New IRON MAN 2 Images!

It’s really starting to sink in now that we’re getting a sequel to Iron Man. If you’d asked me 12 years ago if we’d see one Iron Man flick I’d have called you a turkey. But here we are getting a second helping.

USA Today nabbed themselves some new images from the flick and on-set with director Jon Favreau.

Looks like Whiplash, played by Mickey Rourke, did do some damage on that race-track after all.

Natasha Romanoff, aka Black Widow, played by Scarlett Johansson.

Gwenyth Paltrow returns as Pepper Potts, Tony Stark’s confidant and new director for Stark Industries.

Here’s our first good look at Don Cheadle as Lt. Colonel James “Rhodey” Rhodes and Sam Rockwell as Justin Hammer, Tony Stark’s new business adversary.

Robert Downey Jr., Jon Favreau and Don Cheadle on-set.

Favreau and Downey hit the ring.

Check back for continuous Iron Man 2 details as they come up. The film hits theaters May 7, 2010.
