Indeed! From TvGuideMarvel: Iron Man 2 on the Way Instant sequel! Just add water, and a lot of fannies in the seats. On the heels of Iron Man pulling in more than $200 million worldwide since its release last week, Marvel Studios announced there will be an Iron Man 2. The sequel's release is scheduled for April 10, 2010. Marvel plans some superhero cross-pollenation on the big screen. Robert Downey, Jr's. Iron Man character, Tony Stark, will make an appearance in The Incredible Hulk, due out in June. Studio chief David Maisel says it's likely the Hulk will make an appearance in Iron Man 2. The studio has several other films in the offing based on Marvel superheroes, including Thor (June 2010), The First Avenger: Captain America, (May 2011) and The Avengers (July 2011). And according to IMDB, a first draft of Iron Man had Stark Industries indirectly involved in the creation of Dr.Octopus' arms from Spider-Man 2. I wish they hadn't removed it, I love in-continuity references.

I had suspected something like this. It explains that "the first Avenger" tag in the title and could tie well with the Avengers movie, showing when they find him lost in ice.

www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=0&id=54651 12:00 AM, 22-MAY-08 Captain America, Thor Details Leaked
Kevin Feige, president of Marvel Studios, confirmed that the upcoming The First Avenger: Captain America will be a World War II period piece, like the comic book on which it is based, and he shot down a rumor that Matthew McConaughey was in line to play the hero.
Feige, speaking to online journalists at Universal Studios on May 21, added that Captain America would help set up the eventual Avengers movie, which follows six weeks later. (Feige also confirmed what many fans have speculated: that the star-shaped object in Tony Stark's workshop in Iron Man is indeed part of Cap's famous shield.)
Feige also talked about the upcoming Thor movie, confirming that it will take place mostly in Asgard, the mythical Norse realm of the gods, and not in the contemporary real world. "The film is not all Asgard, but it will be a big chunk in Asgard, yeah," Feige said.
Feige promised an announcement about a director for Thor "later this summer." Mark Protosevich (The Cell) is drafting a script, which should be submitted in a couple of weeks, he added.
Feige also confirmed release dates for Marvel's future slate of superhero movies: Iron Man 2 on April 30, 2010; Thor on June 4, 2010; The First Avenger: Captain America on May 6, 2011; and The Avengers on July 1, 2011.
As for a second Iron Man movie, Feige said that talks are underway with director Jon Favreau to return and that he hopes to wrap them up soon.
Feige spoke at a preview of footage from Louis Leterrier's The Incredible Hulk, which opens June 13; look for a report about the preview next week on SCI FI Wire. --Patrick Lee, News Editor
