More Iron Man 2 Casting News



Hey Readers. Today VANTAGE gives you guys even more casting news from the anticipated sequel, Iron Man 2.

Variety is now reporting that Emily Blunt (The Devil Wears Prada) is in talks to join the feature film. She is currently up for the role of Natasha Romanoff.

Natasha Romanoff is a Soviet super spy who's alter ego is the Black Widow, a femme fatale who sports a skintight black costume that is enhanced by high-tech weaponry.

If the role does go to Emily, she will be joining Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, and the recently announced villains, Mickey Rourke and Sam Rockwell.

Iron Man 2 is set to go into production this spring with the hopes for a May 7, 2010 release date.

With all these casting news appearing online, I can't help but get a little excited. I mean, the casting of Mickey Rourke and Sam Rockwell is just awesome! I think that they're absolutely perfect for the roles! And now this! I think that it's an excellent idea to bring in the Black Widow! I'm sure that the Iron Man fans out there will appreciate that! I myself am not a huge Iron Man fan so I only really have a vague idea of the Black Widow character, but I'm guessing a love triangle will be played out in the film.

What do you think? Comment!
