Sticking to the Original Blueprints Keeps Iron Man 3 Working

by Zoe Chevat | 11:00 am, May 6th, 2013

“The world is getting weird,” declares faithful former bodyguard Happy (Jon Favreau) early in the first act of Iron Man 3. He’s not wrong. Everybody’s favorite genius billionare playboy philanthropist is back for a fourth round, facing a changing world, and a changing self. After the invasion of New York, and the start of the Avengers, there’s plenty on the table for Mr. Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) to handle, from terrorists to his mercurial relationship to his own obsessions. Fortunately for us, though, IM3 doesn’t take too steep of a dive into Tony’s demons. It stays at a neat cruising altitude: charming, effusive, with requisite explosions aplenty. Much like the most used and battered of Tony Stark’s suits, Iron Man 3 has some loose pieces that rattle, but it holds together for a fun, familiar ride.

Material under the cut contains arc-reactor-powered SPOILERS. Read at your own discretion.

by Jill Pantozzi | 10:16 am, April 25th, 2013

Last night we posted a livestream of the Iron Man 3 premiere from the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood. Today, Disney has graciously shared some images from the red carpet and after party. I guess I was spoiled by Robert Downey Jr. in lederhosen but I’m a little let down he didn’t wear anything wacky. Take a look at the stars from the film and see who else popped up from the Marvel Universe.

Gwyneth Paltrow Talks About Suiting Up for Iron Man 3

by Susana Polo | 2:00 pm, March 28th, 2013

Gwyneth Paltrow confirmed in an interview the other day that she will indeed be suiting up Iron Man 3, a bit of news that we couldn’t be more excited about. Marvel has published the entire interview now, and so we can get even more info on how and when the decision to get Pepper in an Iron Man suit was made, and what it was like!

Okay, I know wanting to know what it’s like to be in an Iron Man suit is has a bit less entertainment journalist integrity to it compared to “how was the decision made to allow a female co-star to engage in some of the movie’s action in a dominant role made.” But… Iron Man suit!

Robert Downey Jr. Says Awesome Things About Women In Superhero Action Films

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:22 am, March 12th, 2013

“How do we have it so she’s not going [whining], ‘Tony!’ and I’m going [growling], ‘Where’s Pepper?’… That’s the other thing that I have been pushing for. She’s in great shape, she’s really game. There’s all these genre movies and you have these capable women and they’re like, ‘Oh my god, some action is happening, I better step away or get caught in something over here.’ It’s like, ‘Really, is that where we’re at in the 21st century?’” – Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr. speaking with Moviefone on how ridiculous it looks when women don’t get to be involved in the action.

He also mentioned he was the one who insisted on having Gwyneth Paltrow in The Avengers: ”I was like, ‘You can’t just pretend that I got in a fight with Rhodey and Pepper’s out of town.’ They said, ‘You can’t have both of them,’ so I said, ‘All right, I need Pepper.’”
