Robert Downey Jr. has signed up for two more 'Avengers' movies. So for those fo you who shed a tear at the thought of no more Iron Man, well, he's sticking around for quite a while longer.
As per Marvel.com, while his return was in doubt, something to do with arguments over pay packages (he wanted like a billion dollars or something ridic), Robert and the studio have finally come to an agreement which will see him reprise the role of Tony Stark/Iron Man in 'Marvel's The Avengers 2' and 'Marvel's The Avengers 3'. You know he earned 50 million for the first Avengers movie? And he had the audacity to argue for even more for the sequels? I mean come ON, there are people starving all over the world and these guys have so much money they could wipe their arses, blow their noses and start fires with dollars bills without ever feeling the pinch.
The website's official statement read: ''I am Iron Man.' Tony Stark's famous closing line to the very first 'Iron Man' film takes on new life today as Marvel is pleased to announce the signing of Robert Downey, Jr. to reprise the role of the 'billionaire, genius, playboy, philanthropist'... Under the two-picture agreement, Downey will star as Tony Stark/Iron Man in 'Marvel's The Avengers 2' and 'Marvel's The Avengers 3' Downey is represented at CAA by Bryan Lourd, Jim Toth and Matt Leaf and by his attorneys Tom Hansen and Stewart Brookman of the firm Hansen Jacobson.'
Good news for all the RDJ fans out there. Are you excited for Joss Whedon's The Avengers 2?
