Munn’s Scene Cut From “Iron Man 2”

Munn’s Scene Cut From “Iron Man 2”

May 4, 2010 By Mike Hickerson 5 Comments

In March, G4’s Olivia Munn teased that she’d filmed a scene for the upcoming “Iron Man 2.”

However, when the final cut of the film hits theaters this week, Munn’s fans will be disappointed to learn that she won’t be in the final cut.

Director Jon Favreau says that her scene was cut for tonal reasons in the final product.

“She did a very funny comedic take on a girl that [Tony] was with at his birthday party,” Favreau explained to MTV News. “She pops up again later in his bedroom. But the way the scene went down, that part of the movie didn’t want to have comedy because it was starting to get a little bit serious and started to bump tonally.”

“As a scene it was great,” continued Favreau. “But when we put the whole movie together, that’s one of the things that happens. It’s happened to me many times as an actor, but we called her up and said, ‘There’s another thing that we’re shooting now, we’d love to have you in the film.'”

Favreau also indicated that Munn’s original scenes will be included on the eventual “Iron Man 2” DVD.

Favrueau was also quick to deny rumors that Munn has been cast as the Wasp for the upcoming “Avengers” movie.

    She was in a scene at the beginning, though. Trust me, I saw the movie last Saturday.

    Just saw the movie. Kicked butt. Olivia is in it at the very begining. Worth it to sit through the credits to see the easter egg at the end. Cant wait for that movie.
