        From Bleeding Cool:

        Any doubt has now gone out of the window. Ben Kingsley is playing The Mandarin in Iron Man 3.

        He was revealed, in full costume, at the end of tonight’s Comic-Con promo footage. The first thing we saw were the rings, but the hair and the robe and the whole kit and caboodle were revealed as he sat back on his ornate chair.

          Well, I guess we know ONE cast member from First Avenger who is returning (besides Cap).

            For some reason I thought they would have saved the Bucky storyline for a Cap 3...

                The Guardians movie will be released on my birthday, sweet!

                Ah!! The Mandarin! Need...pictures:



                But..there's some bad news too:
                At the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con, Joss Whedon announced he has yet to make a decision about directing the sequel.

                Well, I mean, he does have 3 years to think about it (to be fair) so hopefully no other director will jump in to take it away from him.

                  falcon has been cast. if they are cherry picking. it will echo great moments from brunaker's winter soldie storyline where there are divided loyalties between new partner and old partner. i aslo suspect that they will be using elements from the ultimate falcon... scientist/shield agent with a leather costume and energy/foil wings. I have no doubt they will set him up to join the Avengers in the second movie.

                      Falcon is a cool way to go. Nice to see him get in on the action.

                        here is my thoughts on the Winter Soldier for the Cap sequel... they set it up in the first one, but this could very well be Marvel thinking long term on possible ways to keep a franchise going without rebuilding an audience by rebooting. this allows Chris Evans to do his three cap films and a couple of avengers or however many he's signed up for... and then Bucky takes over as Cap for another cycle of films.

                        I know Jeremy Renner is already in line to take over the Mission Impossible franchise, but I think it would be cool to have a Mission Impossible style of Black Ops/Secret Avengers in a film starring Black Widow, Hawkeye, Falcon, Winter Soldier, Nick Fury, the incorrigible Ant Man and maybe War Machine. Introduce the Punisher into the Marvel U too if they want to go the Dirty Dozen route with it.

                          Ed, you may be right and what you wrote makes total sense, but respectfully, I hope you're wrong. With an Avengers movie coming once every three or four years, I want to see the big guns in primary roles, not all the backups and second stringers, even if they have to recast some of the roles down the line.

                          I hope there's at least one more Avengers movie with Iron Man, Thor and Cap and possibly Hulk, although I wouldn't mind seeing the Avengers vs. Hulk. If Thanos is going to be the villain, to me, that's too much for a second-tier group of Avengers to fight.

                          If the new Falcon is a Shield Agent, then make it a Shield film with Black Widow and Hawkeye and Falcon and Fury and throw in War Machine.

                          But with the Avengers, I truly want to see the World's Mightiest Heroes. If any new characters are introduced give us Vision and Scarlet Witch, Mantis, Power Man, Wonder Man and Giant Man, Captain Marvel.

                            I totally get the significance of Captain America: Winter Soldier, but what about Thor: Dark World?

                            I'm guessing Hela or Pluto or Mephisto even, or is there a Dark World storyline, I'm not aware of?

                              I couldn't figure that one out either. Supposedly Loki is still involved in the sequel so his daughter Hela seems to make the most sense...
