His remarkable comeback came in 2008 when he portrayed Tony Stark/Iron Man in Marvel's "Iron Man," a role that transformed him into a global superstar and became the cornerstone of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He subsequently starred in numerous blockbuster films including "The Avengers" series, earning over $14 billion at the global box office.
