International “Iron Man 2″ Poster

3 December 2009 2:12 PM, PST | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »

Paramount Pictures released a new international poster for “Iron Man 2” which features Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.)

Speaking with Dark Horizons actor Sam Rockwell spilled a little more about his role as Justin Hammer in the upcoming “Iron Man” sequel”.

“I’m a rival to Tony Stark. I’m a weapons dealer” says Rockwell who doesn’t label Hammer as a secondary villain as many first thought – “He’s kind of more of the plucky comic relief, but he’s got a little bit of an edge. He’s a little pissed off… [actually] he’s little more Salieri than he is the plucky comic relief. Mickey Rourke is really the bad guy.”

The actor is also the focus of an online campaign to get his performance in “Moon” awards recognition. Asked about it, he says

“That’s a very flattering thing, yeah” but admits the chances of the film »

Tony Stark: Full Metal Jacket...

3 December 2009 10:29 AM, PST | SneakPeek | See recent SneakPeek news »

"Iron Man 2', the upcoming Paramount sequel, based on Marvel Comics 'Tony Stark' aka 'Iron Man', is directed by Jon Favreau with actor Robert Downey, Jr. reprising the title role.

The film will be released May 7 , 2010.

"Iron Man 2" is set six months after the events of "Iron Man", with the ' S.H.I.E.L.D.' organization continuing to have a major role. The film explores Stark's alcoholism, as he is unable to cope with his advancing age, concealing the fact he is Iron Man, and dealing with his budding love interest 'Pepper' (Gwyneth Paltrow), finding another boyfriend.

Downey revealed that while the film was not an adaptation of the "Demon in a Bottle" storyline from the comic book series, it was more about the 'interim space' between the origin and the demon story arc.

Cast of "Iron Man 2" also includes Don Cheadle as 'Lt. »

Sundance Film Festival Details Released

3 December 2009 5:47 AM, PST | ReelLoop.com | See recent Reel Loop news »

I feel a special bond with the Sundance Film Festival. Not because I’ve been there, but because the guy in charge of it this year, John Cooper, shares my name. Because we share this bond, I feel that I’m able to take license in referring to the man as Coop for the rest of this article.

For the annual event held in Park City, Utah from January 21-31, thousands of films are submitted and screened — this year, 3,724 films were viewed by the festival’s ten programmers. I wonder when they slept.

Coop has high hopes for the festival as a whole:

“We may even be going into a golden age for independent films, in that the technology will make it possible for the films to be made and for audiences to see them. The industry is going through a major evolutionary stage right now, there’s no doubt about that, »

Sundance Unveils 2010 Competition Lineup

2 December 2009 8:36 PM, PST | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »

The Sundance Film Festival has unveiled the lineup of films playing in competition from January 21 through January 31, 2010.  The early fest typically debuts some of the best films the year has to offer, like 2009’s Precious, (500) Days of Summer, and Moon.

I’m bummed I won’t be in Park City, Utah next month because the lineup looks great, and these are just the films playing in competition.  Here’s a few that stood out to me:

The Allen Ginsberg trial film Howl starring James Franco, a documentary by Alex Gibney (a truly great filmmaker) on Jack Abramoff, Mark Ruffalo’s directorial debut Sympathy for Delicious, a doc about Joan Rivers, the directorial debut of “How I Met Your Mother” star Josh Radnor titled Happythankyoumoreplease (I wrote a glowing script review of it here), Hesher with Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Natalie Portman, and Blue Valentine starring Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams.

2 December 2009 3:19 PM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

Photo: Sundance Today the Sundance Institute announced the films that will be in competition at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival in both the U.S. and International dramatic and documentary categories. The festival will run from January 21-31 in Park City, Utah. There are a few changes this year as there will be no opening-night picture and the festival will take select festival films to eight cities during as the fest plays out.

Last year notable films such as this year's major Oscar contenders Precious and An Education debuted at Sundance 2009 as did audience and critical favorite (500) Days of Summer.

As for this year's crop I have highlighted a few titles among the list below in red, but I have primarily done so considering the names attached to the pictures not necessarily based on any advanced buzz I've heard around any of the films. Names to look out for include Ryan Gosling, »

Competition Line-up Announced for the 2010 Sundance Film Festival

2 December 2009 2:15 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

The Sundance Film Festival is where some of the great films of the year will get their first viewings, and if you don’t believe me, here’s just some of the great films this year that made their debut at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival: Precious, World’s Greatest Dad, Big Fan, Bronson, Moon and even (500) Days of Summer, which I didn’t care for but made a big splash.

The festival is where buzz starts happening and now Sundance has released the list of which films will be in competition for 2010.  Keep in mind that there are plenty of other films which play out of competition and can be just as great.  But some of the big names fighting for the crown are the Allen Ginsberg obscenity trial film Howl starring General Hospital’s James Franco, Hesher starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Natalie Portman, Mark Ruffalo’s directing debut Sympathy for Delicious, »

Robert Downey Jr talks Iron Man 2 as new poster unveiled

1 December 2009 6:15 PM, PST | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »

The first official poster for Iron Man 2, due out next May, shows Tony Stark's armoured alter-ego back to back with his pal James 'Rhodey' Rhodes (played by Don Cheadle) who dons a similar power-suit to become War Machine.

The film is directed by Jon Favreau and also stars Scarlett Johansson, Sam Rockwell, Mickey Rourke, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Mara, Samuel L Jackson and Olivia Munn.

So what can we expect? Robert Downey Jr has been spilling the beans about the story and scale of the movie...

He said: "The first one was an origin story that was very plotty. [Stark] couldn't ever have imagined that he'd be put into captivity but he knew that with the right resources he could get out. But he didn't know what was going to happen when he got out.

"I think this one, from the beginning, is him very much looking at his own mortality. »

Along with the new poster that we put up last night, Paramount have released some new high resolution images to accompany it via ComingSoon.net. The one of Scarlett Johansson we’ve seen before but to my knowledge it was always a thumbnail size. Nice to see it blown up to a decent viewable image . Click them below to enlarge or visit the gallery on ComingSoon.net to view in super hi-res.

The other images show Mickey Rourke and Robert Downey Jr. playing with their techie gadgets + 1 of Downey Jr. finding what looks like a safe buried beneath his stone floor! I’m sure some Iron Man die hard fans can tell me exactly what they’re playing with but I’ll let you do that in the comments below!

Iron Man 2 is directed by Jon Favreau, and also stars Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Jon Favreau, Sam Rockwell, Samuel L. Jackson, »

Iron Man 2 | Poster

Here it is kids, the first poster for Iron Man 2, showing Tony Stark's (Robert Downey Jr.) alter-ego Iron Man next to Rhodey all suited-up as War Machine. No official premise just yet, but so far Lord Favreau has said that the film picks up six months after the events of Iron Man and will explore Tony Stark's alcoholism, but not the Demon in a Bottle version from the comics. What we do know is that Robert Downey Jr, Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Jon Favreau (also directing), Mickey Rourke, Sam Rockwell, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson, Kate Mara, Garry Shandling, John Slattery and Clark Gregg are all sharing the screen for what is expected to be a record breaking release date on May 7th 2010.
