Justin Theroux Is The Guy Behind Iron Man 2
After dragging their feet on locking down Jon Favreau, Marvel is picking up the pace in hopes of getting their Iron Man sequel into theaters in the spring of 2010. They just announced that they’ve tapped actor Justin Theroux to write the script'and while we’re sure they have their reasons, it strikes us as an odd choice.
Like all blockbusters, this one’s sure to be re-re-re-written along the way,but still'Justin’s only writing credit is next month’s Tropic Thunder, and he shares that with Ben Stiller and Idiocracy writer Etan Coen. Whatever it was they saw in Mr. Theroux, he’s certainly had some memorable movie scenes throughout his 12 year career. Check out some of his best on screen moments below.
The Baxter:
JT pops, locks and drops it in this flick from the guys who did The State.
American Psycho:
Coveting another man’s business card in this classic Bret Easton Ellis adaptation.
Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle:
Realizing Justin Long’s fantasy: cold-cocking Drew Barrymore.
Mulholland Drive:
A quiet (but tense) moment from the incomprehensible David Lynch flick. Don’t get it? Don’t worry, you’re not supposed to.
The Ten:
A taste of his role as Jesus (yes, Jesus) in another joint from the State/Stella/Reno 911/Wet Hot American Summer crew.
