It was not scheduled to be released for another week.
Yet thanks to a bootleg version of the Avengers: Age Of
Ultron trailer leaking on Wednesday, Marvel Studios
decided to rush things forward.
And the video paints a bleak and eerie picture for the
sequel to the hit 2012 Marvel film.
The band of iconic superheroes can be seen looking
defeated and on the verge of giving up hope as the
world around them goes to chaos.
In the Joss Whedon directed film which debuts May
2015, Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) tries to jumpstart
a dormant peacekeeping program and things go
awry, according to IMDB.
‘It is up to The Avengers to stop the villainous Ultron
from enacting his terrible plans.’
And this is no easy task, as Ultron, voiced by James
Spader, certainly seems to have the upper hand for
much of the film.
Ironic: The clip begins with Ultron stating, 'I'm
gonna show you something beautiful'
Turmoil: This is followed by scenes of destruction
and people running through streets in chaos
Dejected: The band of iconic superheroes can be
seen looking defeated and on the verge of giving
up hope as the world around them goes to chaos
He narrates the video in an ominous and gravelly
voice, relishing the destruction he has caused.
The clip begins with Ultron stating, ‘I’m gonna show
you something beautiful.’
This is followed by scenes of destruction and people
running through streets in chaos.
‘Everyone screaming,’ Ultron continues. ‘For mercy. You
want to protect the world but you don’t want it to
change.'
His words are interspersed with images of our
favourite superheroes appearing overwhelmed and
defeated amid the pandemonium.
In one scene, Mark Ruffalo (The Hulk), Scarlett
Johansson (Black Widow), Chris Hemsworth (Thor),
and Chris Evans (Captain America) can be seen
idling in an aircraft, appearing limp and utterly
dejected.
Mark is literally shaking in fear. ‘You’re all puppets
tangled in strings,’ Ultron says.
‘It’s the end,’ Tony Stark says in an empty voice. ‘The
end of the path I started us on.’
‘Nothing lasts forever,’ Natasha Romanoff aka Black
Widow (Johansson) counters.
The clip ends with a close-up of Ultron’s piercing red
gaze as he growls: ‘Now I’m free. There are no strings
on me.’
The movie also stars Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye,
Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Cobie Smulders as
Maria Hill, Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver,
Elizabeth Olsen as Scarlet Witch, and Paul Bettany
as The Vision.
