Here's what Jon Favearu said in his Twitter page:

Jon_Favreau: Wrapped. Exhausted.

I guess the post-production will begin on IM2.

 

[Wesley Dodds]

WOW! Already? Did that seem like a freakishly fast shoot to anyone else? This is very exciting indeed!

Yeah, I'm surprised as well, unless Jon meant "wrapped" differently than I assumed he did.

 

[Chewy]

He meant for the day

 

[Raiden]

He meant for the day

Blast! Wait, how did you know that?

 

[Chewy]

In early June Kevin Feige said that there were still six weeks left on the shoot

And Favreau said on his Twitter that they are switching to filming at night this week, hence his "exhausted"

Plus, he would have said that principal photography had wrapped if principal photography had wrapped

 

[Wesley Dodds]

That makes much more sense... Way too soon for this.

Damn. Got a little buzz there...

 

[Redd]

Yeah they still have to film today and tomorrow.

And they have filming locations in July as well. They aren't done yet.

Favreau just said this on his Twitter page:

@tonyhawk Poor choice of words. I wrapped for the night, not the whole show. I woke up to 150 congrats. Still 3 weeks left.

7 minutes ago.

@tonyhawk Congrats to you on the Compton project. It looked great when we filmed Iconoclasts there. I'm sure it looks even better now.

hehe scared me there for a sec. I was like wow Fav is one hell of a director if he can finish directing a movie that fast

 

[Spider-Who?]

[R_Hythlodeus]

I have to correct you..THIS is a wrap:

 

[Redd]

looks good

 

[Angel_Faerie]

I was about to say "wow...time's moving quicker than I thought".

 

[kedrell]

Actually if he had wrapped then they would have spent the same amount of time shooting this film as they did the last - 75 days. It looks like this film's shoot is going to be more like a hundred.

 

[Raiden]

At least I wasn't the only one who mistaken his Tweet heh.

 

[Threshold]

I have to correct you..THIS is a wrap:

i love this post

 

[Iron_Stark]

Iron Man 2 Wraps on Schedule
Principal photography ends on much anticipated sequel!

By John Cerilli

The cameras started rolling on April 6 and filming ended today, July 18. After 71 days of shooting, “Iron Man 2” wrapped principal photography—right on schedule!

So how did it go? Was it tougher getting “Iron Man 2” shot than it was “Iron Man?” To find out, we went directly to one of the key players in the Marvel movie world, Kevin Feige, Producer of "Iron Man 2" and President of Marvel Studios!

"Shooting 'Iron Man 2' was a fantastic experience and we couldn't be happier. Although there were many challenges in making this film, having Jon Favreau, Robert Downey, Gwyneth Paltrow and almost the entire crew from the first film back on board, allowed us to hit the ground running as everyone was instantly familiar with each other from day one,” Feige told Marvel.com. “This dynamic allowed us to get done what we needed on a day to day basis and was a big factor in why we finished slightly ahead of schedule.”

Of course, we all know by now there’s also a bunch of new A-List actors interacting with the crew from the first film to make “Iron Man 2,” but according to Feige, it never became a concern.

“Scarlett Johansson, Mickey Rourke, Sam Rockwell and especially Don Cheadle all stepped right in and meshed well with our returning cast,” he said.

Additionally, the first time around on “Iron Man” afforded them keen knowledge when it came to producing key aspects of “Iron Man 2.”

”From our experience on the first film, we learned what works and doesn't work in terms of shooting practical versus CGI especially with the Iron Man suit,” Feige explained. “This enabled us to be much more efficient in many departments, making it a much smoother experience.”

But if you think making a film of this magnitude isn’t without its own particular obstacles, guess again.

"What’s more difficult in shooting a sequel is that expectations are much higher for this film and we really want to top what we did on the first film,” he said. “Every day involved working extremely hard in order to improve upon what we did on the first film."

So now with “Iron Man 2” in the can, what happens before we all get to see “Iron Man 2” on May 7, 2010?

"The next step for us is beginning the post production process which is extensive and filled with its own set of challenges,” Feige said. “It is also a very exciting time because you get to see all the hard work from the hundreds of cast and crew members begin to come to life."

That's excellent to hear. I have real faith that this will be an excellent movie. Looking forward to the finished product.

 

[Casius--J]

I really cant wait to see this movie, I was honestly more pumped to see this than i was for any other movie that came out this year!

 

[Doctor Jones]

Awesome. Now for SDCC. Hopefully there's some great footage. And ten months of post is alot of time.

 

[Immortalfire]

Yayyy!!! t:

2010, hurry up!

 

[mjbull23]

WOW. 71 days is a lightning quick shoot. Good deal, can't wait for next Summer to Roll Around.

 

[chiefchirpa]

Kudos. Favreau is an efficient as hell director.

 

[TheVileOne]

All this and we still don't know who is playing Hawkeye. Or do we?

Or was the Hawkeye stuff premature or is it just a small role?

One wonders .
