Talking toThe Playlist,Joss WhedondiscussedS.H.I.E.L.D.andAvengers 2:
There’s been enormous progress. We are trundling along, I can’t share much. And by much I mean anything. I can say that “S.H.I.E.L.D” came together in a very organic way. And part of my taking “Avengers 2” was that I’d have the opportunity to work in the Marvel universe. I didn’t exactly know I’d be running a TV show five minutes later. Yeah, but it’s something I really believe in. Although, “Avengers” is the top of my list of exciting new things, “S.H.I.E.L.D.” is really talking to me.

Concept artistAndy Parkdid a bunch of work onThe Avengersand posted it online.Head to his site(viaSHH) for more.

Empire (viaCBM) askedTom Hiddlestonif he had the desire to direct and he revealed he asked to directThor: The Dark World:
I did ask, half-jokingly, Kevin Feige about directing Thor 2 and he said, ‘Do you have something to show me?’ I said no. He said, ‘If you made something and showed me, I might consider it.’ But it’s better for the world that he said no. It would be such a responsibility, but I think I’d enjoy it.

Speaking toHero Complex,Patrick Stewarthad this to say aboutX-Men: Days of Future Past:
I’m very happy to report that Bryan Singer is coming back to direct the movie. I’m very happy that my lovely friend Ian McKellen is going to be with me. I don’t know anyone else who is to be involved in the project. Maybe it’s just the two of us! That would be a movie! Magneto and Xavier’s conversations…. I’m not being cute. That’s all I know. Maybe once the holidays are over, more information will begin to come through. I have a vague idea of the time commitments, but I don’t know where we’re going to shoot. But I’m greatly looking forward to it.
