At the Sony Pictures lot in Culver City, Marvel's president of production Kevin Feige spoke about some of the upcoming Marvel films, including "Iron Man 2," "Thor," "Captain America," "The Avengers," "Ant-Man," and a new, mysterious film. We broke down all the updates below. [via FirstShowing]
* In "Iron Man 2," Scarlett Johansson's character has "two sides." She is first an assistant to Tony Stark, but later is revealed to be the Black Widow. Seems like she will eventually betray Stark just like in the comics.
* "Thor" takes place on both modern Earth and other worlds like Asgard.
* In "Thor," Kenneth Branagh will not use classic Shakespearian dialogue like in the comics.
* The order of films (Iron Man 2, Thor, Captain America, Avengers) is on purpose. Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston have signed on for multiple films in "multiple franchises." Feige mentioned that he wants characters to make surprise appearances just like in the comics.
* "Captain America" is a period piece that takes place during WWII.
* In "Captain America," the hero's sidekick Bucky will make an appearance.
* "Avengers" was first considered as an animated film. Feige added: "why don't we wait" until the characters are introduced in their own movies and then have them come together in a "surprise" manner in "Avengers."
* Marvel will look at Edgar Wright's "Ant-Man" script, after Wright is finished with "Scott Pilgrim."
* Feige mentioned that another Marvel movie will be announced for a 2012 release.
