The Avengers

It’s known that Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver team with Ultron in The Avengers 2.

Empire Magazine has a featured article with Elizabeth Olsen and asks the actress how that comes about.

Obviously there are plenty of countries in the world that hate America, for whatever historical pain they believe it has caused their own country and their own lives. That is the world we have created for Wanda and Pietro, to have been brought up in. What you’re told a lot of times growing up is that that country, those people, their way of living is the reason why we have been bombed. They [The Avengers] are the worst evil in Wanda and Pietro’s mind, not this guy who hasn’t done anything yet.

Olsen also talks more about Scarlet Witch’s powers.

The extent of our powers isn’t fully explored in Ultron. But she can manipulate objects. And she has visions, and she has the ability to share them.

In the Marvel Comics, Scarlet Witch gets romantically involved with the Vision. Will it happen in the movie?

[Laughs] I don’t know what you’re talking about…

“The Avengers: Age Of Ultron” hits May 1, 2015 directed by Joss Whedon starring Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, Samuel L. Jackson, Elizabeth Olsen as Scarlet Witch, Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver, Paul Bettany as Vision, with James Spader as Ultron.

Synopsis:

When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.

Robert Downey Jr. Explains Why Captain America 3 & Not Iron Man 4

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18898:]]

The latest issue of Empire Magazine features Robert Downey Jr. discussing Captain America: Civil War, which follows The Avengers: Age Of Ultron.

It’s learned that if Robert Downey Jr. didn’t do Captain America 3, but maybe an Iron Man 4 instead, “Civil War” would have never happened.

They said to me, ‘If we have you, we can do this, or Cap 3 has to be something else.’ It’s nice to feel needed. And at this point it’s about helping each other, too. I look at it as a competition and I go, ‘Wow, maybe if these two franchises teamed up and I can take even a lesser position, with people I like and directors I respect, maybe we can keep things bumping along.’

Robert Downey Jr. also teases the seed for Civil War is planted in The Avengers 2.

It’s natural to change your views…The main thing to me is, what sort of incident could occur, and what sort of framework could we find Tony in? The clues about where we might find him next are in Ultron. But what would it take for Tony to completely turn around everything he’s stood for? Joss brings this up all the time. It’s kind of weird that these guys would have all these throw downs all over planet Earth and yet when the movie’s over, nobody minds. What would the American government do if this were real? Wouldn’t it be interesting to see Tony doing something you wouldn’t imagine?

In the Marvel Comics Civil War storyline, Iron Man was looked at as more the villain than Captain America; however, Robert Downey Jr. offers and interesting tidbit in that it could be Steve Rogers who is the one more to change his ways than Tony Stark.

The biggest question is, for Chris and for Cap, how do we bring Cap to a place where people go, ‘Man, I never thought I would see such a vast change in Steve.’ After you see Snowpiercer, you’re like, ‘I want to see a little bit of that guy.’

“Captain America: Civil War” has a May 6, 2016 release directed by Anthony and Joe Russo starring Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Chris Evans as Captain America, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Anthony Mackie as Falcon, Sebastian Stan as Winter Soldier and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther.

Josh Whedon Doubtful For The Avengers 3 & 4 Infinity War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18897:]]

It doesn’t sound as if Joss Whedon will be back to direct The Avengers 3 or The Avengers 4, which are the Marvel Infinity War Part 1 and Part 2 movies.

Whedon, who directed The Avengers and has The Avengers: Age Of Ultron coming out in May, recently spoke with Empire Magazine where he let the news be known.

“I couldn’t imagine doing this again,” Whedon said. “It’s enormously hard, and it be, by then, a good five years since I created anything that was completely my own. So it’s very doubtful that I would take on the two-part Infinity War movie that would eat up the next four years of my life. I obviously still want to be a part of the Marvel Universe – I love these guys – but it ain’t easy. This year has been more like running three shows than any year of my life. It is bonkers.”

With Whedon seemingly already out of the picture, it’s actually been said Captain America 2 and 3 directors Anthony and Joe Russo will be directing The Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 and Part 2 as leaked e-mails as a result of a Sony hack mentioned the directors involvement.

Avengers 2 Is The Biggest Thing Marvel Has Done Says Paul Bettany

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18853:]]

Paul Bettany is going from voicing Jarvis to playing the Vision in The Avengers 2, and now says it’s the “biggest thing that Marvel have ever done.”

While speaking with the Radio Times, Bettany offered his take on being involved in the movie.

