis in his lab so as not to cause Pepper to explode or anything. When he discovers the cure, he cures Pepper, but then decides to get his arc reactor removed.
During their one scene together in Avengers 3, Tony detailed a nightmare he had about Pepper being pregnant, but she assured him there was no child on the way. Savvy viewers interpreted this exchange as a bit of foreshadowing for a twist being saved for Avengers 4.
Their relationship grew throughout the early MCU, culminating in an official romance beginning in Iron Man 2 and staying consistent throughout, aside from a brief split around Civil War. While their devotion can never be questioned, there are standout moments that show just how much Pepper loves Tony.
In Iron Man 2, Tony Stark, suffering from heavy metal poisoning from the arc reactor in his chest, misses a solution that could save him - or could at least stave off further poisoning - in a plot hole that is explored within the same film.
However, after it wrapped up in 2019, Paltrow has yet to be seen in the MCU, sparking questions from the fans. Addressing the question of why she left the MCU, Paltrow offers a blunt answer on Instagram. She cites that after Iron Man's death in Avengers: Endgame, Pepper is supposedly no longer needed in the franchise.
Pepper Potts: The last we heard from Pepper, she was berating Tony for abandoning her to fight evil — again. But a recent poster for Avengers: Endgame that showed everyone who is alive and dead confirmed that she did, indeed survive the culling.
The Battle of New York, his mental health struggles, and almost losing Pepper Potts during the Battle on the Norco in Iron Man 3 led Tony Stark to decide to destroy all of his armors in order to spend more time with Pepper and show her the suits weren't a distraction from her and what's really important, as she used to ...
