New Image and Set Preview from Iron Man 2

A brand new image has been released for Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 2, and comes courtesy of the IESB. As well as the image, the IESB were also given the opportunity by director Jon Favreau to visit the set of Tony Stark’s (Robert Downey Jr.) workshop earlier this year. To give you some idea as to the experience check this out:

One of the nicest guys in the business, Favreau was inviting and charming for the entire duration of our visit, although I heard there may have been some Chinese water torture shortly after we left.

He enthusiastically took us into the Iron Man world and we didn’t look back.

Our group had the privilege of visiting Tony Stark’s Work Shop (in which we had to wear these awesome high tech booties for our shoes). He had blue prints covering his office floor along with old magazines and newspaper clippings. And the workshop itself has changed a bit from the first film.

Instead of just the tabletop holographic computer to work with, his entire workshop floor is now the same glossy black material with lights at every square foot interval. Again, this is the floor of his entire workshop mind you…this lends to some great special fx visuals for the final film. We wear our booties not to protect our shoes but to protect this beautiful laquer floor from being damaged.

As Downey ponders the model and scans every inch at eye level as the camera pans out he says, “The key to the future is where?”
