Shane Black movies are a Christmas tradition. Of the writer's filmography, four screenplays have been set during the holiday season (Lethal Weapon, The Last Boy Scout, The Long Kiss Goodnight, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang) and the amazing this is that Iron Man 3 will fall into that tradition as well. This year at San Diego Comic Con the footage began with Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) telling his robot assistants to cue up something seasonal and them responding with Run DMC's "Christmas in Hollis," and in the trailers that have been released we've seen Stark dragging his armor through the snow. Well, now the superhero is her to give you some seasonal greetings.

It looks like he was right in the middle of dragging his suit around in the slush, but Tony Stark has sent out a cool Happy Holidays card via the Iron Man Twitter page. Check it out below!

Co-written and directed by Black, Iron Man 3 finds the titanium alloy plated hero facing off against his greatest foe yet: the leader of the terrorist organization The Ten Rings, The Mandarin (Sir Ben Kingsley). When everything in Tony's life his destroyed, he must use all of his knowledge and scientific inspiration to find a way to put everything back together and get justice. Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, and Jon Favreau will reprise their roles from previous entries while other new cast members include Rebecca Hall, Guy Pearce, William Sadler, James Badge Dale and Ashley Hamilton. I'm still hoping for a new Iron Man 3 trailer as a Christmas present, but in the meantime you can head over to our Blend Film Database to see everything that has been released so far.
