Variety is reporting that after several weeks of speculation, actor Mickey Rourke will indeed star in the forthcoming Iron Man sequel. Reportedly, Rourke was dissatisfied with Marvel Studios’ initial offer of $250,000 to play an Iron Man villain and the deal at first fell through.

During this time, director Jon Favreau remained hopeful to snag the veteran actor. Even Iron Man himself, Robert Downey Jr., got involved in the actor’s recruitment. Taking a page out of The Avengers, Downey invited Rourke to join the cast of Iron Man 2 during a roundtable interview with Newsweek’s David Ansen. Sources claim that Downey’s candor sealed the deal with Rourke, who in turn agreed to salary terms with Marvel.

Scarlett Johansson Blows Nose For Charity

December 17, 2008 · Posted in The Spirit · 1 Comment 

Actress Scarlett Johansson, who is starring in the upcoming comic book movie The Spirit, appeared on the Wednesday, December 17, 2008 episode of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.  During the appearance, Johansson complained about a cold that she claimed to have caught from Samuel L. Jackson.

Samuel L. Jackson is a co-star with Scarlett Johansson in The Spirit movie.  Because the cold came about through the meeting of two major stars, Johansson felt that the cold must have significant value.  Leno provided Johansson with a tissue to use to blow her nose.

In order to determine if the cold did in fact have significant value, the tissue that Johansson blew her nose on will be auctioned of on eBay starting on Thursday, December 18, 2008.  Neither Scarlett Johansson nor Jay Leno will profit from the used tissue, as all the proceeds will be donated to USA Harvest.  USA Harvest is the largest all volunteer feeding organization in America.
