The cast and crew of “Iron Man 2” are hard at work on the movie, scheduled for release in theaters on May 7, 2010.
Luckily for us, Entertainment Tonight recently got a chance to visit the set and nabbed some great behind-the-scenes footage, interviews and fun buzz.
Directed by Jon Favreau, the sequel stars Robert Downey, Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Mickey Rourke, Sam Rockwell, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson, Garry Shandling, John Slattery, Kate Mara, Clark Gregg and Olivia Munn.
Sure hope the movie lives up to its hype!

There’s a “Barbarella” remake in the works, which sounds fun. The original 1968 film starred Jane Fonda as a sexy inter-space mercenary charged with stopping the evil Durand-Durand. It was directed by her husband at the time, Roger Vadim.
The remake already has a director – Robert Luketic – but who do you think should play Barbarella?

We’ve all been patiently – ok, impatiently – awaiting “Iron Man 2,” which hits theaters May 7, 2010. The cast and crew were on hand at Comic-Con this past weekend to stir up a little buzz.
Scarlett Johansson, who plays Black Widow, said she kicks some “major ass,” and director Jon Favreau says don’t expect to see a cliffhanger, because this film will be self-contained. Don Cheadle’s long-awaited “War Machine” also makes an appearance, and Sam Rockwell talks about his character, Justin Hammer.
Check out the clips from MTV. Are you excited about “Iron Man 2”?

Can’t wait to see "Iron Man 2," coming in 2010. Scarlett Johansson appeared at Comic-Con 2009 to talk a bit about her role as Black Widow and what sort of stuff she’ll be doing in the movie.

I’ve liked Kate Mara since I saw her in "Shooter" with Mark Wahlberg (one of my favorite movies of 2007) and "Zoom" (she was one of the only good things about that 2006 movie with Tim Allen).
She’ll also be seen in the upcoming "Iron Man 2," along with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Pots, and Robert Downey, Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man.
Mara is currently in Lower Manhattan shooting scenes for "Happy Thank You More Please," a bittersweet story "about six New Yorkers trying to figure out their lives," according to this Web site.

Ryan Reynolds has been out and about promoting his new movie, “The Proposal” (which is fabulous, by the way, but I snuck into the theater and only saw the last hour, so I’ll see the whole movie and post a review this weekend). On David Letterman the other night, Reynolds talked about being married to Scarlett Johansson and his beekeeping hobby. Yes, bees.

Chic, independent and cosmopolitan. That’s what Scarlett Johansson needed to score a cool modeling gig with Mango Clothes. Guess she’s got that all that in droves!
Here’s a fun little video from CelebTV about the starlet’s new gig for pal Penelope Cruz’s Mango Clothing 2009. You can catch Johansson next in "Iron Man 2," playing Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow opposite Robert Downey, Jr. It’s due in theaters May 7, 2010. Nice way to kick off the summer movie season next year.

Amazing the things you learn on Twitter. I’ve been following director Jon Favreau’s updates (follow him yourself at http://twitter.com/jon_favreau), and he posted today that this was Scarlett Johansson’s first day on the "Iron Man 2" set in her Black Widow outfit. "You’ve never heard a crew get so quiet so fast," tweets Favreau.
Johansson plays Natasha Romanoff in the "Iron Man" sequel, but this is the first confirmation that she would indeed appear as Black Widow in costume, as well.
Favreau also confirmed that Samuel L. Jackson would appear in the film as Nick Fury. We knew that, but there …read more

Casting for "Iron Man 2" continues, with Kate Mara and Clark Gregg being the most recent actors to join the sequel. It’s directed by Jon Favreau, who also helmed the first movie.
I’ve been a big fan of Mara’s for a while, and especially loved her role in "Shooter," opposite Mark Wahlberg. Her character in "Iron Man 2" is being kept under wraps for now (anyone heard anything?). Scarlett Johansson is playing Black Widow, and Gwyneth Paltrow is returning as Pepper Pots.
Gregg is reprising his role as Agent Phil Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D. I’m guessing he might play a major …read more
