The rejuvenated Robert Downey Jr. has inked an extensive deal with
Marvel Studios that will have him not only suiting up for two more Iron
Man films, but also reprising the role of the BILLIONAIRE Tony Stark
and his heavy-metal alter ego in the upcoming superhero all-stars film
The Avengers....

While planning for Iron Man 2 has been in full swing for some time, with the most recent announcement being that Don Cheadle will be playing Col. James Rhodes instead of Terrence Howard, Marvel had not confirmed that Downey and director Jon Favreau would be back.

Well, not only will Favreau be behind the camera again, but he will
also serve as a producer on The Avengers, featuring the Marvel
characters Iron Man, the Incredible Hulk, Captain America and Thor (and
not to be confused with the laughable 1998 film of the same name
starring Ralph Fiennes and Uma Thurman ).
