Javon Walton in an Iron Man reboot? We need it and we need it now.
Javon Walton has revealed that he would love to star in the MCU and play a young Tony Stark in a new Iron Man reboot film.
Javon Walton is an icon, he's a legend and he is the moment. Now, come on now. After wowing viewers with his portrayal of Ashtray in the first two seasons of Euphoria, the 15-year-old actor is now winning over a whole new fanbase as Stanley on The Umbrella Academy. Stanley is introduced at the end of season 3, episode 1 as Diego's son... but is he actually?

Javon previously revealed that he wants to play Robin in a new Batman film, so we asked him if there are any iconic villains that he'd love to portray. Immediately, Javon said: "I wanna play the Joker when I get a little older so bad. I would love to play the Joker, that would a lot of fun. Really any super villain would be super cool to play but mainly the Joker."
We then asked Javon if there are any Marvel films or franchises that he'd love to be a part of and he said: "Maybe in the future, Iron Man or something like that could be really really cool."
When asked if he'd follow in Robert Downey Jr.'s footsteps and play the next Tony Stark in a reboot, he then said: "Yeah."
