The Avengers (or Avengers Assemble depending on which side of the pond you fall on) is the second highest grossing movie of all-time and was a hit with fans and critics alike when it was released back in 2012.
As a result, there’s a lot of pressure on both the movie itself and writer/director Joss Whedon to deliver the goods in Avengers: Age of Ultron, and based on the second trailer for the sequel, it’s going to be truly epic!
If you missed it, you can watch that trailer by clicking here. Below, you’ll find ten of the most significant and revealing moments from the preview, with details on what they mean and what they might lead to.
Don’t forget to also take a look at the first trailer for Marvel’s Ant-Man and our breakdown here and here.
10. Evacuations
Right at the start of the trailer, we see a new transporter of some kind which is being used by Earth’s Mightiest Heroes to move civilians away from danger. Though the team did their best to protect the public during the attack on New York in Avengers Assemble, this isn’t something we saw all that much of during the hectic fight which had the team come together for the first time. Hawkeye evacuating them here amidst widespread destruction not only tells us that The Avengers are now better prepared, but also that Ultron’s reach must spread far and wide, putting countless lives in danger. The first film may pale in comparison…
