Kevin Feige Verizon FiOS Twitter Q&A Summary

The Q&A [Feige took over the Iron Man twitter account] started a little slow but things picked up a bit towards the end. Extremis will turn up in one of the post Iron Man 3 Marvel Cinematic Universe films confirmed Feige. Who thinks Extremis will show up again in the form of Brandt (Stephanie Szostak) as we never saw what happened to her character? We definitely saw other Extremis soldiers survive far worse than the injury that seemingly put her down for the count.

Is there a common trait that defines a Marvel movie? What is Marvel Studios' legacy?

That's a tough one to answer in 140 characters. But if we had to distill it down, it's epic storytelling with a human spirit. #FiOSIM3Chat

Was the idea behind introducing Harley to transition into Young Avengers?

It was an idea that our co-writers Shane Black & Drew Pearce had to take Tony out of his element & away from his usual allies. #FiOSIM3Chat

How does the team come up with Iron Man's various technologies?

It comes from a variety of places. The comics are our first resource & the screenplay often calls for new & original suits. #FiOSIM3Chat

Our vis dev department led by Ryan Meinerding fleshes out the new ideas before handing off to our VFX team to bring to life #FiOSIM3Chat

Very important question: What song would Iron Man be most likely to sing during karaoke?

Probably AC/DC, but the entire team here has had Blue by Eiffel 65 in our heads for the last 5 months. #FiOSIM3Chat

Did you ever think of a tech that was too far-fetched?

Making the far-fetched seem real is the fun of film making. The suit case suit in #IronMan 2 is a great example. #FiOSIM3Chat

Who would win in a fight, Iron Man or Robocop?

Great question, @danreyes. Love Robocop, but not a fair fight. Tony would be victorious. #FiOSIM3Chat

How long did it take to write the script for the movie?

We started outlining the story with Shane Black & Drew Pearce in March 2011, @missnewsboys, & then continued for almost 2 years #FiOSIM3Chat

Why doesn't Tony like to be handed things?

Hey @sparktakussug! Because Robert doesn't like to be handed stuff. #FiOSIM3Chat

Was the @Iron_Man malibu house ever built?

The Malibu house sets were among the biggest constructed in the films, @tmachytkova The exterior however only exists digitally #FiOSIM3Chat

What was S.H.I.E.L.D up to during Iron Man 3?

#SHIELD was very busy, as will be revealed in future films. #FiOSIM3Chat

— Tony Stark (@Iron_Man) May 10, 2013

Any plans to explore any of Marvel's newer franchises?

Yes. Guardians of the Galaxy on August 1, 2014. #FiOSIM3Chat

— Tony Stark (@Iron_Man) May 10, 2013

Which character that hasn't been in the suit would you like to see put it on?

Happy wore it in the comics, I think it would be cool to see that in the film. #FiOSIM3Chat

— Tony Stark (@Iron_Man) May 10, 2013

Will we see Extremis again after IM3?

Yes. #FiOSIM3Chat
