Like the majority of you, we are very much looking forward to seeing the Mandarin, when Iron Man 3 is released later this year. From what we have seen and heard of the Mandarin in the movie, it looks like he could be a great villain and Marvel President Kevin Feige has been talking about the character.
Ben Kingsley as the Mandarin
Feige explained to MTV, “We felt there was leeway to explore the Mandarin in a way that hasn’t been explored before. We found we couldn’t point to any sort of definitive Mandarin story in the comics, but if you print this, I’m sure a million fans will point to a specific story.”
He added, “So as we’ve done with many of the films, we did an amalgamation. The Mandarin is relentless: he’s a non-stop threat, and you’ve seen that in the first teaser trailer when Tony Stark’s house tumbles into the sea. He doesn’t mess around, this guy.”
