In a fan Q&A, Gwyneth Paltrow discussed the possibility of her returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and provided updates on her friendship with Robert Downey Jr. She addressed rumors about reprising her character, Pepper Potts, and explained the frequency of their communication. Her comments offer a glimpse into the secrecy surrounding Marvel and its ongoing developments within the franchise.

Gwyneth Paltrow thinks Pepper ‘might’ return in MCU

Gwyneth Paltrow addressed some fan queries on Instagram about her potential return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Pepper Potts. She admitted, “To be honest, I’m not completely certain.” She added, “I think there might be a chance, but it’s not definite yet. As of now, nothing is officially confirmed. That’s the reality, that’s the latest news.

As a devoted fan, I’ve had the privilege of bringing Pepper Potts to life on the big screen in several Marvel Cinematic Universe films. These include Iron Man back in 2008, its sequel Iron Man 2 in 2010, The Avengers in 2012, Iron Man 3 in 2013, Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017, and most recently, Avengers: Infinity War in 2018. But let’s not forget the epic finale, Avengers: Endgame (2019), where I stepped into the role once more.

In an interview with Vanity Fair, she hinted at a potential comeback, stating, “Perhaps… we’ll have to wait and see. I’m not sure, as they maintain a lot of secrecy.” She also mentioned that her appearance in Spider-Man: Homecoming came as a surprise due to Marvel’s secretive nature. Paltrow has admitted that she hasn’t been following the MCU films closely and confirmed she was not part of Captain America: Brave New World.

As a die-hard gamer, I’m super pumped to share some exciting news! Iron Man himself, Robert Downey Jr., is coming back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday. This epic showdown is set for release on May 1, 2026. And

Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr. ‘talk a lot’

A fan inquired if Gwyneth Paltrow still frequently communicates with Robert Downey Jr., to which she replied, “Not daily, but we have many conversations. By the way, did you know his birthday is on April 4? I’m likely going to give him a call on that day.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr., who have starred together in numerous Marvel movies, first appeared on screen as Tony Stark and Pepper Potts way back in 2008 with Iron Man. Their long-standing chemistry may find continuation if Downey’s upcoming MCU character, Doctor Doom, leads to interactions with Paltrow’s character, although no such collaboration has been officially announced yet.
