THE AVENGERS Update!! Video Clip Bridging THE HULK Over To The Team!
Are you ready for this thing? THE AVENGERS release is going to be massive next year and we are starting to see official marketing get underway. With this update we have new poster art and a couple of fairly amazing video clips.
With a line up of Robert Downey Jr., Samuel L. Jackson, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlet Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Stellan Skarsgard, Tom Hiddleston and Cobie Smulders we should be seeing some unforgettable action on screen!
The poster artwork is from Russia and has almost all the main characters in dynamic poses for the shot, however Fury is noticeably absent from the first one. I think many people are going to be surprised with Nick Fury as I believe that he will be getting a much more active role in THE AVENGERS as compared to the earlier movies for the others (except THE HULK where he did not have an appearance - more on that in a moment). To the uninitiated it may seem like Fury is more of a pencil pushing bureaucrat with connections than an action hero, but trust me he is going to be getting wet in this thing. If he doesn't I will be sorely disappointed.
For a reminder Nick Fury was a WWII war hero and now a modern super spy who does in fact act as a liaison between government agencies and the super heroes. But he has his secrets too! I don't want to go into them as it may spoil the surprise for many to read it before the movie opens. It is available to you to read on the net though and I fully recommend catching up through this page if you so desire. I am not saying that everything that happens in the comic universe will happen in the live action, but you can believe that Marvel will base a good portion of his character on it.
So lets get to the clips!
Remember I mentioned that S.H.I.E.L.D. was not involved in THE HULK movie? That was more or less a hole that needed to be filled and this first clip addresses that need. The Hulk needed to bridged over into The Avengers - have a watch! This was also shown at Comic-Con and is now available online. Very cool clip...
How awesome is that??
The second clip is designed to amp up everyone's excitement level through the use of all of the characters in various spoken, comic and live action scenes. And as director Joss Whedon aptly points out - this cast is his "dream team". Have a look...
Look for THE AVENGERS on May 4, 2012. Who won't be... I mean, really?
