First Official Shot of Tony Stark
April 27, 2007 Comments
USA Today has scored the first official look at Robert Downey Jr. as billionaire hero Tony Stark in Iron Man. Seen here forging his original Iron Man suit, it's clear RDJ has been working out for the role, and looks as if he'd belong in the Men of Metallurgy calendar as much as in a comic book film. But I want it to be clear that when I say that I'm not discounting any of the current Men of Metallurgy; quite the opposite, RDJ could never replace any of you. You all perfectly embody both your months and the spirit of metallurgy. Maybe if one of you died or something Downey could come in, but then and only then, and I don't even want to think about that.
