Here’s the first shot of Mickey Rourke as the villain Whiplash in the upcoming film Iron Man 2.

Whiplash sports a power pack on his chest that looks similar to the one used by Iron Man. “The technologies are definitely related, and that’s part of the core theme of the film,” says Favreau.

The character’s alter ego, Ivan Vanko, is a Russian who, Favreau says, “has constructed his own version of a suit.” Among the creative alterations: a pair of whips, powered by the suit’s glowing chest piece. Whiplash “is going to light them up,” says Rourke.

Looks cool, but this is really just a tiny little taste of what’s in store for this mega sequel. Rourke is certainly up for the task.
