Iron Man 3 Even before the smash success of the original “Iron Man,” Marvel Studios was addressing the possibility of multiple sequels .

Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has expressed his love for 3-D technology , as has Favreau . So will “Iron Man 3” go down that road ? We’ll have to wait and see.
