Favreau “un-officially” signs on for ‘Iron Man 2’

By  | 

You would think this is something they would have done BEFORE they announced the release date for the sequel which didn’t have a director, writer, or script! They didn’t, but they have now!From Deadline Hollywood:

“It’s not  officially announced yet, but I’m told  that Marvel Studios and Iron Man director 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.)  Marvel Studios boss  David Maisel  was quick to  put out a “definitely” richer  offer to  Favreau, but not quick enough for Jon — who used the Internet and other media to  rile up the movie’s many fans by spreading nonsense that Marvel was dragging its feet  and then  low-balling him. Granted Maisel is no day at the beach himself, but, seriously, could Favreau have been more of an asshole?”

Well let me say that its about damn time! Favreau and Downey, Jr. created magic, so why this took so long I have no idea…