“I’ve never been on a bigger set on my entire life than [Age of Ultron],” Bettany said. “One [part] seemed to be the corner of a town, with helicopter cameras, and drone cameras flying about. I just haven’t seen anything that big, so it was like being a kid on a film set again.”

Paul Bettany recounts being a part of the big Hall H announcement for Avengers 2 at this past Summer’s Comic-Con, and even offers that Samuel L. Jackson was impressed.

“This is the biggest thing Marvel have ever done,” Bettany continued. “It was enormous. I remember, we were at Comic-con, and they showed a portion of the footage, and I was just gobsmacked. And I looked down the row and every one of the Avengers was the same. Including Samuel Jackson – and his whole modus operandi is ‘I’ve seen everything before, I’m the most chilled out, relaxed man and I’ve seen everything…’and he was as knocked out as anyone. It’s huge.”

More Evidence For Grey Hulk In Avengers 2

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18851:]]

A couple of days ago saw a grey-colored Hulk toy surface for The Avengers 2 leading to speculation Mr. Fixit could appear in the movie.

Of course, the grey color could just be a variant – to sell more merchandise – but do we already have evidence of the Grey Hulk in The Avengers 2?

Look no futher than The Avengers 2 trailer as we see what appears to be a grey-colored Hulk fighting Hulkbuster Iron Man.

Internet speculation already has it that Mr. Fixit comes out as a result of Scarlet Witch casting a hex on the Hulk.

We do see Hulk’s eyes appear to be red. Does grey follow? With Tony Stark matching the Hulk’s strength with the Hulkbuster armor, does Grey Hulk outwit (as he is known to do in the comics) Iron Man to defeat him? Or is it just a coloring oddity?

Anthony Mackie Wants A New Falcon Costume & Every Marvel Movie

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18840:]]

Anthony Mackie has been making the rounds as of late promoting his latest movie which also stars Kevin Costner, Black or White.

Of course Mackie has been asked about playing Falcon, which he confirmed will be in Captain America 3 and described it as “Avengers 3.8.”

Now the latest with Anthony Mackie is that the actor wants a new costume for Falcon and also wants to appear in every Marvel movie.

“I’ve been emailing with people over at Marvel,” Mackie said, reports THR. “I’ve been putting it out there in the [ether] that I’m going to have a new and improved costume and come out all flashy in spandex. So I’m hoping that I get a new and improved costume. That’s my whole thing. I’ve just been saying it, hoping that they’ll read it and say, ‘All right, we have to give Anthony a new costume.’”

Mackie continues with mention he hopes to appear in The Avengers 2 and jokes about every other Marvel movie.

“I hope. At this point, I have not. I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope,” Mackie said. “They’re doing reshoots and that’s why I’m letting them know I’m available. So whatever weekend they want me there, I’ll fly myself out and shoot whatever scene they want me in. Even if it’s like, ‘Oh man! It’s Iron Man and Hulk.’

“I heard today in one of the interviews that someone thought I was in Ant-Man,” Mackie said. “I hope so! I hope I’m in Ant-Man. I hope I’m in Hulk 3, I hope I’m in Thor 3 and Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Me and Groot can boogie!”

The Avengers: Age Of Ultron opens May 1st; Captain America: Civil War opens May 6, 2016.

Tons Of Star Wars, Avengers 2, Batman Vs. Superman, Fantastic Four and more SCOOPS

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18834:]]

We get some insider information from Twitter user GBRIELGRY about Star Wars, The Avengers 2, Batman Vs. Superman, Fantastic Four and more.

The Twitter user previously posted leaked images from the Terminator: Genisys trailer that Paramount filed copyright notices for and had taken down.

Obviously we don’t know if all the following info is legit, but the Terminator pics definitely were.

I suppose I should throw out a SPOILER warning just in case as the possible Avengers 2 post-credit scene is stated below.

Details also include when the Batman Vs. Superman trailer might hit and thoughts on the Fantastic Four trailer, Crimson Peak trailer and Terminator: Genisys.

Captain America: Civil War Is Avengers 3.8 Says Anthony Mackie

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18830:]]

Last week saw Anthony Mackie confirm Falcon for Captain America: Civil War and state filming starts in April.

Recently also saw confirmation that Scarlett Johansson and Sebastian Stan will reprise as Black Widow and the Winter Soldier, respectively, on top of Chris Evans as Captain America, Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther.

Now the latest is that while speaking in a recent interview, Mackie says Captain America: Civil War is “Avengers 3.8.”

