How Did Nobody Learn The Mandarin Was Trevor Slattery In Iron Man 3?
This could possibly seem like a stupid question and I’m really not sure but hear me out: We know from Wonder Man (spoilers I guess) that Trevor had a moderately recognizable “celebrity” status due to his film career.
I only say this because I old woman on the plane and Simon both recognized him from roles besides the Mandarin. I think they also know him from the mandarin so it helped to recognize him but still. (I’m like 90% the old woman recognized him from something else I forgot it’d been a week since I’ve seen that ep.)
In Iron man 3, Trevor says he got plastic surgery from Killian’s men to disguise himself to the public but we learn in wonderman flashbacks (and apparently All Hail The King) he looked practically identical to how he looked as the Mandarin. He likely had small touch ups in this surgery but I bring this up because why would they give him plastic surgery if he’s still recognizable for his other roles, he was an actor after all. (Unless he was too drunk or high to realize he didn’t actually get surgery which was a theory I saw floating around.)
I get the government were probably in a moment of panic during the Mandarin’s presence in iron man 3 but surely they could’ve used technology to trace his face and surely they would’ve somehow got a connection to Trevor Slattery? I doubt some government official would’ve recognized him but Trevor had a decent career. I forgot how long the timeline of events for iron man 3 was but I’d assume they’d have what, a week to figure out who he is? I haven’t seen that film in years but doesn’t Trevor just call himself the Mandarin and say he’s not from America, but that’s enough to get everyone to believe that and not look into him further? I know the Ten Rings were very elusive but idk seems kinda off to me, then again idk how well they could’ve tracked his face with 2013 technology, plus Trev was doing a voice.
I’m probably missing something obvious but I was just sitting there tired and the thought popped into my head so I had to ask. I’d just google it but there’s so much to google like “how long iron man 3’s events lasted for” and “did Trevor say he wasn’t from America” etc etc. (I only know that last one is true cause of wonderman. Anyway thanks for reading my essay I had no intention on writing, only meant for like a paragraph😅
Also, since the world now knows Trevor Slattery was the fake mandarin, his actions in wonderman as a fall guy are probably obvious to the whole world, especially those 2 friends watching him on their phones, knowing he was an actor. Could be a nice set up for a season 2 with Trevor trying to prove his innocence and Simon having to do dirty work for damage control.
