Leading a billion-dollar global franchise for 11 years is no joke, that's why Marvel Cinematic Universe patriarch Robert Downey Jr. is truly worthy of the title "legend" and now, he can officially call himself that.

Congratulations 3000 are in order for the Iron Man actor who was awarded the Disney Legends honor, a recognition given to individuals who have extraordinary contributions to The Walt Disney Company.

RDJ accepted the award during #D23Expo. Also present during the awarding ceremony were his good buddy and Marvel co-star Jon Favreau and actress Ming-Na Wen who's famous for voicing Mulan in Disney's animated films.
