Joss Whedon‘s forthcoming action-adventure outing The Avengers is like the superhero equivalent of Jive Bunny*. The list of characters reads like Marvel Comic royalty: Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Captain America, Thor… In The Avengers an unexpected enemy emerges that threatens global safety and security, and only an epic team of superheroes can pull the world back from the brink of disaster. And Scarlett Johansson wears a rubber suit! That synopsis alone ought to be enough to make you want to punch yourself with excitement and so without further adieu…
The Avengers opens on May 4, 2012.
*Fair enough if you aren’t familiar with this phenomenon. ‘Jive Bunny and the Mastermixers’ were an early ’90s musical act who made songs by sampling swing hits and rock n roll classics, pioneering the the ‘megamix’ phenomenon.
