So, is Iron Man 4 a Go?

Lately, Robert Downey Jr. has been very shifty with respect to the future of the franchise. He is contractually obligated to do Avengers: Age of Ultron (duh) and Avengers 3, but he has also tended to sound like more solo Iron Man films are off of the table, what with being a relatively new father, getting older, etc.

But a recent clip from Ellen has us thinking that the arc reactor still has some spark in it.

Now, it looks like this is confirmation that Iron Man 4 is happening, after RDJ saying last week that he’d only do the film if Mel Gibson directed it.

…Does that mean that Mel Gibson is in talks to direct a Marvel movie?

Marvel made $1.2 Billion on Iron Man 3, so they’re not likely to give up such a cash cow without a fight.

Avengers: Age of Ultron is due out on May 1st, 2015.

They rest of this interview is slated to air tomorrow.
