I agree with your conclusion that they should have taken the chance with an unknown Romani actor. I'm just going to put some nuances on the idea that RDJ was "barely known" and that "The MCU made him a star". It's partially true, but the reality is more complex. RDJ had previously (before his downfall) proven that he had the chops to be a lead actor (he already had won several prestigious awards and had been nominated for an Academy Award). He played alongside several A-list actors as a co-star. I think in terms of fame, he would have been a B+ to A(minus) star for a while, heading up towards a straight-up A-list before his addiction caught up to him for a time. So the MCU did make him a star after he had already been on his way to becoming one previously. They took a risk because of his past, not because he was an unknown.

Yeah, I had an idea it was more complicated than that, but I didn't care enough to look up all the details just for an F!S comment! Thank you for breaking them down so I didn't have to.
