Scooper 'Advanced Dark' asked Iron Man director Jon Favreau a question on his Blog and got an interesting response:

We've got two(2!) sets of writers typing away on scenes and outlines. We've got a room full of storyboard illustrators and concept artists. The story has been fully broken. The villian has been selected and the train has left the station. I expect a rough first draft in the next several weeks, though the sequences are being hammered out visually as we speak. I wont reveal any further details on the plot or villians at this time. Marvel likes to trickle this type of info out slowly, as you can understand, and we are a full two years away from release. I did, however, convince them to share some interesting stuff some time in, oh, I don't know, July?

Wonder which Villian they picked.

If it's not Mandarin, it's not Iron Man.

John Favreau...what has he done in the past? Wasn't he Foggy Nelson in Daredevil? He was good in that. I hope he's a good director.
