The Variety article also states that Joe and Anthony are being paid 80 million for the two films as well. If we low ball it and presume Downey is being paid $100 million dollars for both films, then the budgets for these films is already at least 90 million each in above the line talent costs.
I mean the last set of Avenger films were the most expensive film films ever until Avatar 2 came along. I think we can safely assume this set of films will be the most set of films possibly by far when released.

It'll be a crazy budget, but I guess you can invest that much when the expected box office will be north of $3 billion for each movie.
 
Take this with a grain of salt, but they are apparently rumors that Marvel wants to cast Tom Cruise as a multiverse variant of Iron Man. That would be an interesting contrast to RDJ coming back as Doctor Doom.

Tom Cruise was the original pick to play Iron Man before Jon Favreau convinced Marvel to go with RDJ so I wouldn't be surprised if he's included as a cameo, similar to one of the cameos in DP&W. A character who essentially died before they were born.
