Extended AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON Scene Teases Maria Hill's Arc In CIVIL WAR

Though the Avengers: Age Of Ultron DVD release is still over a month away, a few of the special features have begun to pop-up online. Following on the gag reel's debut last week, a new deleted/extended scene has now surfaced on Tumblr. The clip is just over a minute long, and features an prolonged conversation between Steve Rogers and Maria Hill, following on from the Avengers' return from Sokovia at the beginning of the movie.
While it doesn't offer any particularly shocking new footage, the scene does give a little more focus to Cobie Smulders' Hill, and how her views on attaining peace contrast with Captain America's. Fans of the Civil War comic will be aware that Maria Hill plays a vital role in that story, heading up the Superhero Registration Act alongside Iron Man - and against Cap.
So far, the Maria Hill we've seen in the MCU hasn't been nearly as headstrong or forthright as her comic book counterpart (although she does have a far more likeable personality). It seems director Joss Whedon was teasing a more antagonistic Hill here, ahead of her role in Captain America: Civil War next year. What do you think? Would you have liked to have seen Hill's darker side included in the final cut, or was it rightfully removed? Sound off below!
Age Of Ultron will be released on Digital 3D, HD & Disney Movies Anywhere on September 8, while the 3D Blu-Ray Combo Pack, Blu-Ray, DVD, Digital SD & On-Demand hits October 2.
