Story
"The world is aware that billionaire inventor Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is the armored superhero Iron Man. Under pressure from the government, the press, and the public to share his technology with the military, Tony is unwilling to divulge the secrets behind the Iron Man armor because he fears the information will slip into the wrong hands. With Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow), and James "Rhodey” Rhodes (Don Cheadle) at his side, Tony forges new alliances and confronts powerful new forces."http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/paramount/ironman/
Few other plot details have emerged, other than the villain of the movie, Whiplash having a vendetta against Tony Stark, and Black Widow's role. Iron Man 2 is the second movie of a trilogy of films, and this one will take place six months after the end of the first film. Tony Stark will be coming to terms with his age, Pepper getting a boyfriend, and begin to dip into the alcoholism which is a trademark for Tony Stark in the comic books. Iron Man 2 would not be a movie adaptation of the famous Demon in a bottle storyline, but would take place between his origin, and that storyline.
