As everyone has to know by now, Iron Man II is currently in post-production with a planned release date of May 7, 2010. The cast has been shaken up a bit; Don Cheadle is taking over the role of Col. James “Rhodey” Rhodes (War Machine) played in the last film by Terrence Howard, the comeback kid, Mickey Rourke, will take on the role of Ivan Vanko (Whiplash), and last but certainly not least Miss Scarlett Johansson will be playing Natasha Romanoff (Black Widow). To the untrained eye these may look like great additions overall, but not so fast…

Can the movie handle having two hot leading lady on set? What is poor Pepper Potts to do? Celeb TV reported that Gwyneth Paltrow is not happy and just might boycott some of the planned publicity (including this week’s Comic-con) for Iron Man II. I’m sure Gwyneth feels a bit threatened by the addition of the busty twenty-five year old to the franchise and this week’s cover of Entertainment Weekly with Scarlett shown front and center with the boys likely made matters worse. It’s like high school over again, the popular, all American girl, cheerleader just doesn’t know what to do when the slutty new girl transfers in and steals all of her limelight. Come on Gwyneth, your almost 37 (ancient in dog and or female Hollywood years, unless you’re Helen Mirren of course); let’s stop the hatin’ and just be happy you’re still in A list movies.
