A-List Stars Boosts Iron Man Sequel Up Up And Away

Almost every Marvel movie released in theaters these past few screening dates have factual statements of having a sequel. Spiderman will be having a fourth installment, Captain America in 2010 will be Obama (kidding), Thor will be ahead of screening date before his team "The Avengers", and a whole lot more.

Sparing you from the spoilers, coming soon in the big screen is the second installment of our flying tin can hero Iron Man which will still be played by sassy daddy Robert Downey Jr. Although this time, he will be joined by a new Marvel Russian character which will be played by a fellow A-list star.

According to Entertainment Online, Scarlett Johannsson will be playing the Marvel Russian character, Black Widow. Well I couldn't imagine anyone better to play the role anyways... unless Cher changes her mind to play Catwoman on the next Dark Knight sequel... JUST KIDDING!

So who gets beat up this time around? Nope, it's not some giant robot with mood swings. Joining the cast is Marvel Villain Whiplash to be played by an already villainous star, Mickey Rourke

... and I'm more convinced to watch out for this on the big screen.

Iron Man 2 engages its gears to the big screen on May 2010. Familiar stars are rumored to still be present on the attendance sheet: Gwyneth Paltrow as Brad Pitt's ex... I mean, as Pepper Potts, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, and Don Cheadle as Col. James "Rhodey" Rhodes.
