Sylvester Stallone is getting back to his dramatic roots in his follow up to the action fest Driven. He is set to play Brad Renfro's father in Iron Man.

Iron follows an unbeaten high school wrestler who is pushed to perform at such high levels by his abusive, alcoholic father. And to think, Hollywood is trying to cut down on the movies featuring violence in schools.
