Plot

Template:Spoiler

"Past and present collide in this epic adventure that reveals the origin of Iron Man. While raising the ruins of a long buried Chinese kingdom, billionaire inventor Tony Stark digs up far more than he bargained for. He unleashes an age-old prophecy that foretells the resurrection of the Mandarin, the emperor of China's darkest and most violent dynasty. In order to confront the destructive force, Tony creates an armored suit infused with high-tech weaponry. To stop the evil that he himself has raised from the Earth, Tony must become his greatest invention ever -- Iron Man! The newly born champion must travel to the four corners of the earth to battle the Mandarin's henchmen, the Elementals -- four magical warriors who harness the power of the elements -- earth, water, wind and fire -- with deadly chemistry. But is the Iron Knight, as he is known in the prophecy, strong enough to defy fate and turn back the malevolent forces hell-bent on earth's destruction?"

Additional voices

Trivia

  • Marc Worden is the same voice actor that provided Iron Man's voice in the two Ultimate Avengers animated movies.
  • Amongst the armors in Tony's hideout are suits that resemble War Machine and the Ultimate Iron Man suit.
  • In the movie, the term "Iron Man" is never used to refer to Tony's alter ego.
  • The Mandarin is not a modern-day character in this film, but rather an ancient warlord in China whose spirit only manifests while all five rings are worn by his only living descendant. Removing those rings causes him to weaken, and he vanishes completely when all five have been taken off.
  • All of The Mandarin's minions are revamps of previously exsisting characters (such as Fin Fang Foom).
  • The army of soldier statues are reminicent to the real life Terracotta Army, in which an army of clay soldiers were constructed to protect the hidden tomb of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Huang.
