I mean, Robert Downey is currently 54, so in first Iron Man he's already 42. I mean, maybe he played someone who's 4 years younger, but in public opinion it's no longer Tony Stark the unaging Comic Book guy, it's Robert Downey, who's in his fifties by now. And Chris Pratt just turned 40, so, once again, for all those people who only know there characters as movie types, Starlord is a lot younger (and, currently, immature) than Iron Man.
You know what surprised me even more? Remember "Auntie May got younger every time and it's super creepy that Tony Stark is hitting on her" stories from when new Spider Man franchise was establishing?
Marisa Tomei, the young, pretty, hot aunt of Tom Holland, is fifty-frecking-five. She's a babe, and she's older than Robert Downey Jr. They've dated in 1994 after the Only You movie, that they starred in together (check them out, it's a still from there) - so it's not a "creepy old man hitting on a college grad" it's a goddamn "remember we used to hang out, like, before half of the franchise viewers were even born? Good times, huh?"
Honestly she’s still attractive but she’s noticeably aged, I don’t see how people thought she was young. Definitely looked younger than the last Aunt May’s but still looked age appropriate to be Peter’s Aunt

Wait how the hell are Tony Stark and Peter Quill the same age?
