Iron Man 3’s press machine has been turned to 11 lately, as we’ve seen multiple new posters in the last few days, and now new character and plot details have been revealed in Empire Magazine. The publication was reportedly shown 15 minutes of footage from the new Marvel film and it has revealed quite a few juicy details.
According to Empire, in the footage that it was shown Tony Stark is seen seeking the help of a ten-year-old boy, played by actor Ty Simpkins, and the magazine confirms that Aldrich Killian (Guy Pearce) will definitely be in the fold of the film’s major villain, The Mandarin. It also reveals that Killian could possibly be using the ‘Extremis’ virus in an attempt to gain superhuman abilities. There are quite a few more details, but we suggest picking up the latest issue if you’re interested in the full scoop.
Below you’ll find excerpts from the Empire issue which detail the footage revealed to the magazine and some quotes from Marvel’s president Kevin Feige, which definitely give us some hope that this trilogy will have a much different final act than the previous Iron Man films. If fans remember, the last two films ended with somewhat of a similar battle between two armored foes – not the case in Iron Man 3, according to Feige.
What do you think of the new Iron Man 3 character and plot details? Are they giving away too much too soon? The film will hit theaters May 3, but with specifics like the ones above, we’re a bit skeptical about checking out the new trailer that’s reportedly attached to Disney’s Oz: The Great and Powerful.
Who are we kidding, of course we’ll be checking out the new Iron Man 3 trailer when it’s released in the next two weeks. Interested in seeing a biological reality which allows people to glow and rip apart Iron Man suits?
