Ironman 2 – The Movie Trailer
Iron Man 2 is an upcoming 2010 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name from Marvel Studios and Paramount Pictures. It is the sequel to 2008’s Iron Man, and the second film in a planned trilogy. Directed by Jon Favreau, the film stars Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, a billionaire industrialist and master engineer, also known as the superhero, Iron Man. The film is scheduled to be released on May 7, 2010.
The world is aware that billionaire inventor Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is the armored Super Hero Iron Man. Under pressure from the government, the press and the public to share his technology with the military, Tony is unwilling to divulge the secrets behind the Iron Man armor because he fears the information will slip into the wrong hands. With Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow), and James “Rhodey” Rhodes (Don Cheadle) at his side, Tony forges new alliances and confronts powerful new forces.
* Robert Downey, Jr. as Anthony “Tony” Stark / Iron Man: The head of Stark Industries, inventor and the film’s eponymous superhero and protagonist.
* Don Cheadle as Lt. Colonel James “Rhodey” Rhodes / War Machine: Cheadle is replacing Terrence Howard from the first film. Howard said, “There was no explanation, apparently the contracts that we write and sign aren’t worth the paper that they’re printed on sometimes. Promises aren’t kept, and good faith negotiations aren’t always held up.” Entertainment Weekly stated Favreau did not enjoy working with Howard, often reshooting and cutting his scenes; Howard’s publicist said he had a good experience playing the part, while Marvel chose not to comment. As Favreau and Theroux chose to minimize the role, Marvel came to Howard to discuss lowering his salary – Howard was the first actor hired in Iron Man and earned the largest salary of the cast. The publication stated they were unsure whether Howard’s representatives left the project first or if Marvel chose to stop negotiating. Theroux denied the part of the report stating “the role of War Machine was scaled back and then beefed up”. Cheadle only had a few hours to accept the role and did not even know what storyline Rhodes would undergo. He commented he is a comic book fan, but felt there are not enough black superheroes. The character will don the War Machine armor in the film.
* Mickey Rourke as Ivan Vanko / Whiplash: This version of the character also includes elements of Crimson Dynamo from the comics. In the film, he will be the son of Russian scientist Anton Vanko, who, in the comics, is the original Crimson Dynamo and creator of said armor. Downey offered Rourke the part during a roundtable discussion with David Ansen at the 2009 Golden Globes, and Rourke met with Favreau and Theroux to discuss his character’s role. Rourke almost dropped out of the role due to Marvel’s initial salary offer of $250,000, so the studio chose to increase the deal. Rourke researched for the part by visiting Butyrka prison. He suggested half of the character’s dialogue be in Russian. Whiplash will act as the primary antagonist of the film alongside Justin Hammer. In the trailer, he is shown using electric whips.
* Gwyneth Paltrow as Virginia “Pepper” Potts: Stark’s closest friend, budding love interest, and business partner after Pepper replaced Obadiah Stane as CEO of Stark Industries.
* Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow: An undercover spy posing as Stark’s assistant. Johansson was cast after a scheduling conflict forced Emily Blunt to drop out of the part.
* Sam Rockwell as Justin Hammer: Rockwell was considered for the role of Tony Stark in the first film, and he accepted the role of Hammer without reading the script. He had never heard of the character before he was contacted about the part, and was unaware Hammer is an old man in the comics, whereas in the film he will be significantly closer to Stark’s age. He will perform as one of the film’s prime antagonists, possibly the main one.
* Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury: Jackson initially had financial problems with Marvel and was unsure about reprising the part of Fury, until they reached a deal that would entail his appearance in up to nine films as the character.
* Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan: Tony Stark’s bodyguard and chauffeur.
* John Slattery as Howard Stark: Tony’s father.
Garry Shandling appears as Senator Stern, a senator who wants Stark to give Iron Man’s armor to the government. Paul Bettany will again voice Stark’s computer, JARVIS. Clark Gregg will reprise his role as S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Phil Coulson from the first film. Kate Mara will appear as Bethany Cabe. Olivia Munn has also landed an unspecified role in the film. Stan Lee will appear as talk show host Larry King.
