“Avengers: Age of Ultron,” the second installment in Marvel’s insanely successful Avengers franchise, is shrouded in secrecy for the time being but, luckily, fans have Robert Downey Jr. to thank for whatever tidbit comes out in the press.

Above is the first official photo from the set of the highly anticipated film, as posted on his Twitter. It doesn’t really show anything relevant to the plot or the location, but at least it’s an official pic. Plus, it confirms that RDJ is on set, shooting his scenes as the charming and arrogant Tony Stark aka Iron Man.

“You asked for it! My first tweet from the set of Avengers: Age of Ultron with exec producer [Jeremy Latcham],” the actor writes. Both are wearing high visibility vests, and Robert is making his best “intrigued” face for the camera.

“Age of Ultron” also brings back the cast from the first “Avengers” film and adds a few more actors. Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Jeremy Renner, Scarlett Johansson, Samuel L. Jackson, Elizabeth Olsen, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, James Spader, and Paul Bettany will join RDJ on set.

Speaking of sets, shooting locations include so far London, UK, Aosta Valley in Italy, Johannesburg, South Africa, and South Korea. The film is directed by Joss Whedon and will be out in May next year.
