Robert Downey Jr. revealed to the Associated Press at ShoWest in an interview about his upcoming film Due Date with Zach Galifianakis that he plans to “suit up” for a third Iron Man soon. While no direct quote was published by the AP, it’s pretty safe to assume that Iron Man himself of all people would have the inside information on the future development of the franchise.
His quote revealed no hardfast details like production start times or film release dates, but at least we know that the Iron Man franchise is pushing forward. Downey has already revealed that Iron Man will play a pivotal role in the upcoming Marvel release The Avengers, but there is even speculation that Iron Man 3 will be released before The Avengers.
Iron Man 2 is out on May 7 and in the press lead up to the highly anticipated release we will surely here more about the future of the Iron Man franchise.
How do you feel about planning a 3rd sequel before the 2nd sequel is even released?
