Avengers Assemble! Avengers script stolen and Loki’s role in the film

Some interesting information about  Joss Wheadon‘s, The Avengers. has come out recently, so I felt like combining everything I know into one post for everyone.

First up, probably the most interesting and strangest thing that has happened on set. Someone has actually stolen a copy of the script to the film and has cause production to come to a stand still. What makes it even more interesting is that the script is said to have belonged to Samuel L. Jackson who is playing S.H.I.E.L.D leader, Nick Fury. I don’t know who in their right mind would steal his script, but they better pray  Samuel never finds them.

The person who stole the script has been trying to sell it to different news outlets hoping to make a quick buck. Thankfully everyone has stayed strong and it doesn’t seem like anyone has purchased the script from the scumbag. Apparently a site ,which won’t be named, posted some pictures of the script to prove that it was real and it included a scene from the film which is now being either removed entirely or being rewritten. It involved Black Widow witnessing Bruce Banner turning into the Hulk. Sounds pretty awesome to me, but now because of this site and the douche who stole the script, we will allegedly never see this scene.

As far as the production of the film is concerned, it seems there has been no official word from Disney or Marvel about production being placed on hold so they can rewrite some of the scenes that were leaked. Different outlets are contradicting one another about the current status of production on the film, so for right now, until we hear something official, consider the production of the film to continue on.

Onto the second bit of information about the film. Now depending on how much you actually want to know about the film, I will consider the next interview that was done with Tom Hiddleston who plays Loki in Marvels Thor, opening this weekend, to be a SPOILER-ISH interview. He talk briefly about his role in the film along with very cryptic information about the plot of the film. I will say, we really don’t learn anything ground breaking from the interview. but if you would rather not know anything about the film, don’t read the very end of the article ( I will place another spoiler tag so you know).

I reported awhile back that Hiddleston was claiming he was not going to be in the film at all, which everyone knew was a lie. Vulture was about to speak with Hiddleston and discussed his meeting with Joss Wheadon and what he knows about his role in the film.

Here are some brief comments from the interview:

Well, I think it was a plan from the get-go, but it wasn’t really dead-set until near the end of Thor. What was wonderful is that about four days after I wrapped on Thor, I went out for a cup of tea with Joss Whedon. We sat down at two o’clock in the afternoon, and we were still sitting there at six o’clock. He said, “Listen, you’ve lived with this guy for six months. I want you to spill the beans and tell me all of his dark secrets. Who is this guy? Why is he who he is?” Ken had already shown him a rough cut of the film, and mercifully, everything I had done accorded with Joss’s idea of the character, too. I’m really so flattered that Marvel and Josh think I can take them all on. In Avengers, it’s going to be me versus seven of them, and I say “Good luck to them,” frankly.

Since I haven’t seen Thor yet, I don’t really know much of Loki’s story in the Marvel film universe, but here is what he said about the carryover to The Avengers:

It’s tough to say. I think Loki’s intelligence is never switched off. Let’s put it this way: He has really big, evil plans that will take more than his thunderous brother to put a stop to, but that doesn’t mean that the layers aren’t still there.

Now I will explain to you what all this could possibly mean. (SPOILER TIME!!!!!) It has been rumored that the Cosmic cube, which we have seen in the trailer for Captain America: The First Avenger, will play an important role in The Avengers. Based on what Tom said, it leads me to believe that Loki will use the Cosmic Cube, which is known to summon an alien race known as The Skrulls to attack the world and the Avengers. Again this is just an educated assumption and we don’t know for a fact this is what will happen.
