Geez, is Samuel L. Jackson the man or what? He’ll never have to network or market himself again, because he just signed a nine-picture deal to play Nick Fury, an agent of Marvel’s spy organization S.H.I.E.L.D.
The films include "Iron Man 2," "Thor," "Captain America," and "The Avengers." Plus, he also might head up [...]

I always have trouble remembering that Scarlett Johansson is only 24 years old. It just seems like she’s been around forever and, in fact, she’s been acting since 1994, so she really HAS been around for a while.
Now she’s in talks with Marvel Studios to star in "Iron Man 2," possibly replacing Emily [...]

While working on the script for the sequel, screenwriter Justin Theroux told MTV.com that the main theme of [...]

I’ve been wondering why Terrence Howard was dropped from his “Iron Man” role. I posted last week that Don Cheadle would be taking over the role of Col. James “Rhodey” Rhodes in “Iron Man 2″ and any future movies in the franchise.
