The Hulk's Role In The Avengers 2 Sets Other Events In Motion?

Actor Mark Ruffalo may have recently shot down the notion of "Planet Hulk" movie talk, but HitFix guru Drew McWeeny has posted a report talking about Bruce Banner/Hulk's role in writer/director Joss Whedon's "The Avengers: Age of Ultron" and where Marvel could potentially take the character following the events of superhero team sequel.


POSSIBLE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD

"Bruce Banner continues to play a key role in things in "Avengers: Age of Ultron", and when the final war with Ultron spills onto the battlefield and out of the virtual realm, he has a major part to play. Unfortunately, that ends with him onboard a Quinjet on his way off the planet, with no way to immediately turn things around. He's going to have to ride out the trip. It's pre-programmed and he can't stop it."

The site then goes on to posit that the Quinjet's course will take it to wherever the "Guardians of the Galaxy" are at the the end of James Gunn's film adaptation--We may see the green meanie in the potential sequel to Guardians of the Galaxy

McWeeny adds: "I suspect we'll see some sequences that very much feel like they're part of Planet Hulk story, but the larger story will be about the Guardians finding a way to get Banner home, only to end up going with them."

The result could be that the 'Guardians' could show up in "Avengers 3" since any 'Guardians' sequel may in turn play a part in getting Thanos to serve as the villain of "Avengers 3".

Avengers 2 DOES NOT follow the Age of Ultron comics storyline--in which the big bad Ultron was created by Hank Pym who becomes Ant-Man. James Spader will both voice Ultron, and he'll have to do some kind of motion-capture as well--This news puts to rest the most popular theory suggesting that Tony Stark's (Robert Downey Jr,) robot butler J.A.R.V.I.S. (voiced by Paul Bettany) operating system from the Iron Man Films would turn into the villain.

Marvel vets RDJ, Chris Evans Chris Hemsworth Scarlett Johansson Samuel L. Jackson Jeremy Renner Ruffalo, Clark Gregg and Cobie Smulders are all expected back Two time Iron Man co-star Don Cheadle is involved this time out according to USA Today. Bettany will appear on screen as The Vision an android created by Ultron as a weapon to be used against the Avengers. Vision can fire beams of radiation and turn invisible--the character ultimately turned the tables on Ultron and became an Avengers member himself.

TV's Hulk Lou Ferrigno has confirmed that he'll return to do the voice of the big guy in the sequel. Ferrigno has said four words as the character so far - "Hulk Smash" in 2008's "The Incredible Hulk" and "Puny God" in "The Avengers".

Thomas Kretschmann has landed the role of 2nd bad guy Baron von Strucker. In the comics, the seemingly immortal Strucker is one of the leaders of Hydra, and an enemy of both S.H.I.E.L.D and The Avengers He seemingly beat out rumored candidates Marton Csokas and Dougray Scott who were being considered for the BvS role. The character will have Wanda Maximoff, a.k.a. Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and her twin brother Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) apparently working for him in the sequel (American Horror Story favorite Evan Peters plays a different incarnation of the speedy superhero in Bryan Singer's "X-Men: Days of Future Past"--in a very cool sequence in the film). Korean actress  will play a bad gal role.

Radar Online has an unidentified source that claims that RDJ is campaigning to get his pals Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster a role in the movie.

Some non principal filming took place in South Africa Production on the 'Avengers' sequel continues to meet a release date of May 1, 2015.

Here is 15-minute video of some early filming on "Ultron":
