Not only is your sixteen year old niece hanging out on MySpace, so is director Jon Favreau. Plus Bryan Singer bares his soul, Peter Parker keeps moving around town and the ol' Canucklehead will have to reunite with a certain furry friend.

IRON MAN

Director Jon Favreau has been quite the online personality, posting up a storm in his MySpace group (guess he got tired of the blog), where he answers vital questions, putting the origin in the present day, promising there will be a Jim Rhodes, saying he likes Adi Granov's armor design from the "Extremis" storyline and more, including possibly seeing something in time for Comic-Con.

SUPERMAN RETURNS

CBR message board regular "Supermanny" sent us this link to a very revelatory interview with director Bryan Singer, which is a better look into the mind of the man than into the mechanics of the movie. Meanwhile, MSN has a new clip from the film, if you have Windows Media installed.

SPIDER-MAN 3

Looky-loos unite! According to Superhero Hype, the production will be shooting along where Baltic and Smith streets intersect in Cobble Hill this Thursday (as in tomorrow).

WOLVERINE

Screenwriter Simon Kinberg talked to If Magazine in very vague terms about what characters we might see in the spin-off. "We did talk about a couple of characters that they wanted to save for the WOLVERINE movie spin-off," Kinberg said. "I can't tell you who they are, but there was really only one we wanted to use for 'X3,' and they said they're not going to have a big enough part to risk losing them for 'WOLVERINE.' Sabretooth will be in there, but I don't know in what form. I think his relationship with Wolverine is under explored."

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION

Here's where you get in on the action. Did you see a link we didn't catch? Have you snuck into a closed movie set, and have inside data? Maybe your cousin is dating somebody who knows something, and they had to tell you? Whatever it is, we wanna know it all -- fire off an email and let us know whether you want your name used or your contributions to geekdom to go down anonymously. Broadcasting live from Los Angeles, this is novelist/karaoke host/all-around lunatic Hannibal Tabu saying thanks for your time and indulgence, and [tagline sent back to development hell until something hipper can be dreamed up].
