I can just see the look of joy on the faces of TJ And Ethan the sons of some very good friends of mine at seeing this picture. Those looks will be echoed in many a home and office the planet over.

Perhaps some of the owners of joyous looks might think; ''The iron Man suits, and wait...an updated suit too?''

I'm sure widespread grinning will be the result.

I am of course talking about this first shot from the next in the Iron Man series, Iron Man 2 (due in 2010). In which we see Tony stark at work in his super high tech lab, with a row of his armoured suits visible behind him.

Iron Man 2 already has Samuel Jackson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Scarlet Johansson Don Cheadle (As Jim Rhodes), Sam Rockwell and Mickey Rourke amongst it's cast. Word has it, that Kate Mara, Paul bettany and Clark Gregg will also be helping Mr Downey Jnr to light up the screen.

Iron Man was a success with the fans and the cinema going public in general. It delivered entertainment in bundles, and , in Downey Jnr had a charismatic lead. With many of the same people involved in the sequel, and the addition of a few new faces, Iron Man2 promises to deliver thrills spills, laughs and suspense once more.
