Jeff Bridges's Iron Man photos
Apparently Jeff Bridges is a shutterbug – a good one too, judging from this collection of photos he took on and off the set of Iron Man. I’ve heard acting is a lot of sitting around and waiting, so actors come up with ways to kill time. Video games, knitting… The Duderino takes photos.
Personally, I’ve given a lot of respect to Jon Favreau for knowing the material. I’ve even given Downey Jr. props for his refreshing attitude towards “comic book material.” What I didn’t know what that Jeff Bridges deserves a little as well, given this quote from the collection;
Another reason I wanted to do this movie was I’d get to shave my head. I always wanted to do that. Jon said I didn’t have to, but then Obadiah Stane, in the comic book, was bald, so…
The Dude abides, honestly.
That photo album was almost better than the movie. Almost. Iron Man was a pretty frakkin’ good movie.
I never need new reasons to love Jeff Bridges like a father, but it’s always good to have one. Great link.
although I’m a bit confused about the whole “let’s write the script the day of” thing. Hard to imagine that being the case, really…but who knows. Why would Jeff lie to me?!?!?!
