Stuntman on Iron Man 2 reveals spoilers
August 27, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
In an interview with Movieline, stuntman Garrett Warren (Stunt Choreographer of the Year, by the way), revealed a few spoilers about “Iron Man 2.”
Ok, nothing major, but here’s what he had to say about Whiplash (Mickey Rourke) and the whips used in the movie:
"I don’t know if I’m at liberty to say what the [Iron Man 2] whips will look like, but they’re going to be these super whips that have an awful lot of power. They can cut through cars. They can do an awful lot of damage. And when the movie comes out, you’ll see that he doesn’t do just whip-cracks and grabbing people.
“He lays waste to an awful lot of vehicles and street pieces and other things. At one point, Whiplash had to get hit by a car, and Mickey did the lead up to the stunt, and I did the stunt where the car came in and hit me and took me to the fence. So yes, you’ll see a combination of Mickey and myself. …and a whole lot more beside."
Hmmm … well, at least we know there’s going to be some major Whiplash action! Any thoughts on this intel?
“Iron Man 2” arrives in theaters May 7, 2010.
