April 3, 2009 - Iron Man 2 / Downey on sequel
Scooped on Friday, April 3, 2009
Entertainment Tonight has a video interview with Robert Downey Jr. on their site where the actor talks about his thoughts on filling Tony Stark's business suit and power armor for a second go-around.
"The [sequel] film is almost entirely about character, and yet we still have twice as much action as we did last time, so it's going to be nuts," Downey told the outlet. "Essentially Iron Man 2 is about looking behind the armor, or the armature, of a superhero. It's one thing to say you're Iron Man, it's another thing to be fully ready to do that."
On how his physical look that he made for the recently filmed Sherlock Holmes is affecting the way he looks in Iron Man 2: "I'm on Beefcake Charlie status...I've got to not be the skinny Brit anymore. I have to be the Tony that you know and may have loved."
On Scarlett Johansson's rumored diet: "We've been rehearsing and she's in insane shape. She's getting lean and mean."
Iron Man 2's first day of filming is scheduled for next Monday.
