Rumor is that Downey will play Hugh Hefner. He’s been named by Hugh Hefner to portray him in the biopic “Playboy” about the 82-year-old’s life of luxury and excess. Interesting. From Iron Man to Bunny Humper.
Check out the trailer for the new Iron Man movie, complete with over the top Black Sabbath Iron Man theme.
In theaters May 2008. The plot outline goes something like this: When Tony Stark is forced to create a life support suit to keep him alive after an accident he decides to use the technology in his suit to fight crime.
When I first heard about Robert Downey Jr. in the lead role, I was somewhat concerned. After all, we all know how easy it is to make bad Superhero movies with good intentions. However, judging by the looks of the trailer, he seems perfect for the role.
This should be a good one. Though, I always have to wonder with these movies…who Stan Lee is going to show up as this time in his cameo role?
