Zap2it sprak met Cobie Smulders (How I Met Your Mother) over haar rol van S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Maria Hill in Joss Whedons The Avengers. Smulders, die tevens Whedons eerste keuze was voor zijn geschrapte Wonder Woman film, zegt het volgende over de opnames van Marvels superheldenspektakel:

"They start in April, which is like... tomorrow. I literally leave here and I go to Albuquerque, New Mexico, to shoot some scenes in a catsuit."

Ze voegt hier het volgende aan toe:

"I've tried on portions of the catsuit and I've seen conceptual drawings of what they want it to be. It's fascinating to me. I feel like wardrobe becomes very creative on these types of movies because they literally spend weeks designing just the pants or the emblem. It's such an all-consuming process, so I'm excited to see how it all turns out."

Smulders wordt in New Mexico vergezeld door o.a. Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, Clark Gregg, Scarlett Johansson, Samuel L. Jackson en Mark Ruffalo. Vanaf 3 mei 2012 kunnen we in de bioscoop zien hoe The Avengers de wereld redden.
