Doctor Strange: 7 Tony Stark Cameos That Would Rule

1. He Appears Purely For The Sherlock Joke

Ok, this would be a ridiculous joke to try and pull off, but if anyone has the confidence to attempt it, it's Marvel, and in particular RDJ.

This could still be a way of tying Strange into the wider MCU and setting him up for an appearance in Avengers: Infinity War, but also one that heavily plays on the fact that both men are current incarnations of Sherlock Holmes.

All it would take is the pair sitting next to each other in a bar, one of them saying something, and then the other replying "No sh*t..." It's the kind of throwaway mid-credits gag Marvel like, and one that fits in with the building towards the next major team-up (Stark could even mention the Avengers, and wanting Strange to join, which elicits the jokey response). They might not attempt it, but it's fun (albeit, as mentioned, ridiculous) to think about.

How do you think Tony Stark could feature in Doctor Strange? Would you rather he didn't? Share your thoughts down in the comments.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
