FAVREAU CONFRONTS FEAR OF FLYING
IRON MAN director JON FAVREAU was forced to confront his fear of flying in order to promote the new superhero movie.
The actor was so terrified of taking to the skies, he hadn’t stepped on a plane for two years - but was called upon to travel the globe with the stars of the comic book hit.
Favreau says, "I’m not a good flyer. I hadn’t flown in two years and we had to fly around the world." He even took aviation advice from Dustin Hoffman’s character in the film Rain Man.
Favreau explains, "We went to Australia. And I flew with Qantas. If you remember Rain Man - he liked Qantas, because it never crashed - so I was very comfortable."
