Robert Downey Jr.

Ain’t Cool News tuvo la primicia, y ya está confirmado por el propio director Jon Favreau, el (ex) díscolo actor Robert Downey Jr. será Iron Man:

I can’t even express how much I love that choice. First of all, congratulations to Paramount and Marvel for having the nerve to pin their franchise on Downey. He’s had some rough years, but if I’ve ever seen anyone aggressively work to rehab their career, it’s Downey. Even in his darkest days, he was doing good work, but lately he seems more in touch than ever with what makes him great as a performer. He’s excellent with comedy, and he can break an audience’s heart with ease. Rare combination.

¿Qué se puede esperar de esto? Habrá que tener paciencia pues el proyecto recién empieza, hace poco les mostraba los primeros bocetos de un posible Iron Man. Por lo pronto Downey no lo hizo nada mal en Good Night, and Good Luck, la última película que le he visto. Esperemos nomás que la renovada fama no le vuelva a cruzar los cables.
