According to the Hollywood Reporter, Robert Downey Jr. has signed on to star in Jon Favreau's adaptation of the comic IRON MAN.

Downey will portray Tony Stark, a billionaire industrialist and genius inventor who is kidnapped and forced to build a devastating weapon.

That actually makes a good amount of sense, given that Iron Man's superhero weakness is alcoholism and Downey's is/was drug use.

Why do superhero movies always have to involve some big sprawling plot to devastate the world somehow.

For once i'd like to see a superhero movie where the hero(s) foil a dastardly plot by the evil villain(s), who were trying to steal candy from a baby. Or something equivilent.

RDJ is one heck of an actor. Slap a moustache on him and he's good to go!
