?Iron Man 2? Casting: Scarlett Johansson Definitely In, Emily Blunt Still Out?

There?s been a flurry of action on the ?Iron Man 2″ casting front this evening, with both unofficial, yet potentially big-news elements coming from Nikki Finke?s step-ahead-of-publicity Deadline Hollywood Daily news blog.

Just a little while ago, Finke reported that Mickey Rourke was close to sealing a deal for ?Iron Man 2,? but what part he?ll play in the blockbuster sequel is still up in the air (Robert Downey Jr. told MTV that he definitely wasn?t playing Crimson Dynamo). Now, Finke claims that the rumored replacement for Emily Blunt in the role of Black Widow, Scarlett Johansson, is officially in for ?Iron Man 2.?

?[The deal is] interesting because Scarlett actually screen-tested for the role and didn?t get it,? wrote Finke.

It?s important to note that no official announcements have been made in this or the Mickey Rourke casting news, but if the past is any indication, the announcement might not be made until many months after the casting is old news for much of the public. (For example, Marvel only recently ?announced? Kenneth Branagh as the ?Thor? director, yet Branagh and many of the people involved with the film have been naming him as such for several months.)

According to Finke?s report, Johansson?s deal isn?t as friendly to the actress? finances as Rourke?s arrangement, though ? and it ties the actress to many of the subsequent Marvel films, including the superhero team-up film ?The Avengers.?

As I mentioned earlier, this is absolutely not official at this time, but it?s certainly worth noting, given DHD?s history with breaking news of this sort. Keep it locked to Splash Page for more as this story develops.

RDJ Talks Iron Man 2

Entertainment Tonight talked to Robert Downey Jr. about Iron Man 2, which begins filming on Monday. Here's an excerpt from the interview:

"The 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," Robert tells our own Thea Andrews of the super sequel, set to start filming Monday. "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."

As for co-star Scarlett Johansson, who plays the femme fatale Black Widow in the sequel, Robert says, "We've been rehearsing and she's in insane shape. She's getting lean and mean."

Iron Man 2, opening May 7, 2010, co-stars Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Jon Favreau, Mickey Rourke, Sam Rockwell and Samuel L. Jackson.

Yess!, too perfect. RDJ is the best superhero. I'm glad we get to see more Stark than Ironman. Thats not always the case with these movies but he plays him so perfectly. This movie has all the right ingredients from actors to directors to writers, ugh.. Marvel don't **** this up!

Not just that, but good movies take time! If you look at the movies rushed in production they generally suck. Long ways off or not, the first was spectacular I want them to take all the time they need to make the sequel just as good if not better. Like Rappy said, it'll be well worth the wait and I wouldn't be surprised if it did close to Dark Knight numbers, the first was a massive success, the buzz for this one will be twice that. The nice part of having RDJ in it, is people who don't even care about comic books will go see it because his performance is so good. Besides how can't you love RDJ.

why do movies i want to see take so long to come out. :laugh: i guess it takes a "long" time to make these movies and get them ready with all of the cgi.

Actually, one year to film and release is really short. Some movies take two to three years to complete if I'm not mistaken.
