After the super success of Iron Man, Iron Man 2 and The Avengers, all eyes are on the 2013 summer release Iron Man 3. But the shooting of the movie has hit a road block.

The shooting was supposed to start on August 17 at Port of Wilmington in North Carolina. But it was reported that two days earlier on August 15, Robert Downey Jr., hurt his ankle while doing a stunt! Thus meaning that the shooting started before the scheduled date. Marvel Studios in its press release confirmed the same that the injury occurred during a stunt scene. But nothing much was mentioned about how serious the injury was. Since the schedule was to have a lot of stunts scenes and action sequences, the shooting had been put on hold.
