Iron Man 2 film trailer

Being a huge fan of the first Iron Man film, when I was told today that not only are they making a second installment but that the film trailer is already out, I nearly soiled myself! Iron Man is one of my favourite super hero films because it doesn’t take itself too seriously, has great action, is full of gadgets & fast cars and the character of Tony Stark is played perfectly by Robert Downey Jr (although I imagine that this is how he is in real life, so it should be quite an easy part for him to play!?).

Although I was unsure about the trailer for this film (I wasn’t keen on the idea of their being lots of “Iron Men”) it features an all star cast, including Mickey Rourke as the main protaganist (as Whiplash), Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury (really, who else could play this part!?), Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow and many more. The film also includes many from the original cast including Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts and there is also another famous cameo by Stan Lee (the original creator of many of the Marvel comics characters). Stan Lee has a cameo in nearly all of his films, including the last Iron Man film he played a Hugh Heffner style character.

The release date for this film is 30th April 2010 and I can’t wait. As I said, I was unsure about the film when I saw the trailer but there are a lot of very cool looking scenes in it, and I’m sure it will live up to expectations as the first film was just sooo good!
