THE WRESTLER BATTLES NICK CAGE UNDERSTUDY FOR VILLAIN ROLE IN IRON MAN 2!
From iwatchstuff.com
Mickey Rourke has gotten so popular since he started his wrestling
career. Yesterday he joined the cast of Stallone's The Expendables, and
now he's reportedly in talks to join Iron Man 2 as the film's central
villain, while Sam Rockwell may play a rival industrialist.
Mickey Rourke and Sam Rockwell are in talks to star as the villains in
"Iron Man 2," being directed by Jon Favreau.
Marvel has been keeping a very tight lid on the script for the sequel,
being written by Justin Theroux, but it is known that Rourke would play
a tattooed Russian heavy named Ivan who becomes Whiplash, a man with
deadly, technologically enhanced coils.
Rockwell would play Justin Hammer, a multibillionaire businessman and a
rival of industrialist Anthony Stark, AKA Iron Man, being played by a
returning Robert Downey Jr.
So Mickey Rourke is playing Whiplash. Except Variety says the role is
Crimson Dynamo:
Which role Rockwell will play has yet to be disclosed by Marvel, but
Rourke is in discussions to play the Crimson Dynamo, a heavily tattooed
Russian arms dealer. He's considered to be an evil version of Iron Man
because he battles the superhero in a nuclear-powered suit of armor.
Confusing! I think the only way to suss this one out is with blind
speculation, Photoshopping, and comments that we won't see the movie
without Terrence Howard in it.

THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW...JACK BAUER COULD DIE.
The anti-terrorism hero could by the farm- the season after this one.
Kiefer Sutherland has called it. Two years from now, he'll walk away from the CTU based (we'll not this season officially) series.As the Exec Producer, Sutherland as all but guaranteed- a brutal death scene for America's top man.
"I see Jack as a really human figure and there is something innately
tragic about people," Bauer's alter ego stated. "I think there is no winning. We're all going to die. There's something kind of sad in that, and yet there's
something really beautiful and hopeful."
Weirdly, producers have backpedaled trying to secure "Jack" a big screen movie once the show ends and/or studio heads trying to worm a tenth "day" out of the star.
