'''''Iron Man: Rise of Technovore''''' is a 2013 {{Anime}} film produced in collaboration by Sony Pictures Entertainment and Japanese animation studio Creator/{{Madhouse}}, who previously handled the Anime/MarvelAnime line. Based on the venerable ComicBook/IronMan comic book franchise, the film sees Tony Stark on the run from ComicBook/{{SHIELD}} after he is framed for a terrorist attack by Ezekiel Stane, the son of his deceased former nemesis Obadiah Stane. The movie features appearances from Iron Man's partner ComicBook/WarMachine, as well as ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}}, ComicBook/BlackWidow, ComicBook/NickFury, and ComicBook/ThePunisher.
The film was released as a tie-in to the live-action ''Film/IronMan3'', and as such takes some inspiration from the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse.

** Just going by the trailer, the film takes inspiration from the modern ''Iron Man'' comics, as well as the UltimateMarvel universe and the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse.
** Comic-wise, it seems to be an adaptation of the first arc written by MattFraction, ''The Five Nightmares''.
* AdaptationDyeJob: The brunet Ezekiel of the comics is blond in the film.
* AntiVillain: Ezekiel, having been raised by a verbally abusive father that frequently shoot down his accomplishments and gave him severe InferioritySuperiorityComplex and come to see adults and his values as "obsolete" to modern world.
