Talking about this, he said, “Well certainly, this one felt more intimidating. ‘Cause at least with ‘Avengers, assemble’ no one had done it before. But with this one, you feel kind of like you’re wearing someone else’s clothes or something. You know that someone else has kind of put their stamp on it. It’s an iconic line because someone else made it iconic. So, I was honored to say this line, I mean it’s a line that meant a lot to me, and you get goosebumps every time you do it. But you also understand that it belongs to someone else and it always will. So, you really wanna make sure you respect that.”
