Before reading any further, there is a
possible spoiler so be warned!
So, a trusted source close to the production of Marvel Studios' highly anticipated comic book adaptation,
The Avengers, was kind enough to share a new, but very brief scene that is being worked on right now in pre-production (storyboards and previz).
One of the things the source told me, is that Thor will be in a number of battle sequences in the movie. One of the scenes that they are also working on is a huge fight scene of The Incredible Hulk and Thor going at it downtown in some city. Another scene (and this is the spoiler part) is where
Thor fights Tony Stark (Iron Man) so he could get Loki back from S.H.I.E.L.D. possession. In a way this definitely confirms Tom Hiddleston being a part of the film. I've been hearing that they were working on Loki being a villain from the start. And in the headline I wrote "one of the villains" because I know there were rumors about Skrulls being in it, and that's still probably happening since they are going with the whole cosmic approach. I should mention that all this is previz stuff, and things get cut out every time. Keep that in mind.
Also, I asked about
Captain America: The First Avenger. Nothing big here, but he told me that the film is looking great.
"Well, the footage is really nice, easily the best looking thing Marvel has shot. It's got a gorgouse vintage look to it, it looks like a mix between Raiders Of The Lost Ark and Rocketeer which would make total sense. Johnston seems to be keeping to his heavy use of practical effect which is great. From the short sequences I have seen, it looks like Cap gets pretty physical and doesn't hold back."
UPDATE: Hey guys...As you can see I haven't posted anything that says this is an April Fools article. And by the comments, I just wanted to tell you that it's not fake. Source who told me this was also the one who gave me
Minor Updates On THOR And X-Men: First Class back in January before the trailer came out. Everything the source told me, was true so far. So yeah, I just wanted to let you know this.
