Created in 1963 by Marvel magician Stan Lee, Iron Man became the first superhero whose super powers were of his own invention.Taking all this time to finally get to the big screen, the film version focuses on billionaire industrialist and creative genius Tony Stark.As a major U.S. weapons contractor, his product protects America around the world. All his fame and fortune come crashing down, however, when his convoy is targeted, and he is taken hostage with life threatening injuries. When he is ordered by his main captor to build the ultimate weapon, he turns the tables and erects an incredible armored suit that not only saves his life but helps him to escape the terrorists. Once he is back on U.S. ground, he changes his business plan and continues to refine his invention that provides him with super powers no one has ever dreamed of. Against the wishes of his ambitious No. 2 with the fun name, Obadiah Stane, Stark sets a new agenda, aided by his trusted assistant Pepper Potts and military confidante Rhodey. This leads him to uncover a diabolical plot against the world and make full use of his new chrome plated alter-ego.
