Director Joss Whedon ‘Avengers 2’ says to expect more death in the sequel
Director Joss Whedon may have upset fans with a major death with Agent Coulson and now offers fans a warning that more may be coming with “Avengers 2.”
The filmmaker is currently at the Dublin International Film Festival for his new movie, “Much Ado About Nothing.” There, he discussed his plans for the upcoming “Avengers” sequel, and teased that bad things are on the way for Earth’s mightiest heroes.
“Death, death and death,” he said when asked what fans can expect to see from “The Avengers 2.”
Keep in mind that death is the big motivator for Thanos, the purple-skinned villain briefly glimpsed at the end of the first “Avengers.” Thanos is rumored to be a big part of both “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Avengers 2.”
Whedon also talked about what convinced him to take on the sequel, saying, “When I first considered doing Avengers 2, my first question was what can I do that’s new? Because I can’t make it bigger….but I can make it better.”
“Avengers 2” is set for May 1, 2015.
