Jon Favreau Talks Iron Man 2 Deleted Scenes!

The Iron Man 2 director has revealed some of the multitude of scenes from the movie that were left on the editing room floor...

"The nice thing about working at Marvel is that they're very supportive of the director. I've been given a lot of creative freedom there," Favreau told MTV News.

"When we make changes, it's ones that we're all comfortable with. I like to be very collaborative with the studio. It's not like there's a version that they strong-armed me into not using, so I stand behind what's out there."

"There's a scene that leads up to Pepper throwing Iron Man's helmet off of a plane that's wonderful, but what it does is it ruins a surprise and ruins the momentum of the movie at the beginning," he said of the scene that could partially be seen in the first trailer that was released for the movie last year. "There's a little bit of a misdirect that we wanted to sell and the reveal of him landing on the stage for the first time is better without the scene."

Favreau also removed a flirtatious scene between Stark and Black Widow, because, "The relationship between Tony and Pepper is so special to the audience that if you let him and Scarlet get too flirty and close, the audience turns off very quickly."

"There are other scenes that I like that don't fit into the movie but I think are great," he explained. "As they stand alone, I prefer a lot of the things that we had to remove. I would have preferred to have them in the film than to have them removed."

Iron Man 2 is out now in the UK and will be released in the US tomorrow!

@LEEE777 - Hahaha, I'm not chasing credit or anything but I actually designed that Thor Bluray cover(my name is next to the Marvel logo. It fits in DVD cases but ironically wont fit in a bluray case!
I have plans to redo it with the new official pic soon.

Cheers guys! :)

Sounds to me like he's pretty much describing the scenes that we already caught glimpses of in the trailers...hopefully, there'll be a few surprises on the DVD/blu-ray as well!
