Jetzt steht ein Regisseur fest: JON FAVREAU ( vor allem als Schauspieler bekannt, u.a. Foggy aus Daredevil )
Iron Man wird von Paramount vertrieben und er ist (anstelle vom ursprünglich geplanten Captain America) der erste, den MARVEL selbst finanziert!
Hier spricht Jon auf seinem Blog mit Fans über das Projekt!
Zitat:
Iron Man will indeed be my next movie. Marvel is distributing it through Paramount which, for those of you playing at home, is also the studio that is developing John Carter of Mars. That project is still a huge priority for me and I am still very much attached to it both as a director and producer.
Iron Man is the first Marvel production under its new distribution arrangement. My hope is that this will be reflected in the quality of the movie. Their films are self-financed and, as a result, don't have to run the typical creative gauntlet of studio development. What Marvel says, goes.
As far as specifics, it will be set in the present and, as you would probably expect, includes a version of the origin story.

Re: Iron Man
Auf jeden Fall hat der Favreau ganz gute Ansichten, wie man das Ding händeln sollte:
Zitat:
"The fun part is you get to do the origin story," he said. "The origin was conceived in the early 60s, and there wasn't the same sort of attention to detail as there is now. It's a Vietnam Era superhero, and it was complicated times then politically. We find ourselves in difficult times again, so you update it and set it in present day. A fun part of it is that you get to have different incarnations of the suit. In the origin you have the suit he makes in captivity, and then you get to refine it not just in this film, but in future films the possibilities are endless ... I think the technology-based villains lend themselves better to the universe that we're dealing with. Not necessarily the types that are magical or imbued with God-given abilities and mutations. I'd rather go with people grounded in reality and see how far you can push that with out losing the realism that this franchise offers."

Re: Fakten & Gerüchte: IRON MAN
Zitat: Jon Favreau
We've got two(2!) sets of writers typing away on scenes and outlines. We've got a room full of storyboard illustrators and concept artists. The story has been fully broken. The villian has been selected and the train has left the station. I expect a rough first draft in the next several weeks, though the sequences are being hammered out visually as we speak. I wont reveal any further details on the plot or villians at this time. Marvel likes to trickle this type of info out slowly, as you can understand, and we are a full two years away from release. I did, however, convince them to share some interesting stuff some time in, oh, I don't know, July?

Jon Favreau enthült:
Zitat:
Director Jon Favreau has been quite the online personality, posting up a storm in his MySpace group (guess he got tired of the blog), where he answers vital questions, putting the origin in the present day, promising there will be a Jim Rhodes, saying he likes Adi Granov's armor design from the "Extremis" storyline and more, including possibly seeing something in time for Comic-Con.
Ausserdem sagte er an anderer Stelle, dass Mai 2008 anvisiert wird!

Fakten & Gerüchte: IRON MAN - Gegner steht fest...
Iron Man director Jon Favreau confirmed at the San Diego Comic-Con on Saturday that the villain in the movie will be fan-favorite Mandarin!
The Mandarin is one of the world's greatest scientific geniuses who is seeking world domination. Although The Mandarin has no superhuman powers, he is a superb athlete with tremendous skill in the various martial arts. For weapons, he uses ten rings he wears on his fingers that respond to his mental commands.
Marvel Studios has set a May 2, 2008 release date for Iron Man. Paramount Pictures will distribute the film.

Das nächste (22.) 007-Abenteuer (das zweite mit Daniel Craig als britischen Agenten) wird am gleichen Tag wie Iron Man anlaufen: 02.05.08.
Zitat:
I also heard the James Bond has since planned to release its next installment on our same date: May 2, 2008. The only weekend of 2008 taken, I might add. I'm sort of surprised by the move by Sony as I'm sure we share some of the same audience. It feels like two cars fighting over the same spot in an empty parking lot. I guess they expect us to move. I really don't get it.
und noch ein paar Worte zum Gegenspieler Mandarin
Zitat:
For those of you who haven't heard, Mandarin will be the villian. But don't expect a magical Fu Manchu stereotype. We are taking many liberties to update the villain. He will still size up as Stark's nemesis, but we're throwing in a few surprises for the fans of the books.

Favreau über die Mitwirkung von Tom Cruise:
Zitat:
I've never even met Tom Cruise, though I do think he is a great actor. He doesn't seem to fit with what Marvel is looking for at this time, but you never know what will happen. The rumor is false as far as I know.
