Joss Whedon Reveals An AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON Easter Egg You Definitely Missed
Avengers: Age of Ultron wasn't a movie packed full of Easter Eggs for comic book fans, but in the director's commentary for the sequel, Joss Whedon has revealed one very clever reveal which everyone definitely missed. What is it? Well, you can find out after the jump...
ScreenCrush have had a listen to the Avengers: Age of Ultron director's commentary, and have revealed a very interesting Easter Egg which has so far been overlooked. When Thor had a vision of Asgard - which was supposed to include Loki before Tom Hiddleston was cut - a lot of very strange and trippy imagery could be seen, including three strange masked characters standing in doorways. On closer inspection, you can see that they're wearing wolf, ram, and hart/stag masks.
As it turns out, this is actually a very clever nod to Joss Whedon's old series, Angel (which was of course a Buffy the Vampire Slayer spinoff). The site points out, "On Angel, The Wolf, The Ram and The Hart were an ancient trio of true demons who, in present day Earth, are 'senior partners' at the Los Angeles law firm Wolfram & Hart. Through this organization, they enact their evil will, representing murderers and other demonic individuals." That's a pretty cool nod, and confirms that the trio pictured below seemingly aren't some newly introduced characters who will be causing the God of Thunder any problems in Thor: Ragnaork. Did you spot this? Be honest now...
