In a new behind-the-scenes clip, Robert Downey Jr., Marvel’s Kevin Feige, and Iron Man 3 director Shane Black discuss Tony Stark's obsession with building up an artillery of Iron Man suits.
“At the beginning of this movie there are 42 suits,” says Black in the one-and-a-half-minute featurette. “He’s been doing nothing but building suits and suits and suits and suits. It’s an obsession.” adds Feige. The film’s suit construction supervisor, Lindsay MacGowan (the real genius behind Stark’s well-armoured wardrobe), shows off the first seven Iron Man getups and Downey introduces the new bomb disposal suit as well as the pinnacle of his character’s life’s work, the Mark 42 (controlled by sub-dermal implants with more advanced technological capabilities than the kind favoured by today’s body modification enthusiasts).
The array of suits shown in the clip (and in some of the previously released trailers) is pretty impressive—which is good news for the film, since the franchise relies heavily on the cool factor of Iron Man’s hi-tech armour. The ever-modest Downey Jr. sounds confident: “We wanted this film to have the best act three of them all, and we’ve achieved that.”
Opening across the Philippines on April 24 in IMAX 3D, Digital 3D and regular theatres, “Iron Man 3” is presented by Marvel Studios in association with Paramount Pictures and DMG Entertainment. Marvel Studios' President Kevin Feige is producing and Jon Favreau, Louis D'Esposito, Charles Newirth, Victoria Alonso, Stephen Broussard, Alan Fine, Stan Lee and Dan Mintz are executive producers. The film is distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures.
