With all the hype over the next two Marvel Comics hero films coming out, there has been equal hype with the release of their huge hero team film. A quick breakdown for non-comic book fans, the Avengers are the Marvel Comics equivalent of the Justice League, with all of their big hitter heroes joining up to well fight evil. The roster has changed over the years, but for the movie the roster is going to be as follows. Captain America played by Chris Evans; Thor played by Chris Hemsworth; The Hulk/Bruce Banner played by Mark Ruffalo after negotiations with Edward Norton broke down; Samuel L. Jackson returning as Colonel Nick Fury; Jeremy Renner is to play Hawkeye, expert archer of the Avengers team. Scarlett Johansson will be returning as the Black Widow, and Tom Hiddleston will also be returning as Thor's evil half-brother Loki, who will be the main villain in the
Thor movie opening in May. Now villain wise, there are rumors floating around that we can expect Loki yes, but also the alien race known as the Skrulls. This shape changing, empire expanding race has been a constant menace to both the Avengers and Earth for years, so the chance to see them on the big screen would be huge. The film is slatted to open May 4 of next year, but if there are any changes I will be sure to keep you all informed.
