00:00Did you know that in Iron Man 3 this scene proves that the special effects in the older
00:03Marvel films are much better than the current ones? Do you remember when Tony Stark threw
00:07the arc reactor into the ocean? But what if I told you that? In that scene, it wasn't
00:11Robert Downey Jr.? During the filming of the movie, the actors suffered an ankle injury
00:14that kept him off set for 6 weeks. Since they were already in the final stages of filming,
00:18Marvel didn't want to lose that time. So, they decided to hire a stunt double who looked
00:22very similar to Robert to shoot the remaining scenes and then use CGI to add the actor's
00:26face later. However, one of those scenes was the final one of the movie. And if you pay
00:30close attention, Tony Stark doesn't speak at any moment, as the entire sequence is narrated.
00:34This most likely happened so the special effects team wouldn't have too much work in post-production.
00:38Literally, because if Tony spoke, his mouth would move in a strange way.
00:41Just like Henry Cavill's face in Justice League.
