Iron Man 3 is an upcoming American superhero film featuring the Marvel Comics character Iron Man, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures.1 It will be the sequel to Iron Man and Iron Man 2, and the seventh installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, being the first major release in the franchise since the crossover film The Avengers. Shane Black directed a screenplay he co-wrote with Drew Pearce, which will be based on the "Extremis" story arc by Warren Ellis. Jon Favreau, who directed the first two films, serves as executive producer, along with Kevin Feige.[5] Robert Downey, Jr. reprises his role as the title character, with Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, and Favreau reprising their roles as Pepper Potts, James Rhodes, and Happy Hogan, respectively. Guy Pearce, Rebecca Hall, Stephanie Szostak, James Badge Dale, and Ben Kingsley round out the film's principal cast.
After the release of Iron Man 2 in May 2010, Favreau decided not to return as director, and in February 2011 Black was hired to rewrite and direct the film. Throughout April and May of 2012, the film's supporting cast was filled out, with Kingsley, Pearce, and Hall brought in to portray key roles. Filming began on May 23, 2012 in Wilmington, North Carolina. The film was shot primarily in North Carolina, with additional shooting in Florida, China and Los Angeles. The film's visual effects will be handled by a number of companies, including Scanline VFX, Digital Domain, and Weta Digital.
Iron Man 3 will be converted to 3D in post-production,[6] and it is scheduled to be released internationally on April 25, 2013 in IMAX[7] and May 3, 2013 in the United States.
Plot synopsis
Set after the events that occurred in The Avengers, Tony Stark faces a powerful enemy, the Mandarin. Left only to rely on his instincts, he must embark on a harrowing quest to find those responsible for destroying his personal life. Along the way, he discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: "Does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?"[8]
Cast
- A self-described genius, billionaire, playboy, and philanthropist who escaped captivity with a suit of armor he created and now struggles to keep his technology in the right hands.[2] On making a third Iron Man film, Downey said, "My sense of it is that we need to leave it all on the field — whatever that means in the end. You can pick several different points of departure for that."[9] On following up The Avengers, Downey said they "tried to be practical, in a post-Avengers world. What are his challenges now? What are some limitations that might be placed on him? And what sort of threat would have him, as usual, ignore those limitations?"[10]
- Stark's girlfriend, longtime associate, and CEO of Stark Industries.[11][2] Paltrow says of her character's relationship to Tony, “[She still] adores Tony, but she absolutely gets fed up with him. He gets caught in a feedback loop.”[12] Kevin Feige comments on Pepper's role in the film: "The love triangle in this movie is really between Tony, Pepper and the suits. Tony, Pepper and his obsession with those suits, and the obsession with technology." Feige also states that the film plans to play with the damsel in distress trope with the character and posits the question, "Is Pepper in danger or is Pepper the savior?"[13] Paltrow has confirmed that Pepper will wear the Iron Man armor in the film.[14]
- Stark's best friend, the liaison between Stark Industries and the U.S. Air Force in the department of acquisitions and the operator of the War Machine armor.[2] Rhodes' armor is redesigned/upgraded and will take on an American flag-inspired color scheme in the film, similar to the Iron Patriot armor from the comics.[16] Kevin Feige said of Rhodes and the armor, "The notion in the movie is that a red, white and blue suit is a bold statement, and it’s meant to be. With Rhodey, he’s very much the foil to Tony’s eccentricities, and in this one you get to see this and be reminded of the trust and friendship between them in that great Shane Black buddy-cop fashion."[17] Feige also revealed that in the film, the president will ask Rhodey to take up the moniker "Iron Patriot", and don the red, white and blue suit, in order to be the government's "American hero" in response to the events in The Avengers.[15]
