IRON MAN 3 Concept Art Shows War Machine/Iron Patriot Trying On Some Cool Comic Accurate Armors
Iron Man 3 put the spotlight on Rhodey in a big way as he suited up as both War Machine and Iron Patriot. In this concept art from the threequel, we get to see alternate designs for both of those suits...
Iron Man 3 massively exceeded expectations at the box office back in 2013, earning over $1.2 billion and scoring the acclaim of critics with a solid 80% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Shane Black took charge of the threequel after Jon Favreau decided to move on from the franchise and while it's fair to say that fans enjoyed this action-packed adventure for the Armored Avenger, there were some liberties taken with the source material which definitely upset a lot of people.
While The Mandarin immediately leaps to mind, Iron Patriot was given a totally new identity as well because Norman Osborn was nowhere to be seen and it was James "Rhodey" Rhodes/War Machine who took on the identity.
War Machine also got a much-needed upgrade and this batch of concept art from the Marvel Studios threequel shows various alternate designs for both suits, some of which are definitely more inspired by the comic books that what ended up on the big screen; Iron Patriot looks positively villainous in some of these pieces and War Machine looks like he's stepped straight out of the source material.
