He portrayed "Howie" in David Lindsay-Abaire's Pulitzer Prize winning play, Rabbit Hole. He also appeared as a government promoter in the Clint Eastwood feature Flags of our Fathers and Henry Cravely, a CIA official, in Charlie Wilson's War.
In May 2009, Jon Favreau has confirmed that Slattery has joined the cast of Iron Man 2 as Howard Stark, Tony Stark's Dad. [2]
The actor often energetically portrays men significantly older than he is on account of his prematurely gray hair.