- The creator of the Extremis virus[18] and the founder of Advanced Idea Mechanics.[19] On why he took the role, Pearce said, "I feel a little more experimental in what I'll take on these days, but I still don't know that I would want to play the superhero myself, since I'm playing a different kind of character in this film... The main difference was that, when I did The Time Machine, I was pretty much in all of it, so it was a really grueling experience. Prometheus and Iron Man are really kind of cameo stuff, so the experience of shooting them... I mean, on some level, it's tricky because you feel like a bit of an outsider. You don’t really live the experience that you do when you're there all day every day with everybody. But at the same time, it can be more fun sometimes because you're just working in concentrated spurts."[20] Pearce described his character as a man "who came into this world with a number of physical disabilities. He’s never been able to accept those limitations though and has spent most of his life trying to overcome them in any way he can. His tenacity and blind determination in fighting for a better life are seen by some as irritating, as he often comes across as obnoxious. He just won’t accept the cards he was dealt, and being as intelligent as he is, has real drive to change and become a different person."[19]
- Rebecca Hall as Dr. Maya Hansen:
- One of the Extremis creators.[21][22] Hall confirmed that Hansen would be a "strong female character," and described her decision to take the role, saying, "I decided to do Iron Man 3 because I've never done the 'hurry up and wait' movie before. Even the studio movies I've done have been small studio movies, or indie films that we made on a wing and a prayer. I love those, but Iron Man is refreshing in a way because it's something out of my realm of experiences."[23]
- An employee of Aldrich Killian.[11] Dale stated that his character in the film was "loosely based on" the comic version of the character.[25][26] According to Dale, "Ben Kingsley is the mouthpiece. Guy Pearce is the brain. I’m the muscle.”[27]
- Tony Stark's bodyguard and chauffeur.[28] Favreau, who served as both actor and director on the previous two Iron Man films, described his participation on the new film saying he was "like a proud grandfather who doesn't have to change the diapers but gets to play with the baby."[29]
- Ben Kingsley as the Mandarin:
- The leader of an international terrorist organization.[30][31] Kingsley was filming Ender's Game when he was cast, and said that, "Quite soon I'll be with everybody and we'll be discussing the look and the feel and the direction of the character. It's very early days yet, but I'm so thrilled to be on board."[32] The Mandarin was initially set to appear in the first Iron Man film, but he was put off for a sequel as the filmmakers felt that he was "too ambitious for a first [film]".[33] Of the character, Kevin Feige stated, "The Mandarin is [Iron Man's] most famous foe in the comics mainly because he’s been around the longest. If you look, there’s not necessarily a definitive Mandarin storyline in the comics. So it was really about having an idea."[17] Shane Black explains that the Mandarin is not Chinese in the film as he is in the comics in order to avoid the Fu Manchu stereotype: “We’re not saying he’s Chinese, we’re saying he, in fact, draws a cloak around him of Chinese symbols and dragons because it represents his obsessions with Sun Tzu in various ancient arts of warfare that he studied.” The filmmakers also cited Colonel Kurtz from Apocalypse Now as an influence for the character.[34]
Paul Bettany reprises his role from previous films as JARVIS, Stark's AI system.[24] Ashley Hamilton will portray Jack Taggert / Firepower,[35] and Wang Xueqi will play Dr. Wu.[36] Initial reports had Wang playing Chen Lu, who was Radioactive Man in the comics.[37] William Sadler will play President Ellis,[38][24] and child actor Ty Simpkins plays Harley.[24] Stan Lee will make a cameo appearance[39] and Fan Bingbing[40] and Wu Jing[41] were cast in unspecified roles.
Production
Development
"Truthfully, the way to go about doing a part 3, if you’re ever in that position, as I’m lucky enough to be, is to find a way that the first two weren’t done yet. You have to find a way to make sure that the story that’s emerging is still ongoing and, by the time you’ve finished 3, will be something resembling the culmination of a trilogy. It’s about, 'How has the story not yet been completely told?,' and I think we’re getting there. I think we’ve really found ways to make this feel organic and new, based on what’s come before, and that’s what I’m happy about."
