This Just In…

From this morning's New York Daily News…

We asked director Jon Favreau if Robert Downey Jr. owes him any favors for casting him in the "Iron Man" superhero franchise. "Oh, he helped me out a lot too," he told us at Cipriani 42nd Street. "I think it was mutually beneficial and I got a really good friend out of it." Favreau also said he'd love to see the comic book Groo the Wanderer brought to the big screen. "It was a spoof on Conan the Barbarian," he said. "I liked that one."

Yeah, that might be nice. And Groo fans should watch this space for an announcement about the Cheese-Dip Eater returning to the comic book racks in a big way.
