Director Shane Black has said that Iron Man 3 will be darker than the previous installments. We're not talking The Dark Knight here, it will still retain the fun that made the character so popular amongst cinema goers, but there will be a harder edge to it. That is evident from this first clip from the upcoming sequel. It's a scene we've seen in the trailers, but it puts it into a lot more perspective, and it also shows Robert Downey jr. at his bad ass best.
