It was rumored not too long ago, that there would be some mention or reference to Thor & Captain America after the rolling credits for the upcoming Iron Man 2. The original film's credits ended with Tony Stark(Robert Downey Jr.) meeting Director of SHIELD, Nick Fury(Samuel L. Jackson).
Now, Collider's Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub, got the chance to sit down with Iron Man 2's writer, Justin Theroux. And they discussed imrpov and the connection with all Marvel movies, and Theroux confirmed that "you might want to stay through the credits".
Collider: Well for things like Easter egg, is that something that you guys…is that a lot of improv or is that very scripted?
Justin Theroux:
No, that’s got to be very specific because you can’t…if it was all of a sudden Tony opens a tool box and there’s a friggin’ hammer in there, you can’t bone the next guy. You know it’s not like…you want to create possibilities. So that’s a very thought out piece. If the shield all of a sudden just falls out of the sky, whatever it is, whatever that thing is, you want to be very specific about it. So…
I understand.
It’ll be apparent in a week and a half.
I may be wrong, but it seems a little redundant that Thor(Chris Hemsworth) and Captain America(Chris Evans) would show up physically, and I'm pretty sure they won't put anything in that wouldn't fit with a third installment. With that being said, be sure to stay after the credits for Iron Man 2, May 7th. While we wait, speculate on what could it be....
