Favreau not returning for 'Iron Man 2'?
Published Wednesday, Jun 11 2008, 19:51 BST | By Simon Reynolds

The director is said to be at odds with Marvel Studios over his salary for the upcoming sequel.
After guiding the superhero film to box office success, Favreau has allegedly requested a pay increase for 2010's Iron Man 2. However, Marvel has been unable to match Favreau's demands and believes that a franchise sequel will be a commercial success with or without the director of the first film.
Favreau earlier expressed his doubts about making another Iron Man film so soon after the first.
Marvel has scheduled the sequel for an April 30, 2010 release.
