According to Don Cheadle, suiting up in Iron Man 3 was not cool at all. "It's very hot and pretty uncomfortable," he said with a smile, then admitted that he enjoyed his experience outside of the armor much more. After claiming that Downey Jr.'s Iron Man suit was much lighter and more comfortable, Cheadle quipped, "I think it's racism."
Asked about the possibility of Iron Man 4, Cheadle said, "I think if people like you make enough noise about it there’ll be an Iron Man 4. I mean, hopefully. I think there's more to mine.
"It’s going to be determined definitely by Marvel, and if they think there’s another aspect of the story that needs to be told that wasn't covered in the trilogy, if there’s another way in that’s interesting. Because you don't want to just keep going to the well and have it be something where you're ending it and should have ended it a long time ago. I'd rather leave them wanting more than go too far. But we'll see. You know, these Marvel universes are vast, and characters can show up in each other's movies. And Avengers is whole other series of possibilities. Who knows?"
Cheadle further said that improvisation was encouraged and occurred throughout the process, but that they narrowed things down and came to an understanding of the scene before they were actually shooting on set.
Cheadle also took the chance to praise Ben Kingsley, saying that "he really classed up the piece for us," and then going on to say that he enjoyed getting to meet one of his own heroes.
