Fictional character biography


Dr. Aldrich "Al" Killian was a brilliant scientist working for the FuturePharm Corporation in Austin, Texas alongside Dr. Maya Hansen. Together they developed Extremis, a Techno-Organic Virus that completely rewrites the body's genetic code, making entire organs more efficient and giving the body healing abilities in an attempt to create a new super soldier with super human strength, speed, endurance, reflexes and the ability to project electricity and breathe fire. He stole a sample and sold it to a terrorist group (based in a slaughterhouse in Bastrop, Texas) with Mallen as a willing test subject. Days later at FuturePharm Corporation offices, Dr. Killian committed suicide at his computer; his suicide note informed Hansen that he had stolen the Extremis serum for an undisclosed purpose.

Aldrich Killian, with elements of Simon Krieger and Mallen, appears in Iron Man 3, portrayed by Guy Pearce. Initially a sickly individual, this version attempted to pitch his think tank, A.I.M., to Tony Stark years prior, but was snubbed by him and swore revenge. Over the years, Killian and co-conspirator Maya Hansen used A.I.M. to conduct research on and develop the Extremis virus, which imparts varying levels of strength, resiliency, and pyrokinesis to human subjects, though some died in fiery explosions. Despite this, Killian funded the Ten Rings by masquerading as their leader the Mandarin without the true leader Wenwu's knowledge, uses British actor Trevor Slattery to serve as a figurehead, and mounts terrorist attacks as part of his revenge. Ultimately, Killian and his soldiers are defeated and killed by Stark, James Rhodes, and Pepper Potts.
