Shane Black in Final Talks for 'Iron Man 3'

Source: Variety, Deadline

 

As we reported in last week's 'Superhero Round-Up', Marvel Studios has tapped Shane Black - director of 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang' - as a potential director for the third installment of the 'Iron Man' film franchise. Now, according to multiple sources, Black has entered into final negotiations with the studio and is expected to finalize the deal at any time.

This should come as good news to fans of all kinds - fans of Shane Black can be happy because the director has another shot at a huge franchise (his last big franchise was 'Lethal Weapon'), while fans of Iron Man can rest assured that the third film is being put in the right hands. In addition to working with Robert Downey Jr. previously (on 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang'), Black apparently did some uncredited work on the first Iron Man script and it's rumored that RDJ approached Black before filming for advice on nailing the "Tony Stark patter".

Barring a total breakdown in negotiations, (and with a little luck) we may be seeing a return to form for the Iron Man movies. With Black's extensive experience in action films and his knack for snappy dialog, this could be a smart business move for Marvel after 2010's 'Iron Man 2' failed to live up to fan and critical expectation.

I dont perticularly want mandarin to be the villain really. i've heard that they were considering that when faverou was directing, but i dont know of that's the case now since black may be signed on. i'd rather have titanium man, ultron, or something like that...however i guess if they do it right, ANYTHING is possible. just dont screw it up damnit. i happen to like the iron man character. ROCK ON SHANE BLACK!!

agreed @Hector many people seemed to like Iron Man 2 more than not. But Black seems to be a good choice for the director.

Wait, there was an Iron Man 2? I thought it was just an extended trailer for The Avengers or some crap like that.

I agree with Fungusmonkey. Having seen Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, giving him to Iron Man is like giving the Iron Man role to Robert Downey Jr. Please sign this guy to Iron Man 3 or I will go berzerk and go on a rampage.

I hope you get the job to direct Iron Man 3 Shane.

 

By the way Iron Man 2 did not fail to live up to fan and critical expectation entirely. Some people liked Iron Man 2 and others did not like the fun and terrfic superhero movie sequel.

I'll be really excited about a third movie if Shane enters the project. I have a feeling it would be awesome!