Following the release of Iron Man 2, a conflict between Paramount Pictures, which had distribution rights to certain Marvel properties, and The Walt Disney Company, Marvel Entertainment's new corporate parent, clouded the timing and the distribution arrangement of a possible third film.[42] On October 18, 2010, Walt Disney Studios agreed to pay Paramount at least $115 million for the worldwide distribution rights to Iron Man 3 and The Avengers.[43] Disney, Marvel, and Paramount announced a May 3, 2013 release date for Iron Man 3.[44]
Iron Man and Iron Man 2 director Jon Favreau said in December 2010 that he would not direct Iron Man 3, opting to direct Magic Kingdom instead. He remained an executive producer of director Joss Whedon's crossover film The Avengers and will also serve as an executive producer of Iron Man 3.[5][45] In February 2011 Shane Black entered final negotiations to direct[46] and write the screenplay,[47] and in March Drew Pearce was hired to co-write the screenplay.[48] Black described his take on the film as not being "two men in iron suits fighting each other", and more like a "Tom Clancy thriller", with Iron Man fighting real world type villains.[47] Downey, who had previously starred in Black's film Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, said, "Bringing in Shane Black to write and direct Iron Man 3 to me is basically the only transition from Favreau to a 'next thing' that Favreau and the audience and Marvel and I could ever actually sign off on."[9]
Pre-production
In September 2011, Marvel Studios reached an agreement to shoot the film primarily out of EUE/Screen Gems Studios in Wilmington, North Carolina. Michigan was also in contention to land the production, but the Michigan Film Office could not match North Carolina's tax incentives.[49] In April 2012, Ben Kingsley entered into negotiations to play a villain in Iron Man 3.[30] The film's fake working title was revealed to be Caged Heat, and Marvel Studios worked with the Tona B. Dahlquist Casting company to hire extras in the North Carolina area.[50] The following week, producer Kevin Feige revealed that Iron Man 3 would begin shooting in North Carolina "in five weeks", and said that it "is a full-on Tony Stark-centric movie ... very much inspired by the first half of Iron Man ... [H]e’s stripped of everything, he’s backed up against a wall, and he’s gotta use his intelligence to get out of it. He can’t call Thor, he can’t call Cap, he can’t call Nick Fury, and he can’t look for the Helicarrier in the sky."[51] A few days later, The Walt Disney Company China, Marvel Studios and DMG Entertainment announced an agreement to co-produce Iron Man 3 in China. DMG will partly finance, produce in China with Marvel, and handle co-production matters. DMG will also distribute the film in China in tandem with Disney.[52]
The next week, Guy Pearce entered into final talks to play Aldrich Killian, a character who is featured in the "Extremis" comic book story arc.[18] Chinese star Andy Lau became involved in negotiations to join the film, as a Chinese scientist and old friend of Tony Stark's who comes to his aid.[53] Jessica Chastain entered into discussions for a role in the film[54] but bowed out due to scheduling conflicts.[21] In May, Rebecca Hall was cast in her place,[21] and her role was described as "a scientist who plays a pivotal role in the creation of a nanotechnology, known as Extremis".[22] Over the next few weeks, James Badge Dale was cast as the villain Eric Savin,[25] Ashley Hamilton was cast as the armored villain Firepower,[35] and Jon Favreau was set to reprise his role as Happy Hogan from the first two films.[28] William Sadler was also cast in the film, as the President of the United States.[38] Despite erroneous early reports that Cobie Smulders would reprise her role as Maria Hill from The Avengers in the film,[55] Smulders wrote on her verified Twitter page that this was not so.[56] Scarlett Johansson also dismissed rumors she would reprise her role as Black Widow in the film.[57]
Filming
Filming began in Wilmington, North Carolina on May 23, 2012 at EUE/Screen Gems Studios. From June 4 through June 6, filming took place in Cary, North Carolina at the Epic Games headquarters,[58] with a large Christmas tree set up on the front lawn.[59] A scene was also shot at the Wilmington International Airport.[60] On set photos in North Carolina featured an actor wearing armor similar to the "Iron Patriot" suit from the comics.[61] It was later reported to be the War Machine armor painted in red, white and blue.[16] Another picture appeared online showing a building with a sign saying AIM, Advanced Idea Mechanics.[62] In late June it was reported that the large water tank in the EUE/Screen Gems Studios was being used to film a scene in which Stark's Malibu mansion would be destroyed and fall into the ocean.[63] It was also reported that Andy Lau had turned down the role he was negotiating to play, due to the birth of his first child on May 9. With Lau out, other actors in consideration for the role included Chen Daoming and Wu Xiubo. Chinese actresses reportedly contacted for separate roles included Yao Chen and Fan Bingbing.[64]
From July 19 to August 1 filming took place on Oak Island, North Carolina, to "film aerial drops over the Atlantic Ocean".[65] In late July, it was reported that Stephanie Szostak had been cast in the film.[66] Filming took place in Rose Hill, North Carolina in early August 2012.[67] On August 14, actress Dale Dickey said she had been cast in the film, and was currently shooting her scenes.[68] On August 15, production was halted when Robert Downey, Jr. suffered an ankle injury.[69] Shooting had resumed by August 24.[70] In early September, it was reported that Wang Xueqi had been cast for a role for which Lau had initially been cast.[37]
Cast and crew began arriving in Florida on October 1, to shoot scenes on Dania Beach and around South Florida.[71] That same day, Robert Downey Jr. returned to the set after his ankle injury.[72] In early October, scenes were shot at a replica of the Malibu restaurant Neptune's Net,[73] and filming took place on location at the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens.[74] Scenes were shot during the daytime inside the Miami Beach Resort at Miami Beach on October 10 and 11.[75] The production returned to Wilmington in mid-October for additional filming.[76] On November 1, scenes were shot at the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens[77] and at an abandoned cement factory made up as an Afghanistan village market.[78] Filming in the United States wrapped on November 7 in Wilmington.[79]
Filming began in Beijing, China on December 10. Filming was scheduled to wrap a week later on December 17, 2012.[36] The China filming did not include the main cast and crew.[79] In January 2013, it was reported that a film crew led by Shane Black would begin location scouting in Hyderabad, India and Bengaluru, India between January 20 and 24.[80] Also in January, Don Cheadle confirmed that reshooting was taking place in Manhattan Beach.[81] Shooting also took place on the week of January 23, 2013 at TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.[82]
Post-production
Unlike the first two Iron Man films, Industrial Light and Magic is not involved with the film's visual effects. Instead, Scanline VFX, Digital Domain, Weta Digital, The Third Floor, and Trixter Film will work on the visual effects for Iron Man 3.[83]
Music
In October 2012, Brian Tyler signed on to score the film.[84] The score is being recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios utilizing the recent Dolby Atmos recording technology.[citation needed] Tyler is the third primary composer to score an Iron Man film, following Ramin Djawadi of Iron Man and John Debney of Iron Man 2.
