The casting had been rumored but not confirmed as early as January. Also joining the film is Scarlett Johansson who will play Stark's lover and rival Natasha Romanoff, also known as the Black Widow.
The Black Widow role had been courted by "The Wolfman's" Emily Blunt, but contract issues prevented her from taking the role. The movie has already seen several casting changes, most notably last October with Don Cheadle replacing Terrence Howard as Stark's friend and ally Jim Rhodes.
The tentatively titled "Iron Man 2" is set to hit theaters on May 7, 2010.
