The La Times is pointing out the obvious in a recent quote they have posted they say Iron Man is already in the works. Its somewhat old news since according to Military.com Iron Man 2 will begin shooting in March of 2009. Which of course means it has to go into production quick to get ready for shooting.
The plot for Iron Man 2 has been revealed, although not confirmed the plot sounds plausible so I am sharing it. The word is according to a scooper at CinemaBlend that Tony Stark will team with Nicky Fury from the Avenger project and SHIELD to take on the terrorist known as The Mandarin. I did some looking and it appears this rumor might have started with an interview Jon Favreau did with EW where he mentioned mandarin, quote;
“Demon in a Bottle is one of the very strongest story lines of the of the series, and Iron Man is not a comic book character who is known for having wonderful storylines. He’s known for having great suits, great characters, but the villains kind of get thin at times, and it’s so very dated when you look at Communism and the metaphor. Politically, much of it doesn’t hold up well. And the Mandarin is incredibly challenging in that respect. So we have challenges ahead of us. Demon in a Bottle tends to be one that, from a storytelling perspective, is compelling to all of us.
So it appears that Cinemablends source, and EW are both saying Mandarin and in EW's case its from Jon. Cinemablends un-named source also says that THOR will make a cameo in Iron Man 2 but this last bit I find unlikely and frankly of little interest. Thor in Iron Man? No thanks.
