Elon Musk’s influence extends beyond the world of technology and business; he has also made an impact on popular culture. The character of Tony Stark, also known as Iron Man, played by Robert Downey Jr. in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, was partially inspired by Musk.
When preparing for the role, Downey Jr. visited SpaceX to meet Musk and learn more about his work and personality. Musk even made a cameo appearance in “Iron Man 2.” The character of Tony Stark, a brilliant and eccentric billionaire inventor, shares many traits with Musk, from his innovative spirit to his ambition to change the world.
