Director Malcolm Lee On Iron Fist And Power Man By George 'El Guapo' Roush on October 19, 2008 Still at the junket for Soul Men during the roundtable questioning, Malcolm Lee mentioned comic book movies. So I asked him what he would be interested in doing when he said Iron Fist and Power Man. Lee: You got a white karate dude and a big blaxplotation dude. I want it to be an action-comedy. Any idea on who you'd like to see play the roles? Lee: I don't know. What about Michael Jai White? He'd be good. He works out at my gym, he'd be a good Cage. [Ya, ya, ya. I know I'm always on Michael Jai White's dick, but I think he'd be a good fit.] Lee: I don't know. You gotta have somebody's who's funny. I'm gonna tell him you said he wasn't funny. Lee: (laughs) I didn't say he wasn't funny! I didn't say that! I also asked him if it was his intention to make it a comedy movie and he said he wanted it to be in the vein of Bad Boys. Not Bad Boys II, but Bad Boys as far as the comedy dynamic between the two. I like Malcolm Lee, so hopefully he can get this project off the ground! Source: Latinoreview Comments which gym? Commented By: !_! on 2008-10-19 17:41:05 which gym does he work out at? FUCK NO Commented By: daniel on 2008-10-20 00:23:10 I HOPE THIS SHIT NEVER GETS OFF THE GROUND. Comedy? Commented By: Allynd Dudnikov on 2008-10-20 00:54:37 Seriously? Why make this a comedy? Iron Fist and Luke Cage deserve their own movies. Dude, guapo tell him just for the fun of it.... on 2008-10-20 11:32:05 " Yo M-Jai, Malcolm Lee sez you is crazy wack unfunny." Then he'll get all Spawn on your ass and send some hellchains to chansaw-python your body apart. I'd buy that for a dollar. Awsome on 2008-10-20 16:16:48 I had the same idea. Except I would set it in the late 70s. Black People Rule Commented By: Derrick on 2008-10-20 19:32:12 M. Jai White is funny. Check him out in Why did I get married. He'd be great. bull shit Commented By: lethal mudax on 2008-10-21 15:39:50 Iron Fist and Luke Cage are one of the best tag team Super hero`s to date and you want to fuck it up in a comedy Please God No! Commented By: holden on 2008-10-21 19:22:18 Read Alias and The Pulse... that's all I'm sayin... Fuck, that don't want to see Luke Ca ge as a fucking Hancok-esque Clown. Commented By: Ganymede on 2008-10-22 00:26:15 Make it a serious fucking movie you dip shit; Why would you make one of the few Black Marvel Hero's a fucking comedic clown. We have enough Black people on TV doing Comedy. Make it a vengeful movie, of Luke Cage getting revenge from being experimented on in Prison. And have him be the hero for hire as he was in the comics. The storyline is already there asshole. All you have to do is shoot the damn story. We don't need you to piss on it and make it your own. Killing a good thing! Commented By: Greecosuave on 2009-05-14 02:33:58 For the people that read your comics when i was young you have got to stick with the story line. It needs to be blood soaked yet sleek throughout. You havea chance here to combine 2 great genres together. Dont kill it by making it a crappy recycled Bad boy Comedy.
