'Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.' Extended Trailer: 'We're Not Exactly A Team'

Honestly, the 30 second teaser for "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." was enough to get me excited for the show (coming Tuesdays this fall on ABC). Now, as part of ABC's #CoulsonLives campaign, over two more minutes of footage has been revealed in the form of an extended trailer.

And it's awesome.

The extended trailer shows off some choice Joss Whedon jokes, especially the one about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s name, and gives us a better look at the show's core ensemble. Check out the trailer right now. Right. Now.

Get ready to see a lot of Melinda May cosplay on the con circuit this year, because she's a standout. We also get more time with the ever mysterious J. August Richards, who might be playing someone whose name isn't Cage or Rage if that funky jewelry that's glimpsed quickly is his.

What do you think of the full "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." trailer? Let us know in the comments below or hit us up on Twitter!

Mark Ruffalo: Everyone Is Back For 'The Avengers 2'

Posted 5/14/13 3:30 pm EST by in Marvel, News

Ruffalo Downey

It seems as though the concern about who will and won't be back for "The Avengers 2" might be all for naught. Based on what Mark Ruffalo's knows, the entire cast of "The Avengers" should be returning in the new movie.

"I haven't caught wind of any of that," Ruffalo told Moviefone of rumors that some cast members won't return. "I was surprised to hear it, because I don't even think anyone's really started negotiating yet... As far as I know [everyone is back]. But sometimes actors are the last people to know what's going on."

"Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." is starting to seem like the gift that keeps on giving. After debuting a 30 second trailer on Sunday night, the show has gone on to launch a significant internet presence and inspired more than a few "Who is J. August Richards playing" posts both here and elsewhere. Now "S.H.I.E.L.D." has revealed exactly which hour of the week we'll be blocking off for total immersion into Marvel's world come this fall. "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." will air on ABC on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. as the lead-in to a pair of comedies, "The Goldbergs" and "Trophy Wife."

And if a time slot isn't enough to hold you over, how about promo photos? Like, a lot of promo photos? ABC has released a few stills from the pilot and a ton of photos highlighting each principle cast member. Above you can see Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) possibly interrogating possible Rising Tide contributor Skye (Chloe Bennet), while Agent Grant Ward (Brett Dalton) looks on. We don't know much about the pilot, so at this point anything is possible. Check out the rest of the photos below!

Exclusive: Mark Ruffalo Reveals Hulk's Role In Marvel's Phase 2 Films

Posted 5/14/13 11:57 am EST by in interviews, Marvel, News, Video

Mark Ruffalo

by Brett White

MTV News caught up with Mark Ruffalo while the actor was promoting his new film, "Now You See Me." Him being Bruce Banner and us being Splash Page, of course we made sure to get a few questions in about the Hulk. The big question: will Ruffalo be donning a classy-yet-casual purple button-down in a Marvel film prior to 2015's "Avengers 2"?

"Not that I know of, yet," reveals the actor in the video below. But he also reveals that he's very eager to jump back into the Hulk's motion capture suit for director Joss Whedon. "I'm really looking forward to seeing what Mr. Whedon comes up with next."

The rest of the video treads heavily into some spoiler-y territory, as Ruffalo has clearly seen "Iron Man 3" and is up for talking about the film's very spoiler-y plot points, but it's well worth watching if you've seen the film or are fine with spoilers. The full video is after the jump!

'Guardians Of The Galaxy': Zoe Saldana Reveals She's In An 'Action Frenzy'

Posted 5/14/13 10:30 am EST by in Marvel, News

by Brett White

While promoting "Star Trek Into Darkness," actress Zoe Saldana talked a little bit about her upcoming role as Gamora in Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy" to Collider. The actress has opened up about her decision to join the Marvel Universe a few times recently, but now she's able to reflect on her decision to join the ensemble in the wake of "Iron Man 3" making nearly a billion dollars worldwide.

"It makes me excited that I'm going to be a part of something, a world that's going to challenge me – I mean, I'm going to get to play green, I've been a blue one, so might as well be green. I really like the director, James Gunn, [and] I responded very, very well to the script. I loved the casting decisions they've been making so far. I can only hope we kick ass and we have a great time while we're putting the film together. And that the result of that, the audience will respond very positively to it and hopefully we'll be able to make just as much as Iron Man is making right now."

'X-Men: Days Of Future Past': New Set Photo Of Beast And Wolverine Changes Everything

Posted 5/14/13 10:00 am EST by in Marvel, News, Twitter Report

by Brett White

I thought I had it all figured out. Judging by the wardrobe tests Bryan Singer has tweeted out, it seemed like production on "X-Men: Days of Future Past" was starting with the future/modern day X-Men. The costumes are all fairly post-apocalyptic. But now the director has tweeted an image that throws that assumption out the window.

We just saw Professor X's 1973 look late last week, and now we have another peek at yesteryear. Only this time it shows off our first look at returning actor Nicholas Hoult as the Beast alongside Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. You can check out the full tweet and photo after the jump, as well as a list of reasons why this photo changes everything.

'Man Of Steel': New Photos Show Off Perry White, Martha Kent And More

Posted 5/13/13 4:45 pm EST by in DC Comics, News, Photos

Perry White

by Brett White

Seven character photos from "Man of Steel" have surfaced online, and they're notable because not one of them features Superman (okay, Clark Kent is in one of them). It's appropriate that the "Man of Steel" marketing has centered squarely on Superman and his archnemesis General Zod, but that's left characters like both of Superman's sets of parents and essential supporting characters like Perry White out of the spotlight.

These photos, which popped up on Twitter, come from a movie tie-in book of some sort, as evidenced by the quick bios each character receives. The scans also give us a clear look at Christopher Meloni's Colonel Hardy and Ayelet Zurer's Lara Lor-Van. You can check out the full images below.

Could 'The Walking Dead' Be Turned Into A Movie?

Posted 5/13/13 2:15 pm EST by in News, TV

The Walking Dead

FROM MTV GEEK

Is "The Walking Dead" headed from the small to the big screen? If star Chad Coleman is to be believed, then a movie based on the popular AMC series (which in turn is based on Robert Kirkman's popular graphic novel) is being dreamed up at the moment. MTV Geek spoke to Coleman recently and he explained why he thinks it's a given that "The Walking Dead" will join the likes of "The X-Files" and "Firefly" and make the transition to a theater near you. To hear his argument, head on over to MTV Geek!