Disney Music Group announced in March 2013 that the concept album Heroes Fall and the film's original soundtrack would be released on April 30, 2013 by Hollywood Records and Marvel Music.[85]
Release
Iron Man 3 will be distributed worldwide by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures1 with the exception of China, where it will be released by DMG Entertainment, and Germany and Austria, where it will be released by Tele München Group.[52] The Chinese version of the film will offer specially prepared bonus footage made exclusively for the Chinese audience.[86]
Marketing
In July 2012, at the San Diego Comic-Con International, a new Iron Man armor from the movie was on display on the convention floor, along with the seven armors from the first two Iron Man movies and The Avengers.[87] A panel was held, during which Shane Black, Robert Downey, Jr., Don Cheadle, Jon Favreau and Kevin Feige discussed making the film, and several minutes of footage from the movie were shown.[29] The first television advertisement aired during Super Bowl XLVII on the CBS network in the United States.[88] On March 25, 2013, Marvel and Disney revealed on the official Iron Man Facebook page, "Iron Man 3: Armor Unlock", to reveal suits Stark has made before the events of the film.[89]
Disney also promoted the film at its domestic theme parks. Disneyland's Innoventions attraction will receive a Stark Industries exhibit beginning April 13, and Monorail Black of the Walt Disney World Monorail System was given an exterior Iron Man scheme.[90][91]
Tie-in comic
In early 2013, Marvel released a two-issue prelude comic, showing the whereabouts of Rhodes during The Avengers. In the first issue, Stark is shown upgrading the War Machine armor, removing all of the added components from Justin Hammer seen in Iron Man 2 and giving Rhodey a more personalized Mark II War Machine armor. War Machine is then shown traveling the world, looking into different Ten Rings cell operations, eventually going to Hong Kong at the same time as the New York attack in The Avengers. War Machine engages in a battle with a stolen Hammer tank and is knocked unconscious.[92] Once his system is back online, he is able to detonate the tank in the ocean, and heads to New York to help the Avengers, where he meets them having shawarma. Back at Stark's home, Tony reveals to Rhodes his "Iron Legion", suits of armor he has created to help in all different types of situations. It is then revealed that the Mandarin was able to gather enough data on the War Machine armor while he was battling the tank, to help him defeat Iron Man.[93]
Future
According to director Shane Black, Robert Downey, Jr.'s contract with Marvel Studios, which expires after the release of Iron Man 3, may extend in order for the actor to appear in a second Avengers film and at least one more Iron Man film. He said: "There has been a lot of discussion about it: 'Is this the last Iron Man for Robert [Downey, Jr.]?' Something tells me that it will not be the case, and [he] will be seen in a fourth, or fifth." Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has said that the character of Tony Stark will continue to be featured in the Marvel Cinematic Universe regardless of Downey's involvement.[94] Reports also indicate that Downey may appear as Stark in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy film in 2014.[95] Downey has since said he is open to extending his contract, stating he feels "there's a couple other things we've gotta do" with his character.[96]
Notes
- ^ As part of the deal transferring the distribution rights of future releases of Marvel Studios films to the Walt Disney Studios, the Paramount Pictures logo appears instead of any Disney logo, as was the case in the film The Avengers.[97]
