Despite most of Marvel Studios' attention planted on promoting the release of The Avengers, production for their next film, Iron Man 3, is reportedly moving swiftly. Now, according to ComicBook.com, who've been keeping tabs on the Shane Black-directed production in Wilmington, North Carolina, reports that set work has begun. Additionally revealing the movie's title that'll be used while filming is underway, read on below.

Iron Man 3 is currently in pre-production under the code name “Caged Heat.” Comicbook.com has reporters on-site in Wilmington, North Carolina where Iron Man 3 is scheduled to film at EUE/Screen Gems Studios. We’re hearing reports that set construction has already begun. As far as filming, we’re still hearing the target for initial filming will be very early May (with a possibility of late April). Even though Iron Man 3 has been officially announced as filming in Wilmington, the code name “Caged Heat” is still being used by various sources in the local Wilmington film industry.

Robert Downey Jr. is set to return as the genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, 'Tony Stark,' while Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle and Jon Favreau are reportedly locked in to reprise their roles respectively. There has also been heavy reports that Scarlett Johansson will reprise her 'Black Widow' role. And with filming possibly commencing in April, Iron Man 3 hits theaters on May 3, 2013!

Would really love to see more of War Machine, that's for sure. Won't even mind if Rhodey takes over...oh, wait. :P

In all seriousness, here's hoping we'll hear a lot more of this soon.

This won't be the last Iron Man movie, so maybe they'll hold off on The Mandarin. I'd like to see a Ghost/Spymaster team-up.

Could "Caged Heat" be a synonym for "Demon in a bottle"? Heat = demon, caged = in a bottle?

It will be so interesting to see Shane Blacks first comic book movie be Iron Man III. I believe Shane will bring Iron Man III to a unique road of comic book movies, 2013 is our year.

So long as the villain isn't another Iron Man clone I'll be happy. Then again, I'll likely be happy with whatever we get.

Someone should put up a poll of "Who will have the bet flying sequences of 2013?"
Iron Man 3
Man of Steel
Thor 2

Because I would like to know what everyone's choice would be

I am very interested to see how this film does. When this movie comes out next year it will make five movies featuring Iron Man in six years. I know the nerds will show up, but will the average film goer be a little Iron Man fatigued? Having Robert Downey Jr. doesn't hurt, but it will be very interesting to see how this all plays out at the theaters.
