Lots more information on Avengers: Age of Ultron has been released mostly from Mark Ruffalo and Robert Downey Jr. and it is looking better than ever.
There is a new version of the trailer up and it’s pretty much the best trailer ever, (seriously, how amazing was that Hulkbuster suit? I can’t wait to see Iron Man and Hulk duke it out).
The extension shows the aftermath of a Stark party that has War Machine and the rest of the other Avengers all taking turns to see if they can give Thor’s hammer a lift.
The new trailer and all the latest information has me desperately wishing for a time machine so that it can be April already.
Here are seven tantalising tidbits of information we now know about Avengers: Age of Ultron.
1. Is Captain America worthy of Thor’s Mljolnir?
Stark gives it a go once normally, once with an Iron Man glove and once with glove and his mate War Machine…turns out he is not worthy (who’d have guessed!) and then Cap gets up and gives it ago and as a nervous Thor looks on, it budges just a smidgen.
Might we get to see Thor’s hammer swinging from Cap’s fist at some point in the movie? I hope so…because, seriously, how cool would that be! (probably not though!).
2. Bruce Banner and Black Widow sitting in a tree…
It is looking fairly likely that the Banner/Black Widow hook-ups will be making the leap from Tumblr fan-fiction to the big screen.
Mark Ruffalo on the set confirmed that it was an important and budding relationship. So you can read into that what you like, but I am thinking they will be getting some smooch time.
3. Banner and Hulk will be working on their relationship
Bruce Banner and Hulk have a hard time coexisting and this is the movie where they will be working some of their stuff out.
On the subject of who is more dominant Mark Ruffalo has this to say ‘you have these two identities that really wanna dominate the other, and so, it’s not getting easier to refer one or the other to be the dominant driver.’
4. Banner is Stark’s new roomie (kind of)
Banner will be getting cosy with his science buddy in an apartment of his very own in the Avengers Tower (apparently being lab mates was just not enough).
5. Elizabeth Olsen’s Scarlet Witch is a piece of work
Ruffalo likened the Scarlet Witch to Sid and Nancy (being that she is everyone’s Nancy), which translates as she is going to cause a ton of trouble for all the Avengers and with her powers being unlike anything they have previously faced, it should be really good.
She is going to make them face their worst fears.
6. The Vision is ‘dope’
The origin of Ultron differs slightly in the film to the comics (being that he is Tony Stark’s creation) and the origin of The Vision played by JARVIS voice actor Paul Bettany seems to be differing a little bit as well.
Ruffalo has referred to him as ‘my baby’ and has said that he is ‘so, dope.’ So it doesn’t give much a way, but it is a bit of a hint that maybe they have created The Vision as a way to take down Ultron themselves.
7. Tony Stark’s house parties never end well
And the one in Avengers 2 will be no exception (basically, Ultron is a party crasher).
