Robert Downey Jr., in 2013, supported the cast of “Avengers” when Marvel Studio threatened to sack them from their other projects. 

The cast of “Avengers” had a disagreement with the Marvel Studios when “Age of Ultron” was being filmed. It was reported that Downey Jr mediated between the two parties to sort out the dispute. 

 

The dispute occurred when Marvel Studios was tied up with the making of “Avengers: Age of Ultron.” The cast members were dissatisfied as they believed that they should get a higher salary and reportedly asked for a raise. 

 

However, things went wrong and there was a bitter dispute between the two sides. At that time, many cast members warned the studio that they would quit the project. It was then that the actor stepped in and supported his cast members. 

 

A news portal had reported back then that the cast members attempted to revise their contracts with the studios. The same outlet also insisted that even the “Sherlock Holmes” star wanted a raise in the salaries. The actor had confessed in a chat show that he was trying to negotiate the terms. 

 

There have been reports that claimed that while the “Iron Man” actor got around $50 million as his salary, some of his fellow cast members got $200,000 for acting in “Avengers.” The huge difference between the actors’ salaries created a lot of hostility between them. 

 

There have been reports of Marvel warning to recast or sue the disgruntled cast members in case the latter challenged them. At that time, the cast allegedly told the studio to “Go Ahead.”

 

Even Chris Hemsworth was reportedly unhappy with the treatment and was contemplating not to work in some of the upcoming “Thor” movies. Robert Downey Jr supported his cast members and discussed the issue with the studio. It is said that the actor reportedly stated that he will leave and is not interested to work for an organization, which does not treat his co-workers well, Republic World reports. 

 

In other news, Chris Evans is quite fond of Downey Jr and has referred to him as a “very affable guy.” The two actors have worked together for quite some time now and share a great rapport.

 

Evans admitted that it is easy to be with Downey as he is an extremely amiable person. The actor praised Robert Downey Jr and said that the actor understands that when one person succeeds the entire team will succeed Daijiworld.com reports.
