Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr Team Up For Cowboys and Aliens

by POPSUGAR Entertainment 4

Last Summer, Robert Downey Jr. signed on to a film adaption of the graphic novel Cowboys and Aliens, and here's more good news — Jon Favreau most likely will direct the film! If you've seen Iron Man (or have even heard of it), you know what kind of magic these guys have together.

I've been antsy for Iron Man 2 after seeing new footage at Comic-Con, but I might be even more interested in RDJ and Favreau's newest venture. The duo is staying within the comic book realm, but I'm looking forward to new characters, fresh story lines, and 100 percent more aliens.
