Note: the guy who played Tony's dad in this movie is the same actor who played his father in Iron Man 2. Maria took me by surprise, though. I was expecting someone younger, a little less... starched, and--for some reason, maybe because her name is Maria?--darker.
Huh. I've been watching Agent Carter so assumed the young!Howard from that (who's also the young!Howard in Captain America the first moviw) was the one they used all the time (esp since he looks SO MUCH like RDJ), but IMDb confirms that they've been using 2 different actors for older!Howard and younger!Howard.
I had less articulation for why Maria felt off but yes, definitely agreed that I didn't like that choice either. musesfool commented, "As happy as I was to finally see Maria Stark, I have a hard time believing two such WASPy people produced Tony; Dominic Cooper is much more believable as Tony's progenitor."
