The industry-record bow naturally yielded a studio high for Warner Bros. and personal bests for director Christopher Nolan and cast

So What Was All The Fuss About? Marvel Locks In Jon Favreau For 'Iron Man 2'
EXCLUSIVE: It's not officially announced yet, but I'm told that Marvel Studios and Iron Man director Jon Favreau have reached a deal for him to helm the sequel, due out in 2010. (Robert Downey Jr.had a sequel clause in his contract so he's on board.)
