Marvel Studios, which kicked things off with Iron Man in 2008, has released 17 films that collectively have grossed more than $13 billion at the global box office; 5 more movies are due out in the next two years. The sprawling franchise has resuscitated careers (Downey), has minted new stars (Tom Hiddleston), and increasingly attracts an impressive range of A-list talent, from art-house favorites (Benedict Cumberbatch and Tilda Swinton in Doctor Strange) to Hollywood icons (Anthony Hopkins and Robert Redford) to at least three handsome guys named Chris (Hemsworth, Evans, and Pratt).
The Russos’ AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR and the untitled AVENGERS 4 will reportedly take 9 months to shoot and they will use IMAX and ARRI’s new large format 2D digital camera, the Alexa 65 and this marks the first big Hollywood studio project that will be completely filmed using IMAX cameras.
Production takes place in Atlanta, Georgia with both films shot back-to-back.
Prior to that, The Russos’ shot select action sequences of “Captain America: Civil War” using the IMAX/ARRI 2D digital camera.
Screenwriting team Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, both of whom penned all of “Captain America” movies, will provide the script.
AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR arrives May 4, 2018
Untitled AVENGERS 4 arrives May 3, 2019
