Iron Man 2 Preview, Cast info

Iron Man is back and stronger than its first impressive run. I'm Dana Ward and this is Clevver TV.

Hi guys! Welcome to the show. We're dishing you the deets on the upcoming and much anticipated, Iron Man 2. The original film did so well - earning more than 580-million-bucks at the box office - so now fans are expecting a whole lot from the Marvel Comics followup. Lucky for us, it seems the sequel is well on its way to becoming a hit. With filming set to start in April, the cast list is almost all booked up.

Most of the old players are back again. The film will rock Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, and, of course, Robert Downey Jr. will reprise his role as Tony Stark who transforms into Iron Man. Some newbies this round announced thusfar include Scarlett Johansson as both Natasha Romanoff and watch out - Black Widow. Plus, Mickey Rourke is signed on to play duel-characters Ivan as well as Whiplash. Don Cheadle takes the reins as James Rhodey Rhodes - a character played in the 2008 film by Terrence Howard.

The comic-based movie is set to hit theatres May 7, 2010. Be sure to go to Clevver.com to see clips from the first Iron Man as well as from all of your favorite movies and tv shows. I'm Dana Ward at our Beverly Hills headquarters and we'll see you soon!
