not David Hasselhoff... |
According
to Ain't
It Cool News, a high profile actor begins a short stint
filming a cameo for Iron Man today. Heck, superhero
movies have cameos all over the place. This one's crucial
because, since Iron Man marks the first official
Marvel Studios production, it can establish characters that
can move from film to film, property to property, and pave
the way for their Avengers film.
It also
makes a lot of sense for this character to appear in Iron
Man, as when he entered the modern-day Marvel Universe,
Tony Stark was there. Of course, this is actually his Ultimate
appearance -- for if Moriarty at AICN is right, today's
the day that Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD, appears in a big-screen
project. And the guy playing him? Well, let's say it's no
stretch, and that in
an interview with Fanboy Planet last summer, he said
he'd love to do the role.
Looks
like he got his way.
This
won't be Nick Fury's first live-action appearance; that
distinction actually went for a Fox TV movie starring David
Hasselhoff. Picture that for a moment, and be glad that
Jon Favreau will shoot this without irony, and give us the
righteous Fury we want.
