And they have big ideas of how to do it best and we’re in the middle of negotiation…”After Ellen DeGeneres prompts him for a true answer, the actor finally gives in and says what everyone has wanted to hear:”Okay, yes!”

An Iron Man 4 fan trailer sees Tom Holland’s Spider-Man and Morgan Stark team up to bring Tony Stark back to life.
