Whiplash (Mickey Rourke) sports a power pack on his chest that looks similar to the one used by Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.). "The technologies are definitely related, and that's part of the core theme of the film," says director Jon Favreau.

The character's alter ego, Ivan Vanko, is a Russian who, Favreau says, "has constructed his own version of a suit." Among the creative alterations: a pair of whips, powered by the suit's glowing chest piece, expected to keep Iron Man cracking. Whiplash "is going to light them up," says Rourke.

This first image of the character shows the villain making an appearance at the Monaco Historic Grand Prix.

Excellent.. Nothing short of Excellent.. I'll bet this thread gets up to 2 pages or more of fanboys saying IRONMAN is overrated and Rourke's semi-constume(cause it isn't finished) sucks.. I only say this cause AICN has posters bitching about how this movie was ovrrated in an effort to tout TDK once again as though comicbook fans simply are never satisfied ever...

The villians look very boring. Im not even sure if its going to make as much as the first movie but seems like people think it will. The thing with sequels is that they usually bring in more interesting characters

Ot doesn't matter in this case...the original was really well-liked and all and with its release date a $125+ million opening is pretty much guaranteed. And legs won't be terrible either.

Why couldn't they go with the Mandarin as the Villian? Don't get me wrong Mickey is a great actor and all but Whiplash and I think Crimson Dynamo don't really interest me at all. I will still go see this movie but IMO like El Murato I think the Villians look boring.

As much as I like Iron Man, WTF? Rourke is playing the Wrestler again but nuclear powered?

I dont know much about Iron Man. Though I liked the first movie.
I also dont know enemies like Whiplash.

And from that point of view I have to say....It looks quite ridiculous.

Finished or not, they made it look like a sequel to a $300 grosser.

That picture looks like something from a Mad Max sequel.
