• Theroux Talks Iron Man 2 & The Avengers

  Published on: June 11, 2009

  Actor/screenwriter Justin Theroux has been a busy man lately. Alongside Ben Stiller, he co-wrote the script of last summer’s comedy hit Tropic Thunder, and he’s been tapped to write the screenplay for Iron Man 2. He recently spoke to UGO about the first draft of his Iron Man 2 script, and gave his thoughts on the James “Rhodey” Rhodes switcheroo from Terrence Howard to Don Cheadle.

  "...We’ve kind of got a first draft around.  You know what I mean?  I just got back from London where I was working with Robert and Kevin Feige.  He was out there.  We were talking with Robert, who’s out there doing Sherlock Holmes, he was giving his input and his notes.  We’re sort of there.  It’s just sort of chugging along.  The crews, I think, are now starting to see what they need to make, and the places that we might be going and all the rest within the story.  That’s sort of one of the more exciting times..."

Perfecting a unique mix of humor, drama and action, “Iron Man” was able to avoid the pitfalls of films like “The Fantastic Four” or “Ghost Rider” by finding a crowd-pleasing, critic-pleasing balance. Now, Favreau and Robert Downey Jr. are back at work, and they were claiming that the sequel would be even bigger, funnier, and more action-packed.
