Jessica Chastain (The Help) is in negotiations to join Iron Man 3 (the Marvel Studios production), which will start shooting in five weeks in North Carolina withShane Black in the director’s seat, THR has confirmed.

Chastain is not a female lead but will play a supporting role. The female lead belongs to Gwyneth Paltrow, who plays Tony Stark/Iron Man’s long-suffering girlfriend Pepper Potts. Insiders say that Potts will be a beefed-up presence in the new movie.

Guy Pearce and Ben Kingsley are the previously-reported newcomers to the franchise. They are in various stages of negotiations to join mainstays Robert Downey Jr. and Paltrow, plus Don Cheadle.

Chastain next voices a role in Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted, which opens June 8.

She'll play Maya Hansen, creator of the extremis virus. I love her so I'm very glad to hear this. And Maya is an interesting enough character

They are really putting together a nice cast listing for IM3.  I wonder if they'll go the whole Mandarin steals the Extremis virus to release on the general population route?

Just watched the Iron Man: Extremis motion comic on Netflix - not bad. Wonder how much of that story line will make it in the movie?

The Help was a really good movie. She did an awesome job. The budget for this movie must be off the charts for the talent they are pulling.

Does Don Cheadle being in the film mean that War Machine will also show up? Or is his suit just going to get mentioned in passing?

If Mandarin is in the movie, then War Machine will certainly be needed! I'm curious to see if there will be any mention of The Avengers, SHIELD, or perhaps an intro to a certain Dr. and his wife. Hmmmm...

War Machine was in IM 2 so why wouldn't he be in IM 3?
