Iron Man Destroys Box Office: Sequel, Avengers Movie Follow
Considering the weekend box office for Iron Man($98.6 million dollars) , it is no surprise that Marvel has announced a sequel to the mega hit. But Marvel isn't only relying on Iron Man and the Hulk to put money in their pockets. Adding to the sequels' scheduled 2010 release there will be a entire slate of other Marvel properties.
USA TODAY is reporting we can expect solo films from Thor, Captain America, and Ant-Man to join Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk on the big screen. In July 2011 all this solo action will lead to an Avengers film.
Anyone who sat through the credits of Iron Man can't be surprised by an Avengers project but I am curious as to the box office draw of solo Thor and Ant-Man projects.
And what about the budget for an Avengers project? With Downey, Jackson, and Norton sure to be on board they better hope they go the 'unknown' route to round out the team.

Every single new Marvel movie needs to now have a similar scene at the end of their credits, leading up to the Avengers movie.

Ant-Man is slated to have Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Spaced) at the helm. Potential for awesome is high.
