Title: News on the upcoming Iron Man Film?
Post by: jonchang on November 26, 2007, 06:40AM
So...any new updates of the upcoming IM movie?

Scheduled to be released May 2, 2008. Most of these information come from Wikipedia.

Stars:

Robert Downey, Jr. as Iron Man
Terrence Howard as War Machine
Gwyneth Paltrow as Virginia Potts the Secretary
Jeff Bridges as the Iron Monger
Shaun Toub as Yin Sen, the captive from Afghanistan
Samuel L. Jackson as Col. Nick Fury

ILM is going to be hired for special effects. The only thing is I don't know the main antagonist. Mandarin, most likely?

You can see clips of Iron Monger in the trailer.  Cuz that sure ain't Iron Man.  I'll see if I can find some stills.

Ultimate Nick Fury is an African-American. The character was also based off Samuel L. Jackson, who will also portray the Colonel in the movie.

Yeah, I wouldn't count on it being "Ultimate".  Movies are sortof like an alternate universe of Marvel, like the Age of Apocalypse.  Things are similar, but not perfectly the same.

Earth-616.

However, in the Ultimate Avengers animated movies, Thor is in his Ultimate form, whereas Shellhead isn't.
