Kevin Feige on Robert Downey Jr."s MCU ComebackSpeaking with Entertainment Tonight (ET) at the red carpet world premiere event for The Marvels in Las Vegas, Nevada, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige addressed recent rumors about Robert Downey Jr. potentially returning to the MCU as Iron Man.
When asked about a recent rumor indicating that "some fallen Avengers could make their return" in an upcoming Avengers movie, Feige coyly noted that he hadn"t heard about the rumor::

ET: "One specific thing I want to ask you that was in the headlines is this idea that some fallen Avengers could make their return, anything you can say about that? I know the answer…"
Feige: "No? Is that the answer?"
ET: "Yeah?"
Feige: "Hmm….fallen Avengers returning. I literally have not even seen that, is that a new rumor?"
ET: "Yeah, it was, like, one of the things that was talked about at this retreat where Scarlett Johansson and Robert Downey Jr. were possibly returning at some point."

Feige bluntly admitted that this topic did not come up at the retreat, calling Downey "part of the family" while telling fans "we"ll have to see" in terms of his MCU return becoming a reality:

"We did not discuss that at the retreat. It’s the truth. We’re doing a project with Scarlett, we love Robert, he’s a part of the family. But in terms of returning? We’ll have to see."

This comes mere days after a report from Variety indicated that Marvel was considering bringing Downey back for another appearance as Tony Stark, although nothing is confirmed at this point.
