Robert Downey Jr. (And Everyone In El Lay) Hits Up Coldplay Concert

Robert Downey Jr. And Everyone In El Lay Hits Up Coldplay Concert

Last night, most of El Lay piled into the world-famous Hollywood Bowl to watch Coldplay in concert.

More than a few famous folk had tickets to see the British band rock the bowl before they play American Idol tomorrow.

Among their celeb fans was a VERY enthusiastic Robert Downey Jr. and his producer wife. They recently had a baby, and he has been VERY busy promoting The Avengers. This concert must have been a well deserved break for them!

Other famous fans that took the time to smell the roses hear the music included:

Chris Hemsworth Admits Avengers Only Assembled Because Of Downey Jr.

Robert Downey Jr Scarlett Johansson The Avengers Chris Hemsworth Chris Evans Jeremy Renner Gwyneth Paltrow, Mark Ruffalo, Samuel L Jackson, Joss Whedon Film Flickers Good Morning America

The Avengers hasn’t even opened in the States yet and it has ALREADY raked in almost $200 million overseas.

Are you kidding us??

If somehow the rock you’ve been living under doesn’t have wireless internet, you need to check out the most recent trailer.

The cast is terrific, the action looks phenomenal, and Joss Whedon’s script and direction appear spectacular. This movie is set to own the Summer of 2012.

That’s why we’re SHOCKED to hear that this pinnacle of superhero pics almost never was…

According to Chris “The Hammer” Hemsworth, it never would have been possible if it weren’t for Robert Downey Jr. and the success of his Iron Man films.

There was a time not too long ago when Hollywood execs weren’t sure whether

Scarlett Johansson And Jeremy Renner Getting Their Own Avengers Spin-Offs?

Scarlett Johansson And Jeremy Renner Getting Their Own <em>Avengers</em> Spin-Offs?

The Avengers hasn't even come out yet, but Robert Downey Jr is positive the flick will be the grandfather of multiple Marvel movies!

Iron Man 3 — which is kinda of an Avengers spin-off — is already in production, and RDJ recently revealed that movies for Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) could be next!

At a press conference RDJ told reporters:

"All three franchises that we’ve launched so far had to work. If this didn’t work, it [would have] affected all the previous franchises extremely adversely.

There’s also the potential for additional franchises based on how strongly people are reacting to Jeremy , Scarlett and Mark [Ruffalo, who plays The Hulk]."

So Exciting!!

Based off the success of Avengers's other spin-offs Thor, Captain America and the first two Iron Man movies — the odds of Scar Jo and Renner getting their own 90 minutes seems totally within reach!

Would U want to see a Hawkeye or Black Widow movie??

Jessica Chastain In Talks To Appear In Iron Man 3!

Nice!

A supremely talented actress like her will fit RIGHT in among the rest of this cast!

Jessica Chastain is reportedly in negotiations to appear in the Shane Black-directed third installment of the Iron Man franchise. Jessica will play a "sexy scientist," who is apparently just as smart as the superhero Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey Jr.!

Apparently, the Academy Award nominee was initially the top choice for the part, but she unfortunately couldn't commit due to scheduling conflicts with other projects, including the Kathryn Bigelow-directed Osama Bin Laden movie!

However, she must have

First, Sir Ben Kingsley and now this??

You're spoiling us!

Guy Pearce is in final talks to join the cast of the highly-anticipated Iron Man 3 as Aldrich Killian, a geneticist who helps create the Extremis virus, a serum used to boost human performance.

Naturally, we can only assume there will be some pretty nasty consequences!

And what we're really hoping is
