Jon Favreau klar på "Iron Man 2"

Instruktøren vender tilbage.

DeadlineHollywood kan fortælle, at Jon Favreau vil vende tilbage for at instruere "Iron Man 2", som er sat til at ramme biograferne den 30. april, 2010.

Chef for Marvel Studio, David Maisel, understregede, at der "bestemt" var tilbudt Favreau en bedre aftale, som tidligere har udtalt, at en udgivelsesdato i 2010 er fuldstændig urealistisk.

"I am concerned, however, about the announced release date of April 2010," sagde Favreau i juni. "Neither Robert nor I were consulted about this and we are both concerned about how realistic the date is in light of the fact that we have no script, story or even writers hired yet. This genre of movie is best when it is done thoughtfully and with plenty of preparation. It might be better to follow the BB/DK, X/X2 three year release pattern than to scramble for a date. It is difficult because there are no Marvel 09 releases and they need product, but I also think we owe it to the fans to have a great version of IM2 and, at this point, we would have less time to make it than the first one."

Med hensyn til rollebesætningen afslørede Favreau, at "alle skuespillerne er i gang med forhandlinger". Robert Downey Jr. har en klausul om en efterfølger i hans kontrakt, så han vender højst sandsynligt tilbage.
