Director Jon Favreau talked to the Los Angeles Times, about his plans for Iron Man 2
Justin Therouxi hard at work writing the first draft of the script while Favreau is working with a story board artist and costume designer.
They're still trying to sort out who the villain should be, what to incorporate from the comic, and how this will tie in to the The Avengers movie.
He has an "interesting take" on the Mandarin--"allows us to incorporate the whole pantheon of villains".
He adds they "need some version of 'classic villains' in these movies" but is aware that many "don't hold up well to time and to the big screen."
The film's ending and Tony Stark's 'coming out' as Iron Man will carry over - "He announced who he was and we have now officially departed from the standard secret ID superhero. Tony was already famous before the announcement. What would really happen if this went down? Fun to explore."
Stark's alcoholism?
"I don't think we'll ever do the Leaving Las Vegas version, but it will be dealt with."
Of the 2010 release date - "I am confident that 2010 is achievable if we continue working together as we have for the past few months. It has to be great, though. It has to be great."
Favreau seems to have things well in hand.
