Mark Wahlberg: I want to be next Iron Man

Think comic book heroes, and Mark Wahlberg?s isn?t the first name in the fanboy?s mind. But doing the press rounds for upcoming Denzel Washington team-up ?2 Guns?, hitting cinemas this week, the ?Departed? star opened up about taking on a comic book franchise and a previous close call with the Caped Crusader. 

 

?I would like to take over the ?Iron Man? franchise for Robert Downey,? admitted Mark about his Superhero longings, ?[but] it?s one of those things where I kind of like playing real people, [so] I?ve never been asked."

 

?Once I was kind of being talked about for the Robin role in ?Batman [Forever]?,? he laughed about the Joel Schumacher franchise that culminated in 'worst movie ever' ?Batman & Robin?. ?Somebody dodged a bullet!?

 

Agreed. But does he think he could have pulled off Robin?s cheeky red costume? 

 

?I ain't wearing no tights man.?

Robert Downey Jr loves playing Iron Man and don't see him dropping it anything soon. I don't see him being a serious actor roles. More of a goofy actor like most of the movies he is in.

yup, that pretty much sums up my feelings of him as a super hero.

Haha, he's good as an actor just not as a superhero :p

The key isn't playing Iron Man, that's 90% CGI, but in playing the hyper-intelligent, egotistical smart ass that is Tony Stark. That takes a similar personality or the acting chops to imitate it, and Wahlberg doesn't have either. Downey has both.

Screw him!

 

i dont particulary care for iron man AT ALL.     but i would not trust this guy with anything!      after he screwed up Max Payne so bad!

 

This idiot refused to play the game the movie is based on, and just decided to put his own spin on it!
