Johansson Looking Hot as Black Widow!
Popwatch couldn't help themselves and have given us an early preview at this week's cover of Entertainment Weekly. On it we see Iron Man 2!
Iron Man 2 Photo Shows Rourke as Whiplash
The cover shows the title characters of Iron Man 2 including Robert Downey Jr., Mickey Rourke (Whiplash) and Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow). Inside the magazine you can see more photos including a better shot of Johansson looking all dark and seductive.
When Marvel Studios first announced the sequel, no one was sure what the movie would be about. Downey, director Jon Favreau, screenwriter Justin Theroux, and the rest of the creative team struck upon the idea of introducing two very different foes for Stark. On one side is Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell), a fast-talking weapons manufacturer who fancies himself the next Tony Stark; on the other, Vanko, who, while incarcerated in a Russian prison, creates his own battle-suit, which shoots devastating, whip-like beams. Hammer and Whiplash join forces to take down Downey’s character, Tony Stark. Rourke, for his part, wanted to instill some lightness into the role of the heavy. "I told Favreau, 'I don't want to just play him as a one-dimensional p----,'" he says. "He let me have a cockatoo, who I talk to and get drunk with while I’m making my suit."

Johansson as Black Widow
With the addition of Black Widow, Paltrow claims that their might be some girl on girl action. Well, not really, but I can hope can't I?
Adding more flesh and blood to the new movie, Scarlett Johansson joined the cast as Stark’s mysterious new assistant, Natasha, who has an alter ego of her own, Black Widow. That introduction inevitably sparks romantic tension between Stark and former assistant Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow), who’s been promoted to CEO of Stark Industries. "The men want it to be, like, 'Ooh, the girls are fighting over Tony,' but it's not as standard as that," says Paltrow. "There's a weird male catfight fantasy. Downey agrees. He believes what differentiates the franchise from other superhero series can be summarized as follows: "We're horny. Not, like, can't-bring-your-kids horny, but just…horny."
Iron Man 2 opens to theaters on May 7th, 2010.
