Jon Favreau Starting Work on Iron Man 2

Just because it hasn't been announced yet, doesn't mean work has begun on a highly-anticipated sequel. According to the L.A. Times, director Jon Favreau has already started to develop Iron Man 2.

"We're working on it now," Favreau said, "which hasn't been officially announced. It will be released in 2010."

Since Iron Man was one of the biggest hits of the summer, this seems inevitable and a formal announcement should be made soon. They are currently aiming at an April 30, 2010 release date.

We'll keep you posted on any and all updates surrounding this upcoming film.

Iron Man 2 was released May 7th, 2010 and stars Robert Downey Jr., Don Cheadle, Scarlett Johansson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sam Rockwell, Mickey Rourke, Samuel L. Jackson, Clark Gregg. The film is directed by Jon Favreau.

    War Machine in the sequel is a possibility, because Favreau said that they want to focus more on Tony's alcohol problem and living as two people all day everyday. You never know...

    "Director Jon Favreau told Ain't It Cool News that War Machine would not appear in the first film, but would in the sequels. Howard was supposedly cast with this in mind."

    Heck yeah Button (nice avatar by the way).

    Let's hope IM2 will be a Marval equivalent to a Dark Knight, aka, better than the first :)

    Now that Iron Man's origin story has been established in the first film, lets hope that the sequel will be just as action-packed and more explosive!
