I missed The Avengers teaser that ran during the Superb Owl. Turns out that I didn’t need to see it, since the Avengers Facebook page posted an extended version.

I can’t tell you what is extra about this one, but I can tell you that we see The Hulk and we have confirmation of the army that it will take to bring the team together.

The Avenegers, directed by Joss Whedon, will release on May 4. Starring Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Jeremy Renner, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Clark Gregg, Samuel L. Jackson, Cobie Smulders, Tom Hiddleston, and Stellan Skarsgård.

Marvel has just released the first trailer for the The Avengers, which comes out next year on 5/4/2012. The Avengers is a team up of characters from recent Marvel movies including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and Hulk.

The Avengers is directed by Joss Whedon and stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Jeremy Renner, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Clark Gregg, Samuel L. Jackson, Cobie Smulders, Tom Hiddleston, and Stellan Skarsgård.

You can watch the trailer here.

Update: CBR has posted a flash version of the trailer.

Warning: This footage contains major spoilers for Captain America.
Joss Whedon’s big screen team up The Avengers rivals the sequel to The Dark Knight for geek buzz. And since The Dark Knight Rises has a teaser, it fits that we get one for The Avengers.

Fans who saw Captain America were treated to a preview of things to come, as is now Marvel tradition. However as this teaser build off the events of Thor and very greatly off the events of Captain America, I’m embedding the footage after the cut to avoid spoiling anyone. Click at your own risk. The clip actually contains more footage from Captain America than The Avengers which is why I’m being so extra careful.

I will note first that this is NOT the full teaser following Captain America, just a portion of it. So its a teaser for a teaser. That works. If you have any interest in seeing The Avengers, it would be worth it to see Captain America, as its probably the best Marvel Studios movie since the original Iron Man started this march toward the team up 3 years ago.

Marvel Studios, without having an official presence at San Diego Comic Con, still managed to satisfy their base by releasing 7 character art posters and theater teaser poster for next year’s The Avengers.

The gallery included artwork showing Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man, Mark Ruffalo as Hulk, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Chris Evans as Captain America, Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury, Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill, and Clark Gregg as Agent Caulson.

As you can see, these posters form a larger picture. I’ve ‘assembled’ the banners into a version larger than the one Marvel released. Click the banner here below to see the big version!
