There is a new teaser clip online now for the "Iron Man 3" Super Bowl spot, which will air this Sunday (February 3) during the big game between the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers.


Yes, this is basically a trailer for a trailer, but a lot gets packed into that 14 seconds, including brief glimpses of super-villain The Mandarin (Ben Kingsley), Jim "Rhodey" Rhodes (Don Cheadle) in his newly repainted War Machine armor (now called Iron Patriot) and several shots of Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) and Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) looking like they're not having a good day.

A new poster has debuted as well, showing a helmet-less Stark and his battered armor in free fall high above a city, and again not looking like things are going well.

Meanwhile, a photo of a new "Iron Man 3" toy figure from the company Funko, described as the character's "Deep Space Suit," quickly got the wheels in motion at Latino Review, whose sources confirmed that the toy may have accidentally revealed the ending to the movie -- or at least the tag that will connect it to another upcoming Marvel film.

Can you guess what it is? It's a spoiler, so we'll leave you here with the new teaser clip and put the answer below. Scroll down if you dare!


Okay, here we go, one last spoiler alert:

According to those sources, Tony Stark does fly out into deep space at the end of 'Iron Man 3,' where he meets up with the Guardians of the Galaxy, whose movie will be coming out in August 2014.

Let's see if that holds true when "Iron Man 3" opens on May 3!
