Even as Shane Black (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang) takes over directing duties from Favreau he is still helping with story:
"I guess in comics you can say that it's an individual storyline and you can break it off into a group. But in movies, it's hard not to take into consideration what just happened. What are you gonna say? 'They all just lost their cell phones and you can't get help?' So it's going to take a lot of ingenuity to make it make sense to a mainstream film audience as well as a comic book audience."
Downey meanwhile talked up "The Avengers" and sorta but not really addresses I concern that I have always had about conic book films with a lot of characters to service....
"I just thought, 'How are you gonna put all of us clowns together? He's wearing a suit, he's all jacked up, he's so and so and poor Mark Ruffalo, he's gonna out do us'. And we're about six weeks in and I have to say [director] Joss Whedon is nailing it," Downey Jr said. "He's so smart and so good. And it's gonna be great. I can't believe I just said it, I never could've believed this but it's gonna be great."
Meantime a nifty promo poster fot the May 4th 2012 team up pic is here!
Featured in the image is the Hulk as will be played by Ruffalo, Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Captain America (Chris Evans) and Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.)
