Marvel fanboy Michael V. can barely stop himself from giggling and shaking when he sees the Iron Man actor in the flesh, Robert Downey Jr.!

Comic book fanatic Michael V. was recently featured in Marvel Philippines’ official Facebook page. He was invited along with the biggest Marvel fans from Southeast Asia to try experiencing the Marvel films through virtual reality.

During an interview for the feature, just before Bitoy put on his VR gear, the veteran comedian admitted, “I was a long time Marvel comic fan. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is the cherry on top.”

What the Bubble Gang star and his companions thought was a Virtual Reality experience was actually just a ploy. Hiding behind the curtain before them was no less than Iron Man himself, Robert Downey Jr.

The fans were then asked to remove their VR gear, and to their surprise, The Avengers: Infinity War actor was standing right in front of them!

Fanboy Michael V. couldn’t stop shaking when he was hugged by Robert Downey Jr.

In the same video, Michael V. also gave a shoutout to his fellow Pinoy Marvel fans. “Mga Pinoys, ‘wag niyong kalimutan ito na yata ang pinakamagandang pelikula sa buong universe. The Avengers: Infinity War. Go watch it!”

 

Michael V. was also part of a special press preview of The Avengers: Infinity War in Singapore.
