We all heard of the lucky bums who got to see a package of pre-approved scenes from the upcoming Iron Man movie at the recent San Diego Comic-Con. Well, according to a post on the official Iron Man MySpace page, Jon Favreau – director of the 2008 movie – we’ll be seeing some of that footage very soon.
Posting in the forums accompanying the site, Favreau responds to fans clamoring for the footage that apparently blew away Comic-Con attendees.
I hear you all loud and clear. You want to see the footage that we brought to SDCC. Why not post it in HD instead of having everyone download a grainy bootleg? I agree. I am trying to get a version out to you ASAP. This is a big movie, however, and it takes time to get the proper approvals from all parties involved.
I am happy to report that both Marvel and Paramount have agreed to get a version of the footage out to you very soon. I will report the specifics when I get them. Thanks for your enthusiasm and patience.
So we’ll keep an eye out on the MySpace page to let you know the moment that this footage makes its way to public consumption.
