Avengers 2
Joss Whedon Talks Quicksilver, the Scarlet Witch and Iron Man's Roles in Avengers 2
Joss Whedon is certainly keeping busy with Marvel. Having written and directed the mega-blockbuster, The Avengers, he is now launching Marvel’s first live-action TV show, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., while also preparing Marvel's The Avengers 2. I spoke to Whedon this week at ABC’s Upfront, where S.H.I.E.L.D. was being announced and asked him a couple of questions about Avengers 2 and some of the characters in it. Whedon had previously alluded to a brother/sister duo being in the film, which EW later said was indeed Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. When I brought up Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch to Whedon, he confirmed they were the characters in question, explaining, “You know, they had a rough beginning. They’re interesting to me because they sort of represent the part of the world that wouldn’t necessarily agree with The Avengers. So they’re not there to make things easier. I’m not putting any characters in the movie that will make things easier.” We also know Tony Stark/Iron Man plays another large role in the sequel, but the end of Iron Man 3 saw Tony destroying all the Iron Man suits we knew about, while seemingly stepping back from his time in the armor. When I asked Whedon if that made it a challenge putting Iron Man in Avengers 2, he remarked, “Well, I feel like in Iron Man 3, even though he said, ‘I’ve changed' -- he blew up his remote suits, but I don’t think anybody thinks he doesn’t have one anymore. The question is, if The Avengers are called, does he show up? And the answer is, ‘Yes!’” |

Honestly, they should have just made him racist.
Would have fit in with the times he originated from, and it would have been pretty interesting daring the audience to root for a guy in red-white-blue but also hating everything that's not white. "Wait, Thor... so you're saying you're entire realm is being protected by a black guy? I don't care who he is, that is wolf guarding the henhouse." |

I like Captain America's strategic mind and combat prowess but I couldn't give a shit less about Steve Rogers.

That's not interesting at all. If Superman was a Marvel character I bet he'd be able to do the same and he's a big ****ing pussy. |

Superman actually palmed the head of the hammer as Thor was swinging it at him. Which isn't terribly realistic, as Superman's vulnerability to magic would doom him against Thor, but the original point stands. |
