IGN didn't really get anything exciting out of him but they did get this juicy tidbit while talking about his character Justin Hammer saying that Hammer would be working with Mickey Rourke's Whiplash to get revenge on Tony Stark. Rockwell told IGN the following:
"He's a rival of Tony's - they are competitors in the weapons industry. I team up with Michey Rourke and we decide we want to take him down and take down the Stark legacy. He's sort of like a cousin of the Charlie's Angels character I played. The smarmy cousin. But it's Mickey - he does the fighting and the kicking ass in the film."
When asked about playing the lead in a superhero movie, he told them he'd be willing to do one if he could do it with his Moon director Duncan Jones. (I don't even know who hero he looks like).
JFYI Justin Hammer is a fictional character that has appeared in various comic book series published by Marvel Comics. As a frequent adversary of the superhero Iron Man, Justin Hammer exists in Marvel's main shared universe, known as the Marvel Universe. He first appeared in Iron Man (1st series) #120 (1978). Justin Hammer is a normal, middle aged man. He has a degree in commerce and business, and is an extremely efficient administrator with a genius-level intellect. He has access to various forms of advanced technology designed by his technicians.
Is Sam Rockwell telling the truth? Could this mean a 2-on-2 battle between Iron Man, War Machine, Justin Hammer and Whiplash? Will he get his own armor? Only time will tell.
ROCK ON!!! (and sorry for my absence but like what all parents say STUDIES FIRST)
