When asked if Mickey Rourke would instead be playing Whiplash, Robert had this to say “I can neither confirm nor deny that,” said Downey. “Or maybe it’s some semblance of both. Here, I can tell you everything about the story except I won’t give away the ending. The nerd stuff is top-drawer security.”
Sounds like any other questions that Robert was asked, or will be asked, is also top security as his answer is pretty vague. Mickey Rourke has not officially signed on to playing any role in Iron Man 2 as of yet. The actor however has been reported as saying “I would bring all I could bring to Iron Man 2” that is of course if he gets officially signed onto the movie.
No news has surfaced yet on who will in fact be the main villain in the upcoming block buster Iron Man 2. Who ever Jon Favreau picks to play the main villain is fine by me. I was skeptical about Iron Man when I first heard the news of Jon taking the reins. But since I saw the film and realized how brilliant of a job Jon did with the first installment that makes me trust Jon and his decision on who ever he showcases as the main villain in the next installment. Here’s to seeing another quality blockbuster movie in Iron Man 2.
