Tom Cruise thought Iron Man wouldn't work but The Mummy would. 😂

[JCaylor]

Tom Cruise was right though. Without RDJ Iron Man wouldnt have worked

[RONNIE]

I'm Daniel Craig.... as THOR! WHO THE HELL THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA

[IronPatriot]

Tom Cruise would have Iron Man running across Manhattan to reach his suit.

[FoolishLemur]

Daniel Craig as Thor is like Nicolas Cage as superman

[WaffleBunBuns]

Rachel McAdams plays Christine Palmer in Doctor strange

[mikehawk]

I can’t lie Matthew McConaughey would have killed it as ego

[yankeedpm]

Joaquin Phenix as Doctor Strange.? I luv Benedict, but this could actually work🤓🤔

I literally cannot think of a single movie where Jason Mamoa was in full-body paint. Because he's never done one.

Tom Cruise's schedule was crazy at the time, he just kept filming one project after another. I'm sure he would've done a rush job on the movie, so I'm glad that RDJ got the role. RDJ had plenty of time on his hands considering that Iron Man became his redemption film.

Daniel Craig as Thor … the way I’m holding this gigantic laugh inside because it’s 4 am in the morning

[HufflepuffBaseball]

Tom Cruise would’ve had them build a real iron man suit

[WildBerrie]

Kurt Russel as Ego is such good casting

[tvdforever]

Even Tom Cruise is glad he didn't play as Iron Man. He admitted that no one could've played that character better than RDJ.

[MagicMonkey]

Daniel Craig only turned down Thor to focus on James Bond iirc, I bet he would accept a role now

[Books_with_me]

I am happy they all said no because if they didn’t say no our marvel movies would not be the same without our original cast

[dawntaylor]

So glad they all passed these roles up

[TheinfinityB]

Nah i cannot imagine Daniel Craig as Thor

[SICK_ICON]

Can't even imagine Daniel craig as Thor but Chris Hemsworth can easily play James bond

[pinktastic]

No way they considered Daniel Craig for Thor because he's not over 6'3. They only talked to actors over 6'3 and he's maybe 5'9.
