Recently I was lucky enough to get to see some footage from Iron Man 3, and of course I can’t talk about it, except its everything you’d expect and then some. Robert Downey Jr. on the other hand has been talking to EW and gave some snippets of what we can expect come May.
Will any of the other Avengers show up in the movie.. “The whole Avengers thing with $1.5 billion in global box office was such a relief and such a confirmation of [Marvel Studios President] Kevin Feige’s vision for this all along. As Kevin has put it, the next step after that is to bring in someone like Shane Black and – without pretending that the Avengers don’t exist – find a way to go back to a kind of re-investigation of Tony’s world, which he thought would be, one, fun for the audience and, two, would rock in a different way than The Avengers. But we can’t help it — everywhere you look now in every Marvel movie there are opportunities where certain new pals of his could be useful. So they’re in the atmosphere, so to speak, but I wouldn’t expect to see them on the ground in this one.”
On whether the arrival of director Shane Black has changed the approach to action scenes We’ve just been talking about one sequence – the top-secret name is the Boot/Glove Sequence, I can tell you that, just between you and me – it’s where Tony only has one gauntlet and one boot and he has to escape multiple captors. It’s really fun, dude. We’re taking everything from his first gauntlet test in the first movie up through the most extreme stuff we thought up for Iron Man 2 and The Avengers and pulling on all of it and making this one big, extended challenge of physics.
So any ideas which Avenger will be in the “atmosphere” Either way, Iron Man 3 is at the very top of my must see list this year (along with a shit load of other movies) and while we all know how good Downey Jr. is as Stark, I genuinely can’t wait to see what Shane Black brings to the big screen!
