Jeff Bridges has joined the cast of Jon Favreau’s Iron Man film, slated to begin filming in Los Angeles this March.
Kevin Feige, Marvel's president of production, said they had been in talks with the actor for some time. "He's excited about doing a movie like this, and we're excited to have him in this particular role. There are many facets to this character which I can't discuss, but looking at the spectrum of all of Jeff's roles, this fits in nicely with the man who played 'Starman,' 'Tucker,' 'Big Lebowski' with a little bit 'Tron' thrown in.
"This rounds out our ensemble, and I think it's one of the strongest casts ever assembled for one of our films."
Bridges joins a cast that already includes Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow and Terrence Howard.
