Speculation has been circling that Stark will, as usual, be reinventing and improving his armor, when things go terribly wrong, resulting in Ultron, which is meant to be a back up, becoming the villain to take down in the Avengers 2.
At Comic-Con over the weekend the naming ceremony was the climax of an hour long tease by those behind the film.
The event began with Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige presenting footage from November's scheduled release Thor: The Dark World.
Later, the lights went out and Tom Hiddleston made a dramatic entrance, fully in character as Loki. For the next few minutes he entertained the crowd, spewing out various insults to the human race, giving the fans exactly what they wanted from their original villain from the first Avengers movie.
The entire event worked perfectly to build up anticipation for the upcoming Avengers 2 movie, and fans will no doubt be talking about the sequel constantly all the way through to when the film eventually hits theaters.
Here is a video clip of Tom Hiddleston as Loki at Comic Con 2013:
