‘Avengers: Endgame’: Robert Downey Jr. Responds To NASA Offering To Rescue Tony Stark

When the first official teaser trailer for Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame finally dropped, viewers were first re-introduced to Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) following the events of Avengers: Infinity War. Tony is shown alone in a ship four days after he witnessed much of his allies turn to dust along with 50% of all living creatures as well. Now, Tony is stranded in space with no food and water and minimal oxygen left.

With him in need of a rescue mission, NASA itself expressed their “interest” in helping out in a rescue mission for Tony. Now, Robert Downey Jr. is expressing his own gratitude to NASA for their offer:

Within a few months from now, we will finally learn about how Tony ends up surviving and likely returning to Earth to help with his surviving Avengers reverse the decimation that Thanos (Josh Brolin) inflicted upon the universe. Whether or not NASA will actually be involved in that narrative remains a mystery.

Here is a tentative synopsis for Avengers: Endgame:
