Iron Man fans groaned when studio execs said that director Shane Black would not be handling script duties for the upcoming Marvel Universe movie but instead handed off the screenwriting job to Drew Pearce.
The folks at Cinema Blend made news today by confirming that Black would be co-writing the movie with Pearce.
In fact, the word out of Cinema Blend was that Iron Man 3 was all about Black with the veteran action filmmaker even providing the core ideas for the script.
No explanations yet on the confusion on what should be rock solid prep for a major action franchise with Robert Downey Jr. Some question whether Black can write a PG-13 action movie since his past films like Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and Lethal Weapon were more mature in nature.
Fans, what tips do you have for Black when it comes to wish lists for Iron Man 3? I’m guessing that more scenes with the Black Widow are a given.
