While promoting his latest film, 2 GUNS, Mark Wahlberg mentioned the one role he’d love to play if he got the chance: Iron Man!

The actor said he would love to take over the role after Robert Downey Jr. retires the suit, but is afraid it will likely never happen. “It’s one of those things where I kind of like playing real people, [so] I’ve never been asked,” he explained.

While Wahlberg may be best known for playing real people, it’s a little known fact that he was once strongly considered for the role of Robin in BATMAN FOREVER, which would have led to reprising the role for BATMAN AND ROBIN. “Once I was kind of being talked about for the Robin role in BATMAN. Somebody dodged a bullet!” he joked, alluding to the fact that BATMAN AND ROBIN was a commercial and critical flop.

Sadly, currently there is no sign of Wahlberg jumping into the Iron Man suit, but we can dream! Who would you love to see don the Iron Man suit after Robert Downey Jr. retires?
