The Avengers 2 Age of Ultron is one of the most committed movie projects put together by a movie company, and maybe the best thing about it is the way every situation was created within, being constantly on a developing path and aiming towards something larger and better. With each new scene, we understand more and more about the stories behind the scenario and we always remain with a mix of fulfillment and looking for more.
Because of the complex information in the comic books surrounding the Marvel universe, everything is possible, and it is a fun activity to go in depth about the effects on each character’s perspective, conversion and unexpected shifting as they advance in Marvel Studios’ second major milestone movie: The Avengers: Age of Ultron.
This super smash cinema hit is now almost here, since Phase Two movies like Thor: The Dark World, Iron Man 3, Guardians of the Galaxy and Captain America: The Winter Soldier have all discovered their specific methods into cinemas over the last several years. Obviously, these all have a large effect on the big upcoming of the MCU, and what do we know until now and how will it influence Avengers 2? Which is the newest twist with all the major figures involved? Follow it below as we crack the secret of every character.
Captain America
From all the movies we have watched in Phase Two, it is probably Captain America: The Winter Soldier the one which had by far the greatest effect on the Marvel Universe. Not only had the eponymous character the nightmare to deal with a scary event from his past, taking the form of Winter Soldier, but also S.H.I.E.L.D. became an extremely endangered organization that was conquered by HYDRA, and was consequently damaged by our characters.
The film left Cap with not only an upcoming dilemma he is unsure about, but also being incapable to believe in anyone around him. Maybe his only solution is his other super allies in the Avengers team. Things will become a lot more difficult for The First Avenger while the MCU comes on. We already know that he will battle Tony Stark in the next Captain America movie. Will the separation begin to show in Age of Ultron? Keep an eye on this increasing problem.
Iron Man
Tony Stark had some exciting changes at the ending of Iron Man 3, which places him in a top position in Avengers 2. This billionaire playboy and philanthropist was proven not only to look for a different course of his adventures without being dressed in the metal suits, but also he had removed the arc reactor from his chest – indicating that he was done with the super powered way of life.
Following the demise of S.H.I.E.L.D., however, he and Stark Industries joined into the industry of personal international security, and while it can seem like a wise decision, this also results in the development of a powerful super villain: Ultron. We also now found out that Tony will be a character of Captain America 3, and this will trigger the Civil War. First, we need to see his role at the ending of Age of Ultron.
Thor
Similar to the way in which Iron Man 3 increased Iron Man’s part in the Marvel Universe, in Thor: The Dark World placed its main character in a great position right before the ending of the film. The final scenes presented the God of Thunder refusing the throne of Asgard and coming back to Earth in order to be with his love.
This implies that when The Avengers will have to reassemble, Thor will not even have to go through the wormhole that link the worlds to join the team – he only has to swing the hammer and fly to the Avengers’ headquarter in Manhattan. The viewers knows that the God of Thunder left Asgard only to be ruled by his evil brother Loki, but he actually will not realize it until the clash in Thor 3.
Hawkeye
The Avengers is an amazing team movie in that it offers a chance to just all of its characters, however if there was a single hero who was given a brief appearance in the movie it was Hawkeye. The fans have publicly said how frustrated they were with his part in the series, being most of time a small character under Loki’s influence. Nevertheless, the writers and directors have guaranteed a bigger role for Hawkeye in the follow up movie.
It has been stated many times that he will have an extended segment in The Avengers: The Age of Ultron and interacting a lot more with the other team members. The movie will also hopefully tell us exactly where he was while the defeat of S.H.I.E.L.D. during Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
Hulk
Even if Bruce Banner/Hulk did not have his own single film in Phase Two – while being the stand apart character of The Avengers – he is returning in a big movie in 2015. The sources have stated that he will play an extended part in The Avengers: Age of Ultron, though the actual details as to what this indicates right now are unidentified. As proven in the post-credits scene of Iron Man 3, he has gotten near Tony Stark, and it has been shown that the two technology pals will be returning together and testing stuff at the begin of Age of Ultron.
Joss Whedon
He is the only non-fictional person/character who has his own paragraph on the list, but this should just show how essential he is to the success of the Marvel Universe movies and for The Avengers: Age of Ultron. In Aug 2012 it was stated that the writer/director had agreed on a three-year contract with Marvel Studios to not only persuade him to both create and film a follow up to his original successful movie, but to act as a leading person for what has been known as Phase Two. Unfortunately, this indicates that it will be the last Avengers film under his guide, as it has been declared that The Avengers: Infinity War’s production will be conducted by other directors, probably the filmmakers responsible for Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
