'Captain America: Civil War' Star Robert Downey Jr. Surprises Food Truck Employees

Robert Downey Jr. made some of his fans’ day by showing up unexpectedly on their food truck. Several pictures captured the moment and Twitter exchanges showed how happy the food truck employees were over the incident.

E Online reported that “Captain America: Civil War” star Downey made some of his fans happy earlier this week. The “Iron Man” visited the Blaxican food truck in Atlanta and ordered some food, much to the surprise of the employees there. This is why they cannot help but takes some selfies with the actor. The Blaxican Twitter and Facebook pages featured some of these pictures, wherein it can be seen that the actor has some red scrapes all over his face and a black eye. Presumably, these “injuries” are part of some of his scenes for the movie “Captain America: Civil War,” which is filming on the city. According to the employees who were fortunate enough to have met the actor that day, Downey was cool.

The food truck owner William Turner tweeted that Downey was first ever celebrity who graced his truck. He said the whole experience made his day. The gushing did not end there because Downey himself shared the Twitter post on Friday, thanking the owner for the food. He even joked that the scrapes on his face were from having to fight just to get into the front of the line. Turner immediately replied to this compliment. "Ur welcome, maybe we can do Chef Part 2, 'The Blaxican' then I can payoff da man!" Turner wrote.

Earlier, Downey Jr. shared how he was convinced to sign for this Marvel movie. He shared that he was convinced to join the third "Captain America” film and to make a major crossover event from Marvel comics happen because he was made to feel “needed.” He also said he wanted to see the two franchises team up. Speaking with Empire magazine, Downey Jr., he said, "I look at it as a competition and I go, ‘Wow, maybe if these two franchises teamed up and I can take even a lesser position, with people I like and directors I respect, maybe we can keep things bumping along.”
