Favreau: 'AC/DC inspired Iron Man 2 scene'
Published Tuesday, Apr 20 2010, 18:49 BST | By Mike Moody
Speaking to the Los Angeles Times, Favreau said that he was inspired while watching the group perform a live concert.
"When I was watching AC/DC with my wife and my son and they were playing 'Shoot To Thrill' at the Forum, I thought, 'You know this is how he (Tony Stark/Iron Man) should show up, right in the middle of this and take the armour off'," he explained.
"That's the Tony Stark version of doing things."
The scene is featured in a clip from Iron Man 2 released last week.
A special AC/DC album in support of the Marvel Studios movie was made available this week. The band also make a cameo appearance in the film.
Iron Man 2 arrives in US cinemas on May 7.
