From all accounts, many of the various stars of the Marvel Cinematic Universe have become good friends in real life. A great deal of that may have taken place during the production of Captain America: Civil War as Robert Downey Jr apparently invited much of the cast to lunch, though Sebastian Stan didn’t get an early invite for… reasons.
A clip from the press conference back when Captain America: Civil War was released has recently gone viral on Instagram, which includes members of the cast discussing that Robert Downey Jr. would occasionally invite other members of the cast to lunch. Downey apparently had a very nice trailer set up, which Anthony Mackie says made the invite very coveted, and he was jealous when Daniel Brühl got the call. Mackie said…
That’s everybody’s goal every day, is that lunch. And you get so jealous. Like the day he was invited, I see him go by my trailer, I’m like, ‘motherfucker!’ Robert introduced me to quinoa. I was like, ‘What are these little marbles I’m putting in my mouth?’ ‘That’s quinoa.’
