The youngest star of the Marvel blockbuster “Avengers: Endgame” is speaking out against bullies — after an irate adult fan recently targeted her and her family.

Lexi Rabe, 7, who played Tony Stark’s daughter Morgan in the box office hit, posted the video message to her Instagram page last week.

“I’m only 7 years old,” the girl said. “I’m upset sometimes, so my mom and dad give me tons of talking-tos and time outs, believe me.”

“If I go anywhere and I’m acting a little silly or messed up or anything like that … I’m just 7 years old,” she continued. “Please don’t bully my family. Or me.”

Lexi signed off with a line from “Endgame”: “Bye, love you 3,000.”

The girl was with her family in a Los Angeles mall when someone got miffed that they weren’t able to speak with her, Lexi said during a “Good Morning America” appearance with her mom, Jessica.

“So somebody recognized me, and I was just, like, playing with my brother,” the girl said. “And they said you need to train your girl how to [act in public].”

The flustered fan sent the family a message on social media, Jessica said on the program.

“Online we got a message that she was acting out in public,” she said. “Meanwhile, we were trying to get stuff ready for a premiere we were going to, and we were tired and we were sick … I guess this woman was upset that she didn’t get to come up to us and talk to us, because we were tired and we weren’t in a great mood. If she would have come up to us, we would have said, ‘Hello.’ But she didn’t.”

“I don’t know why you need to get mad at us because we’re not available,” she added. “You know we’re normal people, we have busy lives like everybody else.”

“You expect me to be a robot?” Lexi added. “Because I’m not a robot, I’m not all fancy at all … I’m just a normal kid!”

Lexi has also been bullied in school — with kids picking on her or calling her names, her mom said.

“We’re trying to stop it,” Lexi added. “It really hurts your heart.”

The family later posted a photo of Lexi’s fictional father, Robert Downey Jr., with the all-caps message, “Say No To Bullying!”

“THANKS for ALL your SUPPORT!” the caption said. If you see someone saying unkind things….PLEASE report their account to . It takes a village!”

The family is considering launching an anti-bullying program, they said on “Good Morning America.”

Lexi also appears in “Godzilla: King of the Monsters,” playing in theaters now.
