The Avengers will be released in 3D

Liam — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 20:33:16 +0000

Disney today announced that The Avengers, directed by Joss Whedon, will also be available in 3D when it opens May 4, 2012. The movie wasn’t shot in 3D, so it’ll be going through a 3D conversion between now and May.

In related Marvel news, Disney has moved an untitled Marvel movie from June 27, 2014 to April 4, 2014. Marvel already has a movie set for May 16, 2014 so it’ll be a busy period for superheroes. With both Iron Man 3 and Thor 2 set for 2013 one of these could potentially be the Captain America sequel, or they could be something new such as Ant-Man, Runaways, or Doctor Strange which are all in development.

The German arm of Marvel has released a new trailer for Joss Whedon’s The Avengers. It’s similar to the teaser trailer we got earlier this year, but contains new footage of Black Widow and Bruce Banner meeting and a few new action shots. Those who don’t speak German probably won’t be able to understand it, but it’s still worth a watch.

Kevin Feige hopes to include Doctor Strange in ‘Phase 2′ of The Avengers

Liam — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 16:51:12 +0000

Last week saw many developments within the Marvel movie universe following the release of The Avengers teaser trailer and Patty Jenkins signing on to director Thor 2.

While at the New York Comic Con this weekend Marvel Studios’ President of Production Kevin Feige spoke about what he calls ‘Phase 2′ of Marvel’s movies, and said he hopes to see Doctor Strange involved in the future.

Cinema Blend live-blogged the panel, which included Clark Gregg, Cobie Smulders, Tom Hiddleston, Chris Evans and Mark Ruffalo, and Feige announced:

Iron Man 3 will be the first in what we’re calling phase 2 that will hopefully result in an Avengers 2.

Following the panel IGN caught up with Feige who said an announcement regarding a Doctor Strange movie would be coming “sooner rather than later” and he hopes to include him in ‘Phase 2′, so we could see Strange in The Avengers sequel. He’s a short video of the interview:

We haven’t heard much on the Doctor Strange movie for a while now, however Conan the Barbarian and Cowboys and Aliens scribes Thomas Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer were hired to write the script last year. Given the poor reception of both movies Marvel may be re-assessing the script, but in the meantime they are focusing on The Avengers, and Iron Man 3 and Thor 2 for 2013.

Here’s The Avengers trailer!

As expected, Marvel Studios has revealed the first official trailer for The Avengers, a movie they’ve been planning for quite some time.

The trailer is heavy on explosions and Iron Man/Tony Stark, but we see each member of the team in action, and get a brief glimpse at The Hulk towards the end.

Watch below:

Thoughts on the trailer? Does it meet the hype?
