Latino Review have received some concept art in the post claiming to be Mickey Rourke’s Whiplash in Iron Man 2. The style of the image is inline with concept designs, the Rourke-ness and details are non-distinct, something a faker probably wouldn’t do. We’ll have to wait and see if it’s the real deal or not.

Latest updates include:
Leaving Edwards Air Force Base. Heading back to LA to finish out the week. My awesome crew worked their butts off. We got some great stuff.
Dusk in the high desert. The wind is blowing hard.

A french article from Maprincipaute has revealed that Iron Man 2 will be filming a large function room scene, a scene at the docks and a scene at the Casino. Iron Man 2 will be comprised of three major actions scenes, one of these shall include footage of Monaco. The translation via Google:
A large function room scene
A total of one hundred people are on the deck of the top secret shoot. The cameras will arise this morning between 6 am and 7 pm on the Boulevard Albert 1er. Then, following the Grand Prix circuit on Saturday 16 May, the shooting will continue Boulevard Louis II (between 6 am and 8 pm), dock of the United States between 8 am and noon then quai Albert-1er between 12h and 13h30. Sunday, teams invest Boulevard Albert 1st from 6am to 7am, the Avenue d’Ostende between 7am and 9am and Avenue of Spélugues between 9am and 11 hours. At these locations and schedules, periodic interruptions of traffic will be carried out.
But the peak of the shoot will be May 25, place du Casino, between 6 hours and 17 hours. A long sequence will be filmed with the participation of many extras. “There are three major action scenes in this movie, and one of them will be composed of footage in the Principality” says production. Only certainty, the film was released on screens in April 2010 and expects production even offer a sneak preview in the Principality!
On Location News have posted a selection of overly watermarked ‘for sale’ paparazzi images from the latest Randy’s Donuts shoot. Due to the commercial nature of the images I cannot include them here, but I can give you guys the link and a screenshot of the thumbnails. This is our first look at Nick Fury in Iron Man 2, with the familiar eye patch and trench coat. There are also many more shots of Robert Downey Jr. in the Iron Man suit, one includes the helmet being passed to him.
MAY 6th LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA **EXCLUSIVE** Robert Downey Jr. filming Iron Man 2. In this funny scene, Iron Man takes a doughnut break in the hole of a giant doughnut shop sign which is an LA landmark. Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury is below and ask Iron Man if he would like some coffee with his doughnuts.

The set reports and pictures are starting to come in from Randy’s Donuts. From the scene, James told Collider on the phone:
My friend – let’s call him James – said that filming at the location lasted between 45 minutes to an hour and there were tons of production assistants and production people around the set. That’s the reason why we don’t have a new picture for this article…he never felt like he could take out his camera and get the shot.
Anyhow, James said that he saw a stand in for Robert Downey Jr. (Tony Stark) on set and that he watched Nick Fury race up to the donut place in a blue government car and he got out and walked to his right to get a better view of where Iron Man would be. The camera was on a crane. James said it appeared that Iron Man was going to be in the donut hole on the roof and that Nick Fury was yelling at him, but he couldn’t hear what he was saying.
He also reported that Sam Jackson was in the same costume as the end of the first film – a long black trench coat.
