New look Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, he may join ‘Cap 3,’ Joss Whedon talks ‘Avengers 2,’
The new Empire magazine features the first look at Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye as director Joss Whedon gives fans an update on the film and what fans can expect.
“It’s more epic and in other ways it’s more noirish and suspect and devious and specific,” Whedon teased of Avengers: Age of Ultron. “Ultron…he’s got a touch of the apocalypse in him.”
Marvel Studios Exec Kevin Feige says he is the villain Whedon wanted, despite the Thanos tease as the end of Avengers.
“Ultron was the villain Joss wanted, from midway through production on the first film, to have serious repercussions for The Avengers. We unveiled a poster here which is nothing but Ultron after Ultron after Ultron clawing at the beginning to defeat all of our Avengers. That’s what a lot of this movie is about.”
Renner teased during an interview with Collider that an appearance in Captain America 3 is bouncing around Marvel.
“There are rumblings of Captain America 3. I don’t know what’s going to happen there. I’ve got to find the time, man (laughs). I’m trying to stay home and I can’t.”
There will be more fighting among Avengers, revealed with the Hulkbuster armor concept art.
“The Hulkbuster is from after my time [as a reader], but even I knew what a big deal it was. It makes sense because there’s no one who can really go up against Hulk, but more importantly, those guys are best friends, so what that battle is and what it means is fascinating to me,” Feige tells Empire.
Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo and Samuel L. Jackson will all be returning to reprise their roles from the first film. Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Elizabeth Olsen will play Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch with James Spader playing the titular villain.
The Avengers: Age of Ultron is set to release in theaters on May 1, 2015.
