Tom Cruise as Ironman

in kmc headlines, i read that tom cruise is going to play ironman. *gasp* i couldn't and still can't believe it! 😱 what a shock to the system and almost sent me through the roof with that bit. with the roles that he normally chooses, i truly didn't expect him to play a superhero ever. also, i wasn't aware that he was a fan of ironman. to imagine him in the role of ironman is a pretty cool concept and a nice change of pace from what he's been known to play. i checked the news at superherohype.com earlier, and there's nearly no articles on ironman and if tom is to play him. does anyone care to elaborate on this news or have any links that give more detail on tom being ironman?

that true that Tom Cruise will play his role as Anthony Stark a.k.a Iron-Man?maybe Val Kilmer you know!!!!

i don't know. if this news were mentioned at shh, i'd believe it full on. here at kmc, it just sounds like a wonderful rumour. val kilmer...nah! getting old and fat!

Well that ain'0t bad news but still I would like to have a Tony Stark that is a but taller then Tom.

how tall is tom cruise anyways? if not tom, then who would you like to see as tony stark?

i think tom cruise would make an awesome iron man, i mean he rocked in last samurai proving he still holds that action hero genre which he hasnt been in since MI2 so ya hed be a good iron man

He's good in action flics but then they pick shot women cuz of him also, so he looks taller. He's like 5" something. The guy that played Nottingham in Witchblade the movie would make a good Tony Stark. He's not really an A class actor but he looks like Tony.

Is WarMachine gonna be in the movie? Or any other heroes that u find in Ironman stories?

this is true but lets not substitute looks for acting ability here for example the king pin in the comics hes this huge fat white guy in daredevil hes micheal clarke duncan so i dont think it matters what the person looks like in the end its about ability

i wanted to see last samuria my buddy saw it and says it was pretty badass, yeah i hate when they screw up what a character is, they are thinkin of vin diesel or the rock to play a potential eddie brock F*CK THAT! they look nothing like him, brock is a tall white guy with blonde hair. the only dude who looks like him is brock lesnar, but he cant act. but back to iron man i think tom could pull it off.

o he could so pull it off but if he doesnt accept maybe brian van holt

you know how in the lotr movies, they did that whole height illusion thing? maybe they could do that for tom as ironman...but don't know how good that'll look...

that wouldnt work it only works to make people taller and ian mccellan is already realy tall, so it wasnt that hard to find short people

i mean....they had to make john rys davies and the hobbits really short compared to gandalf.

Hey that is a good Idea, but I don't think they r gonna use that tech just to present one guy more taller then all others. In Lotr they had to do more then 1 guy, so it makes it all worth it. Allltogether tom will do a very good job that I'm sure of.

Awesome. Just awesome.

that'd be awsome if cruise played stark tom cruise i think is one of the best actors ever

i agree that tom cruise is an amazing actor. he's performs action scenes well and with his level of commitment to his characters in those movies.

btw, has anyone heard about tom cruise as ironman anywhere else besides kmc?

I think maybe.... George Clooney?

george sounds cool. hopefully he'd do better in this movie than batman. if he were to be ironman.

tom's too short... and in a film already riddled with sfx for the action scenes, i don't think they'd wanna waste more money on that height illusion sfx when they can just as easily get another actor who is simply taller than tom, and who'd probably take less money too... tom cruise can pull it off, he's a good actor, and he can pull of anthoy stark too, but he's not tall enough...
