"Oh, wow," Favreau said when MTV mentioned visiting the set and catching a glimpse of concept art featuring Gwyneth Paltrow in a tight red-and-yellow outfit, sexily soaring above the ground.

"There was some talk of Stark having a dream where he was fantasizing about her. So there is some truth to that one. But it never made it into the movie, no."

"Yes, I was quite pleased with that one," Favreau laughed, when asked about the internet speculation that it was Thor in this image:

Favreau's response? "No, that's not Thor."

Iron Man 2 is out now in the UK and will be released in the US on May 7th.

I knew it! As if Thor would be in prison. In Monaco. At the same time as Tony Stark. In Iron Man 2. Honestly! :D

Rescue would look kool on the big screen, but wouldn't be too good for the story.

Great find. WTF on the camera being on that random not-Thor guy?

Did anyone actually think it was? Seriously!?
breakUbatman - 5/4/2010, 12:55 AM
I wasnt sure at first but once I watched the movie I knew

@ Sebz I didnt realize it was "that guy" until your comment
deadshallrise - 5/4/2010, 3:14 AM
The guy in the cell appears soon after Stark talks to Vanko. If you haven't seen it yet, i won't spoil it.

I noticed something else in "that scene" or should i say heard something else. Just listen carefully and you can hear a specific name being called out in the prison. I won't say when it is so listen carefully throughout the entire prison section. It's very interesting.
superdog - 5/4/2010, 7:09 AM
is the name being called out donald blake? :)
AshnaVari - 5/4/2010, 8:25 AM
It may well be.................and just because Favs says it's not Thor doesn't mean it's not someone else?!
marvel72 - 5/4/2010, 10:50 AM
i can't wait for thor if its got thor kicking ass,the classic villains such as loki,the enchantress,the destroyer & hela the film is gonna be brilliant.
THE LORD OF THE RINGS OF COMICBOOK MOVIES.....MAYBE.
