'I have to make my movie assuming that people will only have seen the first one, or possibly not even seen the first one.
I can't assume that everybody went to see, and in-between. I have to go from one movie to the next and be true to what's happened, but not be slavish to it. The model I'm always trying to build from, my guiding star, is where a ton has happened in-between and it's a very different movie from , but you don't need any information: it's there in the film.' —Joss Whedon, director of Avengers: Age of Ultron, on balancing the film's accessibility and continuity.In October 2011, president of said the studio was beginning to look at their films, which would start with Iron Man 3 and would culminate in a second Avengers film. In March 2012, director of, stated that he would want a sequel to be 'smaller.
More personal. More painful. By being the next thing that should happen to these characters, and not just a rehash of what seemed to work the first time. By having a theme that is completely fresh and organic to itself.' Despite the production of the film becoming increasingly wider in scope, Feige maintained that this was not their intention, always looking to see where the team wanted to take the characters, over how to make it bigger than The Avengers.At the premiere of The Avengers, Feige said the studio had an for Whedon to return as director.
In May 2012, after the successful release of the first film, CEO announced a sequel was in development. Most of the film's cast members were under contract to potentially appear in the sequel; however, was not, as his four-picture deal with Marvel expired after Iron Man 3.At the 2012, Whedon said he was undecided about directing.
However, in August 2012, Iger announced that Whedon would return to write and direct the sequel and develop the Marvel television series, for. Later in the month, Disney set a May 1, 2015, release date. When asked about his decision to return, Whedon said, ' Avengers 2, it wasn't a tough decision. For a long time I thought, 'Well, it's just not going to happen.' Then when I actually started to consider it, it became so clear that I desperately wanted to say more about these characters, it would've been an easy no and it was a spectacularly easy yes. There was no wrestling.' Whedon said that they intended for the film's production to not be as rushed as the first one.In December 2012, Whedon stated that he had completed an outline for the film.
In February, at the 2013, Whedon said that death would play a theme in the sequel, and in March, he said that he looked to and The Godfather Part II as inspirations.Feige revealed that, who starred in her, appeared in an early draft of the screenplay, but was removed since the character had not yet been cast, saying, 'It didn't feel like the time. We didn't want to introduce her fully formed flying in a costume before you knew who she was or how she came to be.' Whedon went so far as to shoot visual effects plates for Captain Marvel to fly into Avengers Headquarters at the end of the film; those shots were reused, however, for Scarlet Witch instead. Feige also revealed that an early draft of the script had Hulk's Quinjet detected near Saturn at the end of the film, but it was finally decided to keep it Earth-based and leave his fate ambiguous in order to dispel rumors that a film based on the ' comic storyline was in development, which Marvel Studios had no plans to adapt at the time. Marvel would later decide to adapt 'Planet Hulk' for the film, in which the Hulk does end up leaving Earth. Pre-productionBy April 2013, filming was scheduled to begin in early 2014 at in.
At the Hollywood premiere of Iron Man 3, Whedon said that he had completed a draft of the script, started the process, and met with actors. Whedon also mentioned that he wrote with Downey in mind and included a 'brother/sister act' from the comic books, later confirming that he was referring to.
Whedon explained his rationale for including the characters in the film saying, 'their powers are very visually interesting. One of the problems I had on the first one was everybody basically had punchy powers Quicksilver's got super speed. Scarlet Witch can weave spells and a little telekinesis, get inside your head. There's good stuff that they can do that will help sort of keep it fresh,' though cautioned he was not throwing in more characters for the sake of doing that.
Whedon stated that the twins allowed him to add more conflict: 'They don't like America, and they don't like the Avengers The Avengers are like a world power, and not everybody's on board with the Avengers coming in and starting fights, even in the name of justice. So you need that dissenting voice, and you need to understand it and sympathize with it.'
Because Marvel Studios shares the film rights to Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch with and had to avoid conflict with Fox's, Whedon introduced two important characters into the Marvel Cinematic Universe completely on his terms for the first time, which allowed him to connect their origin stories to the universe that they created and avoid the concept of.

Whedon added that Ultron's origin would differ from his comics roots, and that would not be involved with Ultron's creation. Whedon disclosed that had rights to the character first through his inclusion in, which was already in development.
He also thought that Ultron needed to be conceived through the Avengers and since they already had Tony Stark and Bruce Banner on the team, it would not make sense to bring in a third scientist. Whedon also said the film would have a darker tone due to Ultron's involvement.The title of the film came as a surprise to many fans who were expecting, the mastermind behind the events of the first film, to be the main villain in the sequel, with Whedon saying, 'Thanos was never meant to be the next villain. He's always been the overlord of villainy and darkness.' Commenting on finding the right balance between technology- and fantasy-based heroes in Avengers: Age of Ultron, Feige said 'Iron Man is a very technological hero; his movies are always technologically based. The first was all about introducing and Thor in that more fantastical realm into the more reality-based MCU As we go into Ultron clearly he does come out of technology, but we're using all of our tools at our disposal that we've established so far as part of the MCU to build the storyline of Age of Ultron.'

Whedon said 'juggling' all the characters in the film was 'a nightmare' explaining, 'They're very disparate characters. The joy of the Avengers is they really don't belong in the same room.
It's not like the, who are all tortured by the same thing and have similar costumes. These guys are just all over the place. And so it's tough. Honestly, this is as tough as anything I've ever done.'

None of that matters anymore. And so there's this whole exciting place to go that is kind of unknown.'