“Let’s just say it’s a wing-ding-doozy of a time,” Mackie offered reports Collider. “The great thing about it is, after seeing The Avengers I joked and said Captain America 2 was Avengers 1.5. Now with Avengers 2 coming out… Captain America 3 is so far beyond Avengers 2.5 and onto the realm of Avengers 3.8. It’s by far one of the most stupendous rides Marvel has put together.”

While Marvel has yet to officially announce the plot, Captain America: Civil War will find Captain America at odds with Iron Man for some reason, with heroes taking sides and facing off.

“Captain America: Civil War” opens May 6, 2016 directed by Joe and Anthony Russo.

Grey Hulk A Possibility In The Avengers 2?

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18823:]]

I would be surprised to see Mr. Fixit in The Avengers 2, but I would love it, and anything from Peter David’s run would make a great standalone Hulk movie.

If what a new toy suggests, it’s possible the Grey Hulk may appear in The Avengers: Age Of Ultron.

A promotion for the Funko POP! Vinyl Avengers 2 toys features the Grey Hulk, which of course, could just be for the merchandising line, but imagine if at the end of Avengers 2, Banner/Hulk are thought to be dead, and we end up seeing the Grey Hulk in Las Vegas. I know I may be dreaming, but it would be awesome.

The Grey Hulk was actually the first personality/version of the Hulk, but the coloring was changed to green with a different personality. The Grey Hulk is weaker than the Savage Green Hulk, but smarter and more cunning. Marvel Comics writer Peter David brought the Grey Hulk back with Incredible Hulk #324.

Marvel Surprised At Spider-Man Rumors

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18787:]]

This past week saw new Spider-Man rumors hit the net stating that Spider-Man in The Avengers: Infinity War – Part One was a done deal.

Following that, Sony quickly responded stating it wasn’t true.

Now some of the Hollywood trade reporters have gathered together on a podcast with some updated news.

Marc Graser of Variety, who broke the Robert Downey Jr. in Captain America 3 story, stated he talked with Marvel about the Infinity War rumor.

According to Graser, Marvel was surprised by the rumor and was “wondering why it popped up again” and “had no clue why.”

Graser also speculated about Spider-Man returning to Marvel where Graser said it will involve a lot of money.

Graser said it’s up to producer and the former head of Marvel Studios, Avi Arad, for Spider-Man to be featured in Disney movies as Arad controls Spider-Man at Sony.

Graser also pointed out that Spider-Man is really the only thing Arad has going on right now.

Another point was made that Disney is already making a lot of money from Spider-Man as they own the merchandising rights to the Spider-Man movies, so it’s not like they really need Spider-Man in their films.

“They would love Spider-Man to be in one of their movies, and it would just boost sales,” Graser said. “But they don’t need it.”

While Graser seemed to be insinuating it’s a long shot that Spider-Man would be back at Marvel, he did state that he wouldn’t be surprised if Marvel is having screenwriters working on scripts with Spider-Man in them just to have things ready if a deal does go through.

Regarding Spider-Man costing a lot of money, Disney did pay billions for Marvel and Star Wars, so it’s not like they haven’t dished it out before.

Doesn’t show much beside stock footage and music from The Avengers (2012) with the title Avengers: Infinity War inside a bunch of spider-webs. Take the video how ever you like. Was filmed from my iPhone.

Obviously the video could be fake, and recently there has been the fake Batman Vs. Superman “Enter The Knight” trailer image in addition to the leaked image from the Fantastic Four movie.

The video below teases Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo and Chris Hemsworth, with the Avengers Infinity War logo shown wrapped in webbing.

Sony has finally commented on the rumors of Spider-Man returning to Marvel.

Earlier, a report surfaced online, which was filled with wild speculation and guess work, stated Spider-Man would be featured in The Avengers: Infinity War – Part 1.

Now Sony is stating it’s an “old rumor” with “no validity whatsoever.”

Following the rumor that was posted earlier today, CBR reached out to Sony who told them the rumor isn’t true.

“A Sony Pictures representative dismissed the report, calling it an ‘old rumor’ with ‘no validity whatsoever,'” CBR reports.

They also state they reached out to Marvel Studios, but haven’t received a reply.

Spider-Man returning to Marvel surfaced with leaked e-mails as a result of a hack attack by North Korea.

The e-mails read that Sony and Marvel had been in talks for Spider-Man to return, but nothing has been confirmed.

Of course, it’s still possible that Spider-Man could return to Marvel, but this is the first time Sony has publicly dismissed the notion.

Furthermore, some leaked e-mails did reveal that Sony executives wanted to keep Spider-Man and not work with Marvel.
