Last time we saw Tony Stark he was leading the Avengers in a battle against Loki in THE AVENGERS ASSEMBLE. Robert Downey Jr in turn lead the movie to being the third highest grossing movie of all times, and crushed the 1 billion dollar mark within a short period of time. Two days ago we were graced with two new TV spots and posters showing off the new suits which surely left the jaws of all Iron Man fans dropped. However, today THN was lucky to be shown some crazy exclusive footage from the film. Despite our great excitement and desire to spill the beans we’re keeping this article spoiler free.
In the last two IRON MAN films Stark had to fight against various versions of Iron Man wannabes, in the third installment his true nemesis is introduced in the form of Mandarin, played by Sir Ben Kingsley. The menace which surrounds the new villain Mandarin brings not only fear to the audience and civilians in the movie but it even brings the mighty Iron Man to tremble. Mandarin poses a threat to those closest to Iron Man is merciless in his attacks on the super hero. We see Tony Stark having to go back to his roots after being stripped off from everything and returns to robot building 101. Despite the downfall of Iron Man and the constant threat which faces him, we see good old Tony Stark remaining a playboy, philanthropist and scientist all while cracking jokes in his charming yet desensitized manner.
The good old cast consisting of Don Cheadle, Jon Favreau, Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr are returning to the third action packed film but are this time being joined by some serious talent. Rebecca Hall, Guy Pierce and Sir Ben Kingsley join the already star studded cast in their attempts to apologise and distract the audience from the mess that was Iron Man 2.
