Although Iron Man 3 won’t be released until next year, some rumored aspects of the plot have been revealed! More details after the jump, but beware of spoilers!

The Collider writes:

Apparently the entirety of Iron Man 3 may or may not involve nanobots.  Latino Review is reporting the scoop that the film will revolve around nanobot technology “that can make villains” and “that can also make Tony Stark more than a man in the suit.” Apparently the idea for using nanobots is given to Stark by Captain America in The Avengers, given that Whedon’s film will serve as the tee-up for Iron Man 3. There’s no confirmation one way or another, but LR has been pretty solid with scoops in the past.

Robert Downey Jr. has also stated that Iron Man 3 has the potential to the best in the trilogy   Filming begins this summer.

What do you think about the over-arching plot use of nanobot technology?  Are you excited to see The Avengers this May and Iron Man 3 next year?
