Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man 3 received praise for its performances, but there was one actress whom fans would have loved to see more. Godzilla x Kong actress Rebecca Hall played Maya Hansen in the film, who had nothing much to offer in the storyline of the film. Interestingly, Hall initially had a more meaty role in the film as a villain, however, the character was later decided to be killed off towards the beginning of the third act of the film.
