Seriously, there’s gonna be a major spoiler in the first sentence of this article–don’t say I didn’t warn you. Let’s cut right to the chase: we all cried when Iron Man died at the end of Avengers: End Game . And if you didn’t, you definitely heard a few sniffles in your theater from the people who did. The death of the man who kicked off the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe is devastating enough on its own, but it’s been made even more emotional for fans as they remember today, May 2, is the 11 year anniversary of Iron Man’s release.
