The footage of Iron man 2 from the comic con has finally leaked online:
You may have here below a first look at Mickey Rourke as Iron Man's new nemesis, Ivan Vanko aka Whiplash:

Whiplash makes his first appearance at the Monaco Historic Grand Prix.
Whiplash won't be the only enemy in the movie Iron Man 2: Tony Stark will also compete with Stark Industries' rival Justin Hammer (played by Sam Rockwell). Besides he will have to cope with his new superhero status...The first official movie poster of Iron Man 2, actually a banner poster, has been unveiled, it features Iron Man (played by Robert Downey Jr.) and his glowing armored hand:

It's official now: the production of the movie Iron Man 2 has been kick started. Indeed, movie sets are being built for the movie sequel to Iron Man. Thanks to Director Jon Favreau (a real geek with a tweeter account here) We have a first picture from Tony Stark's house:

I suppose they're rebuilding the set of this fake house, probably because the first movie set was destroyed. On the picture cinematographer Matthew Libatique is standing next to Jon Favreau.
The much anticipated sequel is scheduled to hit theaters on May 7, 2010. Well Iron man 2 can’t come out soon enough! Bring it on Jon Favreau!

Emboldened by the recent success of the first Iron Man directed by Jon Favreau and starring Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man, Marvel has given its green light to a second Iron Man movie (there are even talks about making a third movie).
Iron Man should reprise most of the initial cast, Robert Downey Jr., Terrence Howard (update: replaced by Don Cheadle) and Gwyneth Paltrow, under the direction of Jon Favreau. The Iron Man sequel is slated for an release at the end of April 2010.
No official synopsis has been unveiled yet. But some tracks are likely for Iron Man 2:
- a first job with Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) in a struggle against some evil mastermind, before getting more involved in the Avengers initiative in an other movie: indeed, if you waited for the end credits of Iron Man you may have seen Nick Fury making an offer to Iron Man.
- the Mandarin: he is Iron Man's nemesis and the leader of Ten Rings, the secret organization we've already had a glimpse of in the first Iron Movie (The Afghan terrorist was indeed wearing the ring of the evil group).
- Demon in a bottle: in the comic book Tony Stark vainly strives to cope with his guiltness of selling weapons in the past and is depressed after loosing Pepper Potts who fell in love with an other man. So Iron Man 2 could dwell on this darker side of Marvel's superhero.But it may not be attractive enough for the marketing team... Besides Jon Favreau would have asserted that such a theme has already be done in Hancock.
- War Machine: In Iron Man 2, Don Cheadle (who is replacing Terrence Howard because the guy was to greedy for Marvel), in the role of Jim Rhodes Tony Stark's friend and pilot, may get a wider role as War Machine, giving a hand to a temporarily weakened Iron Man.
Mostly speculations for now but details about the plot of Iron Man 2 should leak out in a not too distant future. But maybe you have a suggestion to Marvel and Jon Favreau about Iron Man 2?
