Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark First Picture

27 April 2007

Topics: Comic Book Movies

USA Today has your first look at Robert Downey Jr. in full Tony Stark mode, which includes Stark sporting what looks like a high-tech doohickey stuck to his chest. If the movie follows the original comic books, the “doohickey” is what is keeping Stark alive after he is badly injured, and the first of many “mechnical” enhancements to Stark that would lead to the creation of the Iron Man superhero. The picture is accompanied by a full article with “Iron Man” director Jon Favreau, but really, who cares. That picture just looks really cool. Did Downey Jr. get buffed or what? I guess lifting weights 5 days a week and doing martial arts in-between takes will rip a body pretty good. Check out the picture below and read the full article here.
