Iron Man 3 will be co-produced by a Chinese film company and partly filmed in China, the Walt Disney Co announced on Monday, as Hollywood seeks to tap into the Asian nation’s fast-growing movie market.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Filming for the third movie in the billion-dollar franchise from Marvel Studios – a Disney subsidiary – is due to start in May in the United States. The cast includes Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow and Don Cheadle.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The film will be co-produced by DMG Entertainment, a Chinese film company that will make an undisclosed investment in the movie<\/strong>, Walt Disney, Marvel and the Chinese firm announced on Monday.<\/p>\n

Parts of the film will also be shot in China beginning later this summer, they added.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dan Mintz, head of DMG Entertainment, added that the three-way collaboration marked a “milestone” in global entertainment.<\/p>\n

“This signifies the first multi-billion dollar franchise to be produced between Hollywood and China,” he said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

China has become the holy grail for Hollywood film studios eager to cash in on a potentially hugely lucrative market that boasts the fastest growing movie box office in the world.<\/p>\n

Last year, cinemas in China raked in more than 13 billion yuan ($2 billion), a nearly 30 percent increase from 2010, the state Xinhua news agency has reported.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But foreign studios and film distributors face a tough time in the Asian powerhouse, where authorities limit to 20 the number of foreign movies allowed to be screened in China every year.<\/p>\n
