At the panel for The Incredible Hulk at the New York Comic Con on Saturday, Universal premiered the new trailer for the film, which included footage of Robert Downey, Jr.‘s Tony Stark cameo.
Last month, MTV spoke with Downey, who confirmed to them that his Iron Man character Tony Stark would be making a cameo in the upcoming The Incredible Hulk movie.
In the scene, which appears in the trailer after the credits, Stark enters a bar and approaches William Hurt‘s General Thaddeus Ross, an adversary of Dr. Bruce Banner, aka the Hulk. They exchange a few words, something about “stale beer” and how Stark always has the nicest suits (the audience at the Con was screaming so loudly it was hard to hear what was said). Here’s how the rest of the scene plays out:
Stark: “I hear you have an unusual problem.”
Ross: “You should talk.”
Stark: “You should listen.”
Cue more intense screams from the audience.
In the MTV interview, Downey had said that when he approaches Ross, he finds him “in despair,” and Ross certainly does look that way in the footage. Downey also said that Stark and Ross “may be considering going into some sort of limited partnership together.”
The new Incredible Hulk trailer will run in theaters before showings of Iron Man starting May 2, 2008.
Spoilers be damned… that’s pretty freaking cool.

Iron Man was practically flawless as a super hero flick; it drops pretty obvious hints that would indicate a sequel as well… i’m thinking the next one should be equally great
