Iron Man Fun Facts

The Iron Man movies are amazing, so it's no surprise that they've created such a loyal, energetic fanbase. But only real, big-time fans know these fun facts...

  • A big portion of the dialogue in the first movie was actually improvised. Most of the cast enjoyed playing into the improv, but Robert Downey Jr. in particular loved to throw in an unexpected, comedic line.
  • Tony Stark was based on a real person named Howard Hughes. Howard is known for his billionaire status, playboy image, and engineering talent. Sound familiar?
  • Iron Man has been featured in 10 different movies in the Marvel Universe! Though there are only 3 Iron Man movies, the suited superhero shows up in tons of other Marvel films, too.
  • Tom Cruise was almost cast as Tony Stark. What would the movies look like if Robert Downey Jr. hadn't won the coveted lead role?
  • Iron Man first appeared in comics in 1963. So though his official franchise films didn't come around until 2008, the superhero has actually been around for a long time.
  • Robert Downey Jr. showed up to his first screen test in a tux. He wanted to look the part, and it definitely paid off.
  • When Iron Man was produced, it wasn't expected to be a big hit at the box office. It was mainly created to sell related items, like toys.
  • J.A.R.V.I.S. actually stands for a phrase that fits him very well! Specifically, it stands for "Just A Really Very Intelligent System."
  • According to Tony Stark's backstory, he went to University at the early age of 15. Which makes sense, given that he is a genius!
  • Iron Man earned two Oscar noms. So if you love the movie series, then it sounds like you have great taste.
