Gwyneth Paltrow ‘furious’ with promo pics of ‘Iron Man 2′
July 20th, 2009 - 5:51 pm ICT by ANILondon, July 20 (ANI): Actress Gwyneth Paltrow is reportedly fuming after seeing the promo pics of her new film Iron Man 2 which mainly features her co-star Scarlett Johansson.
The beauty, who plays superhero’s PA Pepper Potts in the sequel, is apparently miffed with the bosses because they are letting Johansson steal her limelight.
In fact, the ‘Shakespeare in Love’ star was found missing as Robert Downey Jr, Mickey Rourke and Johansson pose for publicity shots.
“Gwyneth was afraid she’d be upstaged by Scarlett and not being in the campaign was the final straw. She is furious she’s been left out,” the Sun quoted a source as telling a newspaper.
However, Paltrow’s representative has dismissed the reports.
He said: “She was not at all upset. The fans will get to see more of Pepper Potts as we get closer to the film’s release next May.”
But this is not the first occasion when friction between Gwyneth and Scarlett has emerged.
Even while shooting for the film, it was reported that Paltrow had grown tired of Johansson’s demands on set. (ANI)
