It's a new War Machine suit.
In comics, the Iron Patriot armor is a Stark armor stolen, redesigned, and used by Norman Osborn when he basically takes control of the world, becoming the head of SHIELD and other various entities.
To make things easier on you guys;
Thanks Man, I will be having the Thor one!

They sure are using a lot of full practical suit shots on the next IM. I'm guessing it's due to the fact that we're not working on it. Hopefully the CG suits look good.
To make things easier on you guys;
I'll take the DareDevil one, thanks!
Really want a Marvel movie with him. And bring him in for The Avengers 3.
That's a bummer. Are you guys handling any of the solo phase 2 projects?

Who replaced you guys?
No it does not. To give the the long story short, it took place during the dark reign story arc. For reasons seen at the end of the secret invasion story arc before it, Norman Osborne is loved and trusted again. He is given Tony Stark's job and basically makes up his team of Avengers. The majority of said Avengers are actually villains that he felt he could control in some way/shape/form and he had them dressed up like previous Avengers to fool the public. Bullseye was Hawkeye, Daken was Wolverine, Venom was Spider-man, Moonstone was Mrs Marvel, etc, etc.
He himself went into Ironman's armor storage and gave it the stars and stripes paint job. He was going to represent what the "Knight" and the "Soldier" did. You will not be seeing this story at all in Ironman 3

Can't comment on the projects still in active bidding, since all that stuff is still up in the air.
Scanline won the IM3 bid.

Ah, I figured the bidding would be done for those.
GOTG will be veryyyyyyy interesting. That's going to be a ton of work.

Looks like they've worked on many big projects, but how many were they the main house for?
Also, John Toll is the cinematographer on Iron Man 3? Good news.
Seems I have only seen Iron-Man, Thor and The Avengers of the Marvel Universe films.
I gotta see Iron-Man 2, The Incredible Hulk and Captain America as well before the sequels.
Would it be possible for Marvel to incorporate the likes of DareDevil, Punisher and Black Panther into an eventual The Avengers 3? I don't think they would be able to blend them together, their universes are too different?

Black Panther would be the most likely of the three, given his long history as an Avenger in the comics.
Punisher wouldn't fit at all on a team like the Avengers.
Daredevil...I think they'll add him, but I personally would rather they didn't.
Why is that? Just curiosity. =)
To make things easier on you guys;
Props for doing this man. Dig the Thor fo sho.
I just think DD doesn't really "fit." Even though he is an Avenger in the comics now, I just don't think the team is really his style. I like him hanging on his own in Hell's Kitchen, working with local heroes like Spidey on occasion.
Plus, his addition would add another "martial arts guy with minimal powers", of which we already have quite a few.

So Marvel gets DareDevil back and the first thing they do is assassinate the character?
Thats like saying as soon as Marvel wanted to get shit popping with IronMan they should have started with Civil War.
Not Shadowland not any time soon, heck not ever....im sure most of us would rather imagine Shadowland just never happened.
The best thing about Shadowland was it gave us DareDevil: Reborn.
You want to make a good movie, start from DareDevil: Reborn, we dont need the whole origin(again) just start it here.
The opening of the movie can tell the whole life story the same way that brilliant opening montage of Wolverine did.......do the first few chapters of Reborn then have him hit up a crazy New York
Mark 47 and Iron Patriot armors:
What armor is the Iron Patriot armor based off?
That doesnt look like the Mark 1 from Iron Man 2.....anyone have inside information about how and/or why this armor pops up?

We don't really know the details about the film version. The Iron Patriot in the comics was an older armor confiscated by Norman Osborne (The Green Goblin). Since he can't appear in MCU films, we don't know the specific reason why it's being used in this movie.
In the books it was less powerful than Stark's armor. It was an older model and Osborne replaced the repulsor tech with the Unibeam hardware because he didn't have the technical expertise to make use of the more powerful weapons.

I thought it was already confirmed that the Iron Patriot armor is the new War Machine armor. It's Rhodes in there.

Yeah yeah, Dark Reign and Siege are my favorite events in recent Marvel history, more so than even AvX.
But im curious about this armor in this universe.
Ahhh, but its not a repainting of the Mark 1 right, cuz it looks vastly different....I forget the end of Iron Man 2 didnt Rhodes like run away with the War Machine armor or something?
So did the military repaint and respec the War Machine armor?
Wait wait wait. WHAT?
[edit] I'm quite clueless as to how it all works, what's the 'bidding' process? I would just assume that if you did an amazing job in one movie, they'd have you back on for another..

That's what I thought, too. ILM did a fantastic job on IM1 and 2. It'd make sense for you guys to do IM3
Outsourced to China ILM
Haha even Jarvis is a real person now.
But he was always a real person in the comics, except for Potter, she has a AI Jarvis in her suit.
Yeah. Rhodes kept the suit at the end of IM 2. I'd assume there is a story element that explains the new paint job and upgrades.

To make things easier on you guys;
Taking Spidey!
*gets sad about his eternal absence from the Marvel films*
I don't think there are people in those suits.
Maybe the 47 means something else than what number in the line it is?

Studios rarely enter multi-film contracts with VFX houses. Each project goes out for bid separately.

Mark 7 is what was used in The Avengers. There are going to be 40 suits (for some reason) in Iron Man 3...so 47 would be his latest one.

Item 47 tech?
First thing that came to mind as well. Gives more purpose to the One Shot film.

Unless im mistaken this suit is akin to when Iron Man used his techno powers to control multiple Iron Man armors.
So there are possibly 40 other Armors that Iron Man will be controlling using the Mark 47.
An army of Iron Men to fuck shit up.....i wonder if he will keep the ability for The Avengers 2?

Was he ever called the War Machine in Iron Man 2 even in the credits i dont think theres any mention of War Machine.
Also, is it confirmed he is called the Iron Patriot?
Couldnt he still be called War Machine while having this paint job?
He certainly could.
Also I don't think he was ever given a Hero name in movie. The closest thing was Tony asking him if he wanted to be a War Machine. The line was most certainly created to be a name drop but if he offically gets it as a title I don't know.
They did however use it for all the marketing stuff and all his toys so I had hoped the name would be offical as far in universe goes.
wtf???
ilm did an amazing job with the iron man suits (and other effects), why change now?
He's never officially called War Machine. Tony mentions it almost as an insult in a line of dialogue.

Cheaper budgets. Or at least, they're hoping.
oh boy...this will bite them in the ass. scanline is a good studio, but no chance in hell they can produce visuals on the level of the iron man suits in 1,2 or avengers.
i hope the effects are not as bad as in captain america...
i really hope ilm will be back for avengers 2 or iron man 4.

That Iron Man recolouring is still so, so bad
In honor of the new IM3 photos, I'll take the Iron Man avatar.
Tony Stark calls Rhodes "The War Machine" during their fight in the mansion.
Also, Marvel copyrighted the name "Iron Patriot" just for the film.

40 Iron Men, Mandarin, Radioactive Man, Firepower, Coldblood, War Machine, plus Downey's newly inflated pay rate. The budget probably blew up and they had to cut corners somewhere. Could still be good though.
Deadline is reporting Scarlett Johansson will be in Captain America 2. Also the following actresses are in the running to play Cap's love interest.
• Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones)
• Jessica Brown Findlay (Downton Abbey)
• Teresa Palmer (I Am Number Four)
• Imogen Poots (Fright Night)
• Alison Brie (Mad Men, Community)
