‘Iron Man 2′ Ready For 2010 — April 30 To Be Exact
By Jamie • May 6th, 2008 • Category: NewsFollowing Iron Man’s impressive $98.6 million debut this weekend, Marvel Studios has set a date for a sequel: April 30, 2010. Meanwhile, the comic-book-based entertainment company has unveiled the roster of superhero movies it plans to release during the next three years:
· Thor — June 4, 2010
· The First Avenger: Captain America — May 6, 2011
· The Avengers — July 2011 (bringing together the characters of Iron Man, the Incredible Hulk, Captain America, and Thor in one movie)
· Ant-Man — In development
All of these features will be financed, developed, and produced by Marvel. While the company had enjoyed great success for more than a decade with movies based on many of its popular characters — including Spider-Man, X-Men, and the Fantastic Four — it only recently started fully financing and producing its own films (and distributing them via an agreement with Paramount). Iron Man was the first major release under this new plan; The Incredible Hulk arrives in theaters on June 13.
