Fanboys Rejoice! Shane Black to Direct, Maybe Pen Iron Man 3

Writer-director Shane Black is reportedly in negotiations to direct Iron Man 3 , taking over from series helmer Jon Favreau for the threequel, which is already slated for release on May 3, 2013. But hey, no pressure! Two years should be plenty of time for the guy who wrote Lethal Weapon in six weeks. Besides, Black’s got plenty of qualifications that should inspire fanboy confidence. Such as:

A Puking Tony Stark was Supposed to Open Iron Man 2

I already like the movie better. In this past summer’s pretty disappointing Iron Man 2 , the movie opens with Iron Man calmly walking out onto the platform of an open plane cargo door. Them without comment, he jumps out and pretty routinely flies down to the applause of adoring fans — followed by two hours of explosions.

Late Night Highlights: Alec Baldwin Calls His Mother and Tina Fey ‘Whores’ and Robert Downey Jr. Gets Sexual

Last night, Robert Downey Jr. made his last promotional television appearance for Iron Man 2 ever. Thrilled to be finished hawking, he may have shared a little too much with Craig Ferguson about his last sexual experience and that time he Nair-ed his facial hair.

Joss Whedon Tops Louis Letterier for Avengers Gig

It had been rumored for a little while, and now it looks like Joss Whedon is in negotiations to direct Marvel’s all-star team-up The Avengers . (You may remember Clash of the Titans helmer Louis Letterier was also on that shortlist .) The Buffy the Vampire Slayer just wrapped his last gig, directing an episode of Glee ; this will surely prove invaluable when Iron Man leads his fellow heroes in a rousing, Auto-Tuned group-sing of JoJo’s “Too Little Too Late.” [ Deadline ]
