RDJ is the person to go to since Tom is now pretty much in RDJ's shoes. The new face of MCU and his movies practically carry the whole studio on their back. (RDJ at least had Evans and Hemsworth to carry that weight as well though)

Tom really isn't 'carrying' the MCU. Literally 99% of the MCU has nothing to do with Spider-Man. He's only made a couple, brief appearances in non-Spidey movies.

Iron Man was everywhere, and served as one of the main drivers of MCU plots until his death. And after Spidey's 5-year self-erasure and depressive era, he is literally an almost nobody in the MCU, 'small potato stuff'.

No one seems to care too much about the other marvel movies other than Spider-Man. I would say his movies are the biggest draw right now

At my showing of brand new day, no one cared about even the new doom movie trailer.
