Iron Man: Legend is an animated superhero movie released on December 9, 2020. It's part of the True Heroes Universe and the TBA installment of the franchise. It stars the talents of Michael T. Weiss, John Cygan, Tara Platt, Hiroyuki Sanada, and Antony Del Rio.

Synopsis
As protector to one of America's most influential and volatile men, the Legendary Iron Man has to face his employer's violent tendencies while also dealing with another one of the world's strongest men whose plot threatens the world's safety.

Overview
The film's main inspiration comes from earlier depictions of Iron Man where the superhero's identity was concealed as the wearer's own bodyguard. From that idea mixed with the True Heroes' core concept of crossover comes this movie titled Iron Man: Legend. As the first taste of True Heroes' unexpected nature, the man wearing the Iron Man Armor is sincerely not Tony Stark. Tony Stark is present in the movie but he acts as the employer of the hero himself.

Due to the change in the Iron Man's identity, Tony is presented as the reckless playboy he used to be in the comics. He's a far more explosive and abusive person with a penchant for disregarding the lives of others. In fact he seldom allows the company to sell weapons to terrorist organizations around the world under his nose.

Iron Man however, has a personality mirroring Stark's more mainstream and heroic incarnation. In summary, Iron Man Stark's light reflection. He's a humble man who despite his qualms about Stark's behaviour is still loyal to Stark Industries. He is a selfless man who cares for the lives of many including his family. He's not the most powerful man around but he's truly a figure to behold with. His true identity is not revealed to until the end of the movie, when viewers will realize why the subtitle "Legend" is chosen to represent Iron Man himself.

Cast

 * Michael T. Weiss as Iron Man
 * The titular protagonist of the movie, Iron Man is a corporate adventurer working for Stark Industries to protect their interests. His identity is kept closely within the movie's production and only the writer knows who he is. The only hint to his identity is that he used to be a friend of Tony Stark, but not from the Marvel Universe. The movie will focus on his ideological clashes with Stark while simultaneously contending with a man threatening to take over Stark Industries for malicious intents.
 * John Cygan as Anthony "Tony" Stark
 * Genius, billionaire, playboy. Those are the things Stark are in this universe and he's no philanthropist. He is portrayed similar to his pre-Iron Man days in the comics when he's an uncaring man with only pleasure being his life goal. He hired Iron Man as his bodyguard and his company's asset of protection as he grows weary of the world's advancement. He is an alcoholic fool, but he still knows a friend when he sees one.
 * Tara Platt as Suzanne "Suzi" Endo
 * Suzi Endo is a genius scientist who once worked at STAR Labs. She is Iron Man's wife and the bearer of the hero's baby son. Suzi acts as the Iron Man's anchor to reality as he constantly faces the abuses of his boss and his prized possession. She hailed from a rival company to Stark Industries but she has always loved Iron Man as the love of her life. Tony Stark however, is an entirely different story.
 * Hiroyuki Sanada as Toyo Harada
 * A Japanese businessman who owns the multinational Harbinger Foundation. He was a friend of Tony Stark's father but a ruthless rival of Tony Stark. Though not entirely evil, Toyo's motivations for founding the Harbinger Foundation are still shady and his calm demeanor hides a mysterious visage. Tony knows that he's a rival but his intoxication always makes him think he's his best friend.
 * Antony Del Rio as James "Jimmy" Ruiz / Prototype
 * Jimmy Ruiz is a young man of Hispanic heritage and an anti-corporate activist. However, he once got himself an internship at LexCorp and as a result has quite a good amount of aptitude with machines. Using a powered armor of his own designed to mock the idea of Iron Man, Jimmy is a crusader who seeks to weed out corrupt corporations such as Stark's. He may sound cliche but with Stark being a tyrant in this world, he certainly has his place.
