Iron Man With A Fury, Finally

Written by GL

The Iron Man movie is finally coming up: the filming is on, the cast is set and the promotional stuff is leaking out. To add more fuel to his fire, we'd like to hit you readers out there with the newest news on the upcoming feature, and it involves none other than the famous Pulp Fiction star pictured above.

Just released information states (for a fact) that Samuel L. Jackson will be shooting scenes as the rough-tough, super spy Nick Fury. It doesn't say how big his role is, but it could be assumed to be a little bit of a cameo.

On a side note, Nick Fury was one of the films Marvel Studios announced as one of the projects. The movie, based on the superhero with military roots, has screenwriter Andrew Marlowe attached. Does this mean that we might be seeing a Nick Fury spin-off as well?

This comes in light of rumors about a Silver Surfer spin-off from the Fantastic Four franchise. Will the madness ever stop? Let's hope not.

Iron Man is directed by Jon Favreau and stars Robert Downey Jr., Terrence Howard, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jeff Bridges. Set to open on May 2, 2008. Keep your hats on until then.

This is the best news ever! My fave role of his was actually Shaft, remake or not. :)
