'Ultron'
won't be based on the Marvel comic series of the same name and will
have a darker tone than the original film.JossWhedon could have escaped Comic-Con a
hero simply by taking the stage in Hall H on Saturday and announcing
the title of his next Marvel flick, "Avengers:Age of Ultron."
But
on Sunday at the Con, the director decided to pull back the curtain
on his plans for the superhero sequel during a chat with Marvel LIVE,
and for that we salute him.
"Ageof Ultron," he revealed, will start shooting in London at the
end February or the beginning of March (ahead of the film's summer
2015 release date). Read on for the rest of the news Whedon revealed
about the film.
'Ageof Ultron' Will Not Be Based on 'Age of Ultron. "Age of Ultron,"
a recent Marvel event penned by Brian Michael Bendis, shot up the
Amazon sales
chart after
Saturday's announcement. Those eager buyers might have acted a bit
too swiftly.
"[That's]
not the case," Whedon said of basing the movie on the book.
"We're doing our own version of the origin story of Ultron....We
were crafting our own version of it where [Ultron's] own origin comes
more directly from the Avengers were already know about."
HankPym Isn't Involved. Since a) an "Ant-Man" movie
is in the works, b) Ant-Man is a creator of one version of the robot
Ultron, and c) HankPym is one
alter-ego of Ant-Man, many people assumed Pym would play a role in
Whedon's "Age of Ultron." Not true, said Whedon.
"The
other thing is in the origin story there was Hank Pim, so a lot of
people assumed he was going to be in the mix, but he's not," he
said. "We're basically taking the things from the comics for the
movies that we need and can use. A lot of stuff has to fall by the
way side."
Ultron
Was An Obvious Choice.We'll let Whedon take this one: "Ultron
has been their chief villain when I read the book. He's
been the Avengers villain. I was amazed anybody was
surprised it was going to be him in the movie. Since before I even
took the job of making the first one: 'I don't know if I want to make
this movie but the second one should have Ultron in it.' "
He
added of the character's physical appearance in the film, "Ultron
is definitely someone who evolves, so we're going to get a couple
different iterations."
Ultron
Was Obvious.The script is almost done, according to Whedon — and it
will likely look and feel quite different than the 2012 original.
"It'sa little bit darker than the other film since Ultron's in the house,"
he said. "It's got a sci-fi element to it that's a little bit
stronger than the other film. Getting the team together was so
rousing. But seriously, keeping the team together is a completely
different problem."
