Exclusive: Shepard Fairey Art in Iron Man 2



We just got an exclusive version of the artistic rendition of Iron Man, as seen in Iron Man 2.

It is stylized after Shepard Fairey's iconic Obama HOPE poster. Fairey did not design the Iron Man image in the movie, nor was he paid for it. He did, however, give his verbal approval of the piece appearing in the film, and said "All of the Obama HOPE spoofs, positive or negative, are a reminder of the power and importance of grassroots activism to affect things."

Iron Man 2 came out in theaters last Friday, and was the box office leader this week, receiving generally favorable reviews.
