This promo video for 'Iron Man' sequel also reels in glimpses at Mickey Rourke's Whiplash, Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow, Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury and Don Cheadle's War Machine.
While "Iron Man 2" is generally an action movie, it will still offer sexual tension between its major characters. Through its first trailer, the movie exposes how Gwyneth Paltrow's Pepper Potts leaves Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark aka Iron Man yearning for more when Potts gives his helmet a smooch in answer to his request for a kiss.
The growing romance between the two is only a part of the trailer, though. The rest of the promo video displays more of the actions the movie has in store. Mickey Rourke's Whiplash cutting Stark's race car in half, Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow knocking down men, and Don Cheadle's War Machine providing Iron Man with his aide are some of the scenes teased.
Scripted by "Tropic Thunder" co-scribbler Justin Theroux, "Iron Man 2" sees the return of director Jon Favreau to the helming seat behind Marvel's superhero. This follow-up to 2008's "Iron Man" will also have Sam Rockwell portraying fast-talking weapons manufacturer Justin Hammer aside from all of the already-mentioned characters.
Don Cheadle takes over the role of Colonel James "Rhodey" Rhodes from Terrence Howard, who starred as the character in the first movie, while Samuel L. Jackson will be seen reprising his role as Nick Fury. Paramount Pictures eyes to distribute this actioner in theaters across the U.S. on May 7, 2010.
