How close was Schwimmer to getting cast as Tony?


Was anyone else really on the shortlist? I heard some loose interest about Cruise too. Don't get me wrong, RDJ is the man!

DAVID Schwimmer? Good God, that would have been a terrible idea. This film wouldn't have been the same and would have been significantly worse without Robert Downey Jr.

LMFAO.

Ross: Hi guys...so I've been working on a suit that with flight abilities, weaponry and armor to be able to withstand bullets. Like a superhero. Maybe Rachel will love me now.

Joey: No man, no suits. Trust me, I already tried it. I was dating this really hot chick from Slovenia and one time she saw me dressed as Wonder Woman, she stopped talking to me. I don't know, maybe it was the hair".

Chandler: Yeah, Joey, it was the hair.

Ross: But guys, it's gonna work. I still need to mess around more with it, I'll have to put JARVIS up to date.

Chandler: And JARVIS is...?

Joey: Oh yeah, Ross got a dog, he didn't want me to tell you.

Ross: Joey...when did I ever mention anything about getting a dog?

Joey: Oh, WHY did I stay up watching Air Bud?

Ross: JARVIS is an AI that I programmed. He talks and listens and we spent all day yesterday talking about what it would be like to find the right woman.

Chandler: You don't get out much do you?

Joey: Listen Ross, it shouldn't be too hard. Just put on the suit, go on a little flight trip with her and you're good.

Ross: Well I haven;t exactly programmed flying into it yet.

Joey: What??? No flying? You're not a superhero, you're just a...robot sex maker.

I heard it was suppose to be Cruise, but when it came time to do it, he wasn't available. Good thing!
