One of the main characters is a manipulative mentor figure who tries to redirect a character away from making life changes (that the manipulator disapproves of) after a trauma by bringing up their mental health/state in a derogatory way.

There’s scenes of alcohol use that may be hinting at addiction, including a scene early on that has Tony Stark drinking hard liquor mid-day on a work trip.
Alcoholism is a famous and integral part of the comic book version of the character, but whether it’s present in Iron Man or the broader marvel film universe is largely up to interpretation.

No but an older man is shown many times getting way into Tony’s personal space, often in creepy ways (buttoning up his shirt), and near the end uses a gang rape paralyzing machine to physically assault the main character and hurt him in a way that I won’t spoil but could be considered borderline intimate and definitely creepy

Tony seemingly deadnames the woman Rhodes allegedly spent a night with, although it’s more likely he’s just giving a theoretical deadname. Still a very transphobic scene. 😬

Main character dramatically breaks a mirror that shows their reflection; there is no injury or traditional self-harm shown but the emotional beats (self-loathing) combined with the destruction of property might ring close for some viewers.

During Tony's escape there are lots of rapid gunshots that create a strobe effect at the beginning of the movie. During the last battle he fires flares and there are flashing lights off an on until he defeats the villain.

Theirs a scene where the main character tony stark comes to a air force hanger to meet with his friend roddy. Roddy is giving a speech to his soldiers and tony comes in to make a joke where roddy slept with a “man”who dressed as a women and it was a mistake. Roddy then denies it telling him to stop because they’ll believe it. As a trans woman this was very upsetting and offensive and it hurt to see what use to be my favorite super hero when I was a child say that. The scene isn’t that long and can be easily skipped

The villains (aside from Stane) are the “Middle Eastern/Muslim terrorist” stereotype. Most women aside from Pepper Potts are either sexualized and/or unimportant both to the lead and the narrative.
