Iron Man 3 is loosely based on Warren Ellis' six-issue "Extremis" comic book story arc which focuses on the spread of a virus through nanotechnology that eventually causes Tony Stark to engineer a new suit that is integrated directly into his body. The Mandarin, a terrorist villain and leader of the 10 Rings organization featured in the first two films, will finally make his entrance into the franchise.

After spending the past few months in production in North Carolina the cast and crew of Iron Man 3 have moved down to South Florida where they will film for the next few weeks. The following photos were snapped today on the set between takes:
