‘IRON MAN 2’ COUNTDOWN: 8 DAYS

Tony Stark breaks all the rules (even the one that says superheroes must keep a secret identity), and he always seems to come out on top -- that’s why we love him. But now comes ‘Iron Man 2,’ a film about secret dangers, the sins of the father and the nasty price of modern celebrity. The movie lands May 7 in the U.S., and every day until then, we’ll have behind-the-scenes scoops on the summer’s most anticipated film.

More videos from the stars of ‘Iron Man 2,’ including an oddly sedate Robert Downey Jr.
