Iron Man Pepper Potts Has Been Cast!

Nowhere near my choice but I like her.

 

I wonder if they're going to dye her hair or leave her blond...

 

Fine choice not because of her looks but her personality kind of fits. I like it. Not my top choice but that's probably cause I never even thought of her. I did pick Downey Jr though way in advance. So at least I guessed one right.

 

Awful choice, I'm very disappointed. I absolutely loved the supercool and brilliant casting of Downey Jr. & Howard but Paltrow is really a letdown.

 

I think she's perfectly fine. He's a got a knack for getting good talent.

Jesus. Whoever thought that an Iron Man movie would have this much A list power behind it. More and more excited with every announcement. Favs knows what he is doing.

Holy ****, that's awesome

the talent on this movie is numbing

 

Everything I hear about this film just keeps getting better. This production is reminding me very much of BB, with well known, but respected actors coming together for a comic book film.

 

Paltrow = Eww.

 

Great news, terrific actress, her husband's a rock star, plus her hair's dyed anyway, so it may very well be dyed again.

 

i think that all due to Batman Begins..

 

I wonder why Marvel always chooses blond actress to play redheads?(besides Jean of course)

 

Not someone i thought of but i'm not for or against this casting.

 

^That's exactly how I feel as well.

 

I am undecided.

 

Sure, because Jack Nicholson, Michelle Pfeiffer, Marlon Brando, Terence Stamp and Gene Hackman were all B-list actors, weren't they?

 

marvel's being very smart about this movie.

instead of having a bunch of unknowns and ultimately having the movie flop, they're getting known actors, actors who can actually act.

 

wow! I am all for it! ... just wow! I can't believe there's such a solid cast!

 

I have to say, I'm blown away, I'm not a huge Gwyneth Paltrow fan, but I can't deny her acting ability. Marvel is putting together probably the most talented cast for any Superhero movie made, not saying it will win any oscars or anything we've all seen movies with many huge stars flop, but got to hand it to Marvel, there has to be something about this movie that has Hollywood's elite wanting in, to have (3) Acadamy Award Nominated/Winner in the cast is unbeliveble.
I actually am interested in how big of a part she will play in the film, she's to big of an actress to have a couple throw away lines.

 

Superman: The movie (1978)
Marlon Brando 8 Nominations, 2 Oscars won
Gene Hackman 5 nominations, 2 oscar won
Terence Stamp 1 nomination
Trevor Howard 1 Nomination
Ned Beatty 1 nomination
Susannah York 1 nomination
Jackie Cooper 1 nomination

Batman begins (2005)
Michael Caine 6 nominations 2 Oscars won
Morgan Freeman 4 nominations 1 Oscar won
Tom Wilkinson 1 nomination
Liam Neeson 1 nomination
Ken Watanabe 1 nomination

 

This is the best cast for a superhero movie since Batman Begins. Okay, that was only 2005, but you get the point.

 

I never got the big deal about her. She's an okay actress and so so in the looks.

And isn't she TALLER than Downey jr.?
