So this is exciting. According to Hollywood Reporter, Shane Black is in talks to direct Iron Man 3. Jon Favreau said goodbye to the franchise after almost everyone was dissappointed in Iron Man 2(I really like it, though I haven't watched it since the theater).
But Shane Black is very interesting news. His Kiss Kiss Bang Bang was the best movie of 2005 and he's written some classic Hollywood action movies such as Lethal Weapon and The Last Boy Scout. Plus he's got some acting experience from a little movie called Predator.
This is brilliant news, if Black actually gets the job. Having worked with Robert Downey Jr. before, I'm sure he's able to write Tony Stark to suit Downey perfectly and the action beats should be good as well, definitely better than in the original Iron Man. And as Robert Downey Jr has approval over the new director, I think this has a chance to actually coming to fruition. I, for one, can't wait.
