Jon Favreau to direct Iron Man 2!


Created on July 10th, 2008 by Mikey B

Let’s start an Iron Man rumor, shall we? Jon Favreau is going to be directing the sequel to the box-office smash Iron Man. Thank God. Iron Man is probably in my top 3 comic book movies of all time, and by far one of the most entertaining films I’ve seen this year. I was like a school-girl drooling over a pop star, watching Robert Downey Jr. kick all sorts of ass and argue with a vacuum.

…Marvel Studios and Iron Mandirector Jon Favreau have reached a deal for him to helm the sequel, due out in 2010. (Robert Downey Jr had a sequel clause in his contract so he’s on board.)…

I’m really hoping they don’t rush this out, because we’ve all seen Pirates 3 and Spiderman 3 (which I use as my bar as worst movie ever - I know there’s worse, but I’d rather watch Glitter then see Spiderman 3 again). Let’s hope that these rumors are true so A) I don’t have to repeal this post and B) we’ll have a kick ass sequel worthy of following up the first film.

Head over to Deadline Hollywood to get the extremely unbiased story (sarcasm built-in).
