Robert Downey Jr Talks Mickey Rourke

Downey Jr: “Mickey Rourke is NOT the Crimson Dynamo”

Robert Downey Jr. has addressed the issue of Mickey Rourke’s involvement in the upcoming Iron Man sequel.



“That’s actually incorrect,” Downey told MTV News when asked if Rourke was being considered for the aforementioned Iron Man rogue. When pressed if, instead of Crimson Dynamo, Rourke was up for the role of Whiplash, another potential role bandied about on blogs these days, Downey had a more cryptic response.



“I can neither confirm nor deny that,” said Downey. “Or maybe it’s some semblance of both. Here, I can tell you everything about the story except I won’t give away the ending. The nerd stuff is top-drawer security.”
