Iron Man Comic
By now we’ve all seen the surprise break out hit of the last summer, Iron Man. However, what’s going on with the new movie, Iron Man 2? When is it coming out, who’s going to be starring in the film? And most importantly, will it be as good as the original or are we going to see a second movie flop like so many other sequels. It is a rare film indeed that exceeds the previous one that was made (the one stand out exception I can think of is Star Trek II:
The Wrath of Kahn which should have been the first movie, considering how incredibly lame the first one was, but that’s another story) and so director Jon Favreu has a tall order on his hands.
Let’s start by talking about the stars. Most of your favorites will be back for the encore presentation. Robert Downey Jr. of course is going to be playing the Iron Man once again and will be confronting an increasingly serious drinking problem on screen (a problem he personally knows something about so we expect his performance will be quite good on this subject), Gwyneth Paltrow, the sexy seductress from so many teenage boy’s fantasies is reprising her role as Pepper Potts, although she will now be joined by Scarlett Johanssen who is taking on the role of Natasha Romanoff (Iron Man’s new secretary and also the Black Widow).
The only major cast member not to return is Terrence Howard who played Col. James ‘Rhodey’ Rhodes, Tony Stark’s best friend. He will be replaced by Don Cheadle of Oceans 11 fame.
The story for Iron Man 2 as we understand so far will be following Iron Man’s life after he revealed himself to the press. He is now suffering from a serious drinking problem and is trying to come to grips with his new fame and infamy as the Iron Man. We have been told that the movie will not be following the serious drinking problems that were chronicled in Marvel Comics “Demon in a Bottle” story. Instead, this will be a kind of in between time, between the origin of Iron Man and that low point in his life.
What we do know for sure is that Iron Man 2 is a big deal for the studio and for director Jon Favreu. They need a win on this one in order to show that the first movie was not a fluke.
