Iron Man 3 Trailer AKA Pepper's So Cool!
Mar. 27th, 2013 06:10 pmGosh, Pepper is so, so cool in this! And I just love that RDJ actually championed for her to be a part of the action this time, not just a damsel in distress:
It was Downey Jr. who insisted on having Pepper in The Avengers. "I was like, 'You can't just pretend that I got in a fight with Rhodey and Pepper's out of town.’ They said, ‘You can't have both of them,’ so I said, ‘All right, I need Pepper.’”
So this time, Downey Jr. wanted to make sure Pepper had something to do: "How do we have it so she's not going [whining], 'Tony!' and I'm going [growling], 'Where's Pepper?' (...) That's the other thing that I have been pushing for," said Downey Jr. "She's in great shape, she's really game. There's all these genre movies and you have these capable women and they're like, 'Oh my god, some action is happening, I better step away or get caught in something over here.' It's like, 'Really, is that where we're at in the 21st century?'"
