Wanna meet Scarlett Johansson? Uhh, yea neither do we, but it is for charity, soooo.

Ho-Jo is helping Oxfam America raise money by auctioning off two movie premiere tickets for Iron Man 2 and a chance to meet her. We know more than a few guys who would dig deep to ... er, ... help Oxfam. ...

Bidding begins on Ebay tonight at 10 p.m. ET

Iron Man 2's most epic battle may be happening behind the camera, not on the screen.

Things between the film's female stars, Gwyneth Paltrow and Scarlett Johansson, are getting even more tense as Gwyneth's jealousy of Scarlett is being amplified by the fact that Paltrow is apparently being left off of the movie's promotional tour in favor of the younger actress.

Johansson has supposedly been asked to join Robert Downey Jr. and Mickey Rourke in promoting the film next year, but Paltrow was snubbed.

There's some serious action going down on the set of Iron Man 2 that you're not likely to see in theaters.

Reportedly Gwyneth Paltrow, who reprises her role as Pepper Potts, is not happy about having to work with newcomer Scarlett Johansson, who plays Black Widow.

Terrence Howard is a whiny little bitch.

The Chris Brown supporting dingleberry is still venting about the fact that he was replaced in Iron Man 2 by Don Cheadle.

Dude, it was almost seven months ago. Move on!

We have many issues with the HoJo, but, for once, we’re gonna give her props.

Recently Internet reports claimed that Scarlett had dropped 14 pounds thanks to her Iron Man 2 co-star Gwyneth Paltrow, who loaned Johansson her personal trainer, Tracy Anderson.

Not so, says Scarlett.

We spoke with Robert Downey Jr. on Thursday about his new film The Soloist (more on that coming soon) and he told us that Iron Man 2 begins shooting today.

Good luck on your first day back to set, everyone.

Make it awesome!

Scarlett Johansson has signed on to Iron Man 2.

The HoJo will play Black Widow, an evil Soviet spy. In the comic, Black Widow tries to seduce Tony Stark and then has to battle Iron Man but later defects to America and joins S.H.I.E.L.D and The Avengers.

That means sequels for the HoJo.

Which makes sense since she's the luckiest bitch in the world.

Mickey Rourke has signed on for the upcoming Iron Man sequel.

He will play the Russian villain, Whiplash, a foil for Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man.

Iron Man 2 is expected in theaters in the summer of 2010.

We’re super excited of the movie, but the prospect of Rourke all shredded, in latex pants and an S & M mask, kinda gives us the willies.

He really is a bad ass mofo.

Samuel L. Jackson has inked a deal to play superspy Nick Fury in an unprecedented nine-movie deal with Marvel!

That is big time, big time.

Jackson made a cameo appearance at the end of 2008’s Iron Man and quickly confirmed his appearance in the movie’s upcoming sequel, but negotiations broke down when Marvel reportedly didn’t want to meet his quote.

We guess greed really is good; this deal will be putting his great-great-great-grandkids through college. Sam Jackson is PAID!

Robert Downey Jr. has signed a deal with Marvel Studios to reprise his role as Iron Man in The Avengers alongside other Marvel heroes Captain America, Thor and the Incredible Hulk.

Holla!

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
