MCU Stars Wish Robert Downey Jr. a Happy Birthday

As Robert Downey Jr. celebrated his 55th birthday this weekend in Los Angeles, the social media highways and biways flooded with well wishes and warm sentiments from many of his MCU co-stars - including Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, and Gwyneth Paltrow. Marvel's Black Widow may have been delayed until November, taking The Eternals' premiere date, but the Avengers aren't about to skip a chance to assemble. Here's a quick look at the precious posts from some of the coolest characters in Tony Stark's life...

As Black Widow gets shifted to November, The Eternals has been moved to Feb. 12, 2021 (which was Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' spot). Shang-Chi now takes the May 7, 2021, date that had belonged to Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Multiverse now moves to Nov. 5, 2021, which bumps Thor: Love And Thunder to Feb. 28, 2022. Black Panther 2 remains scheduled for May 8, 2022, though Captain Marvel 2 has been bumped ahead two weeks to July 8, 2022. No word yet on the new dates, if any, for the Phase 4 Disney + shows. Last heard, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was still on track for August, though its production shut down back at the beginning of March so it stands to reason that series will get postponed.
