He's not here. Try the jet stream. Speaking of which, go fish!
~ Eric Savin's most famous quote.

Eric Savin is the secondary antagonist of Iron Man 3.

In his characterisation, he is an ex-colonel of the US army who became exposed to Extremis and ultimately served as the right-hand man of his employer Aldrich Killian.

He was portrayed by James Badge Dale. who also played the titular character in The Empty Man.

Biography[]

Eric Savin accompanied Aldrich Killian to Stark Industries and waited in the foyer while Killian spoke with Pepper Potts, CEO. Happy Hogan thought he looked suspicious so followed him as he delivered a batch of Extremis to Jack Taggart in front of the TCL Chinese Theatre.

Savin piloted an assault helicopter and led the strike team against Stark at his Mansion under the orders of The Mandarin who was responding to Stark's televised threat. Savin managed to destroy Stark's home.

Savin then accompanied Ellen Brandt to a small town in Tennessee to retrieve Chad Davis and Jack Taggart's A.I.M. file from Davis' mother. But are surprisingly thwarted by Tony Stark who managed to avoid and kill Brandt. Savin used his Extremis powers to bring down a water-tower structure on top of Stark pinning him down while taking Harley Keener hostage and using him as leverage to force Stark to give him the file he stole. Harley used a flare weapon previously issued to him by Stark to protect himself from bullying to escape temporarily blinding Savin and giving Stark the time to fire a repulsor ray blast directly at him. Sometime after Stark escaped, Savin regenerated thanks to the Extremis healing factor.

Savin re-encountered Stark as he infiltrated the Mandarin's manor and knocked him unconscious from behind while he's talking with Trevor Slattery.

Savin observed as Killian used his Extremis abilities to cause James Rhodes to jettison from his armor suit.

Savin later took the Iron Patriot suit and hijacked Air Force One plane that had President Ellis on board. He killed a dozen security agents on the plane but was confronted by Iron Man. After a fight, he was killed by Iron Man's unibeam blast.

Character Traits[]

Eric Savin is Killian’s main henchman and the muscle behind the Extremis group. He was intimidating both in size and strength and was a stone-cold killer, willing to commit any act that Killian demands, no matter how heinous. His seeming immortality made him almost impossible to intimidate, interrogate, harm, torture, manipulate or persuade.

He was also able to instantaneously heal from Iron Man's repeller blast to his head. These healing abilities makes him seemingly immortal.
  • Exothermic Reaction: Extremis allowed Savin to be able to consciously raise the temperature of parts of his body.
