A new photo from the upcoming “Iron Man 3” has been released and, just in case you missed the point with the first trailer and its extended Japanese version, Tony Stark is in real trouble.

Click on the image above to see it in full.

It shows a badly beaten and bruised, and perhaps defeated Tony Stark in his Iron Man suit, looking as if he’s in a desperate need of a hug.

“Walt Disney Studios and Marvel Studios have shared with us a new hi-res stills from Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 3, in theaters on May 3, 2013. The new image […] features a very battered (both physically and emotionally) Tony Stark in his Iron Man suit,” StichKingdom writes.

“Iron Man 3” will see the self-fashioned superhero stand up to fight for what he holds dearest in his life.

It stars Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Ben Kingsley, Guy Pearce, Don Cheadle, Rebecca Hall, James Badge Dale and Jon Favreau.
