Endgame BTS Photo Shows Tony & Pepper In Hospital After Iron Man's Rescue
A brand new Avengers: Endgame behind-the-scenes image shows Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) and Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) after Iron Man's rescue from space. The second-year anniversary of the Joe and Anthony Russo-directed MCU flick is approaching, making fans nostalgic about it.

Fortunately, Captain Marvel (Brie Larson) was able to save them. At that point, however, he was severely malnourished and needed immediate medical treatment.
