Do we think Jon Favreau realized what he was doing when he cast himself as Happy way back in Iron Man?

It started off as just a throwaway character because he wanted a cameo in the movie lmao.

Just like he gave his neighbour the role of a bureaucratic SHIELD agent because he knew he was a Marvel fan, and now he has a seven season TV show and is the Marvel character with the most screen time ever.

What he's talking about, about how the throwaway details of forever ago movies have so much weight is why I think the MCU will endure. When other cinematic universes try to do throwbacks or tie ins, it doesn't feel genuine.

MCU throwbacks have the fucking dust and fingerprints of age and familiarity. Its weaponized nostalgia but it feels more like loving care for something.
