|  | IRON MAN movie (Starring Robert Downey Jr.)
« Thread Started on Aug 5, 2006, 9:57pm » | |
Now this has really got me excited, which I admit, more than when I first heard of the X-men Movie 6 years back.
from www.marvel.com

A Villain Revealed
At the San Diego Comic Con this past weekend, director/actor/writer Jon Favreau, who is set to helm the highly anticipated big screen adaptation of Iron Man, announced who Shellhead's nemesis would be in the upcoming film.
Mr. Favreau of Swingers and Made fame, named fan-favorite and long-standing Iron Man archenemy Mandarin as the villain who will be the rust in Tony Stark's armor.
Additionally, we have a sneak peak of the teaser poster that was shown at the convention. Designed by Iron Man artist Adi Granov—a major player in the production design of this film—this poster gives a glimpse as to what Stark could look like when he eventually dons the red and gold suit in May of 2008.
This project, the first feature film to be produced independently by Marvel Entertainment, is expected to be financed through Marvel's $525 million revolving film financing facility and distributed under Marvel's overall distribution arrangement with Paramount. Iron Man will mark the first production under Mr. Arad's newly launched production company, Avi Arad Productions.
Storyboarding has already commenced. Favreau had stated that he intended to cast an unknown in the role of Anthony Stark a.k.a Iron Man, though rumors are gaining momentum. Favreau has also said that the plot itself will not so much deal with his personal problems (alcoholism) as much as the creation of his suit and the birth of Iron Man. However, he did say if there would be a sequel, the story could easily head in some of those directions.
Keep your eye-beams on the look out for more news on this metal-head movie.
May 02, 2008, less than two years to go guys

Yup, that's him alright. He is also reknowed from acting in movies such as Swingers and Deep Impact. Didn't know that he was into the directing thing as well. ![[image]](http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c74/alecpalomo/emoticons/ecstatic.gif "[image]")
Oh yea, you might be interested to know that Favreau made a myspace group (link here) so that he can gather info from the fans. Personally, I don't think that this is a good idea since reading through the thread on who they want to cast as Iron Man, putting Leonardo diCaprio in this list is a real movie turn off. But then again, it's ultimately up to Favreau. ![[image]](http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c74/alecpalomo/emoticons/nosayhearsee.gif "[image]")

Really now? Val Kilmer from The Bat to Mr. Stars and Stripes as well? As for Iron Man, the planned villian ata will be Mandarin and James Rhodes will also be there. It would be cool if Tom Selleck (Magnum P.I) would play Iron Man (if he were younger, he he he). He's a dead ringer of Tony Stark eh.

...and if Tom Selleck isnt available, they can always contact Don Frye (UFC/Pride mix martial aritst)... he looks like Tom Selleck... He did his acting debut in Godzilla: Final Wars :clap:
... It's also confirmed that Mandarin will be the bad guy in the movie...
... oh, and I just finished watching the Ultimate Avengers 2 DVD... i think they are starting to make an Iron Man animated movie... 
... they are also preparing for a Dr. Strange animated movie

Quote:I just remembered...
Who was that bad guy in the movie rocketeer???
The Line Mustache on his upper lip is what I like in Tony Stark. Also his looks and mannerism is like that of a millionaire too.
Come to think of it, even former Bond Stars Timmothy Dalton and Pierce Bronson doesnt look bad either. Since Tony Stark has that "Bruce Wayne" charisma  |
|
actually the bad guy in rocketeer was timothy dalton.

Yup that's Timothy Dalton, other than him, I wonder who else can play a suave Tony Stark, who's (as the theme song goes) "a cool exec with a heart of steel."
