“I signed on to do something that was a substantial role. She wasn’t entirely the villain – there have been several phases of this – but I signed on to do something very different to what I ended up doing. Halfway through shooting they were basically like, ‘What would you think if you just got shot out of nowhere?’ I was meant to be in the movie until the end… I grappled with them for a while and then I said, ‘Well, you have to give me a decent death scene and you have to give me one more scene with Iron Man,’ which Robert Downey Jr. supported me on.”

Yeah, I can definitely see that. Her character didn't really go anywhere, and her death seemed so out of nowhere. I felt like she was built up to be a much bigger character at the beginning of the movie...

*sigh* I wish we could get an Iron Man 4 as a proper conclusion. Maybe we'll get it after Infinity War. Rob's been playing the character a long time across many movies, he deserves a good send off.
