After a brief halt in production after the star sustained an ankle injury, filming picked up today in Miami Beach, Florida for Marvel's Iron Man 3 flick. And while Robert Downey Jr. made his “triumphant” return earlier today, as well a tease of the Iron Patriot armor, Tony Stark's Mark XLVII suit has been spotted on the set.










Described as a “technological crisis thriller,” set in the world of international war, arms & terror, Marvel Studios' “Iron Man 3” stars Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Rebecca Hall, Dale Dickey, Ashley Hamilton, James Badge Dale, with Sir Ben Kingsley and Jon Favreau. Shane Black (“Kiss Kiss Bang Bang”) takes over directorial duties from Jon Favreau, who helmed the first two “Iron Man” films. Principal photography will occur primarily in North Carolina and China. And “Iron Man 3” is set for release in May 3, 2013.

It looks like they added some silver to the armor since its big reveal at comic-con.

I'm curious why they have so many practical suits in this one, I thought they pretty much perfected the cgi iron man suits.

Atleast we get to see it in "action"

@SpoonWielder - They always have one on set to match up colour and lighting on the CG version, like they did with the practical Destroyer on the set of Thor.

It will look better on screen.

The silver adds a lil touch but those brown shoulder pads are terrible
MrSteiners - 10/1/2012, 2:56 PM
Looks more "warish".

Looks gorgeous even without the added SFX and lighting. Cannot wait to see this on film. Kudos to whoever designed it.

The reason the CG looked so good in IM2 and Avengers is parts of the suit were actually practical at times and just the legs, arms and face-plate was CG
Ha1frican - 10/1/2012, 3:33 PM
@Avengers72 i see someone listened to the commentary track ;)
MisterMagurlypse - 10/1/2012, 3:33 PM
I'm sorry, I just don't care for it. I'm hyped as hell for this movie and to finally see the Mandrian, but the Mark XLVII suit just isn't doing it for me. Still, can't wait!!

Cipher@ lmao :)

New armour is growing on me! Badass.
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 10/1/2012, 3:40 PM
Where the hell is his neck? LOL. All kidding aside the armor is growing on me.
JonathaNisMagnuM - 10/1/2012, 3:41 PM
Im ok w/ the new suit, but why is it called the mark 47?!? & I agree w/ Gambit, it will look better onscreen. Plus, a new suit in ever Iron Man flick is cool, because he's always upgrading his armor...doesnt work good for batman, spidey, cap & everyone else who in the books have resorted to the same shit all these yrs
sexfoodcomics - 10/1/2012, 3:42 PM
I don't care what anyone says. I'm digging that armor a lot!!!
Vapes - 10/1/2012, 3:47 PM
Comic Iron Man always has a variety. I'm sure for Avengers 2 he'll be back in the red.
CharlesTheIncredible - 10/1/2012, 3:47 PM
the armor looks better than when it was first revealed. I guess its growing on me
Bodwulf - 10/1/2012, 3:50 PM
Is that Ruffalo in the last pic ?
Jer3miah - 10/1/2012, 4:12 PM
Dang, I wonder where they're filming at. I wanna go there, but that'd be a wild goose chase in south FL.
IIIAdamantiumIII - 10/1/2012, 4:38 PM
I hope he jokes about the avengers , cracking jokes about how he'll call his jolly green friend or one of his best friends is a god ect , or if he runs out of power "could sure use Blondy right about now" ect
BonoDickinson - 10/1/2012, 4:42 PM
I don't much care for the busy detail but am sure will turn a blind eye to it in the movie. Although, I never got used to Raimi's Spider-Man costume.
marvel72 - 10/1/2012, 4:57 PM
just give us the f*ckin trailer.
sKeemAn - 10/1/2012, 5:11 PM
Hopefully it looks better in motion and a lil cgi
ironkidd - 10/1/2012, 5:22 PM
I LUV IT i cant wait for war machine and iron man to stand next together with his army of suits behind
Bark4Soul - 10/1/2012, 5:30 PM
I get that he is always upgrading but does he ever explain some of these upgrades? Like WHY he is upgrading..
NotU - 10/1/2012, 5:35 PM
stoked for the movie.
this armor makes him look like the King of Ketchup and Mustard.
CorronZenith30 - 10/1/2012, 5:55 PM
I'm really liking this suit actually and as some of you have been saying, once the actions starts and we see it in full swing I think it'll look sweet! bye the way, hey everyone.
mgeoff88 - 10/1/2012, 5:57 PM
That looks so much better than when the suit was first revealed. It looks like they repainted the gold parts.

I can't wait to see the trailer for this!

@CorronZenith30 Hey, what's up? :)
CorronZenith30 - 10/1/2012, 6:04 PM
@mgeoff88 Hey mate :)glad to officially be part of the community now, I've been a long time follower. cheers for the welcome.

@CorronZenith30 Np, glad you decided to become a member. :)

There's a lot of cool people on this site, but like any other online community, they're are also trolls and e-thugs. Actually lately, the owner of this site has been cracking down hard on guys like that, so it's calmer around here.
CorronZenith30 - 10/1/2012, 6:32 PM
@cipher - cheers mate.

@mgeoff88 - good to hear man, I have actually noticed the threads have been a lot more civilized lately. thanks again
TheEnd - 10/1/2012, 7:27 PM
Great!! now a trailer please! :D
JorLBola - 10/1/2012, 7:55 PM
Why the full armor?? It would be awesome a real suit not just a torso and the rest made with cgi :D
Fogs - 10/2/2012, 6:41 AM
@JorLBola - they did that in the previous movies. That upwards pose makes me wonder if theres really someone inside or if it's turned off.
shawnb - 10/2/2012, 7:52 AM
I'm really liking the new armor. Plus, it looks really freaking tall!
fettastic - 10/2/2012, 8:38 AM
I guess it was just the lighting at Comic Con, but I thought the dark areas were black, not red. Frankly, that would have been cooler. i mean, it hardly looks like the classic Iron Man anymore anyway.
monoknife - 10/2/2012, 10:49 AM
Some high res pics that really do the new look justice:
