Jr NTR has been nothing less than a superhero for his fans. After the global success of RRR and a thunderous response to his latest release, Devara, the burning question is whether he would love to explore opportunities in Hollywood.
Jr NTR is a Marvel fan!
In a recent interview, Jr NTR said he would be willing to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Calling Iron Man his favourite character, the actor spoke about the impact Robert Downey Jr’s performance has had on him.
Jr NTR told in an interview with Associated Press, “I’ve always said that I’d love being a part of the Marvel world, because Marvel, for me, is very special. Iron Man is definitely one of my favourite characters, because you don’t need to have super powers, you don’t need to be god to have powers, you know, he is just a human being.
