John Stamos, who voices Iron Man for Spidey & His Amazing Friends, explains how his version of the Marvel hero is different from RDJ's: 'It took me a minute, but I think I found my version.'
Spidey & His Amazing Friends' John Stamos explains how his Iron Man stands apart from Robert Downey Jr.'s. The new animated iteration of Iron Man comes three years after the last cinematic appearance of Robert Downey Jr. as the character in 2019's Avengers Endgame. As Tony Stark, Downey shook up the superhero scene with 2008's Iron Man, and immediately made the character a fan favorite thanks to his charisma, fast-talking sarcasm, and reliable quips.
"I kind of came in thinking, "I'll do something like Robert." And they're like, "Don't do that. Don't do that." It was interesting, because they're all kids! I'm coming in as a mentor, for sure, but also kind of the adult character. So, it took me a minute, but I think I found my version. They have these voice directors that are so great, like Kelly Ward. I said, "Kelly, what are we doing? It doesn't feel like Iron Man." But he said, "This is you. This is your Iron Man. You don't have to do a lot, because it's in the character and in the legacy." And I wanted to be respectful, for sure. I asked the Marvel guys there, "Am I in the right world?" and they said, "Yeah, it's perfect for this." It's a different version.
