IRON MAN 2

Actor Robert Downey, Jr. has finally chimed in on the casting changes for the sequel. "I had nothing to do with that decision," Downey Jr. said. "I love Terrence very very much.

Here's what happens too: things happen and you wind up commenting on them before you've actually talked to the people and it's in poor taste."
