Joss Whedon began filming
Avengers: Age of Ultron in South Korea today and one onlooker was able to capture it all on video, which you can view below. It features Chris Evans' stunt-doubles dressed in a new Captain America costume that was designed for
Avengers 2. It appears to be quite similar to his retro costume that was seen in Marvel's latest blockbuster,
Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but with a few tweaks here and there. The scenes that were filmed involved Steve Rogers performing stunts on a moving truck. The scenes took place on the Mapo Bridge, which is a notorious suicide spot. Why do I bring that up? Cause the
Avengers 2 crew
came across a dead body today while preparing the set. Don't worry I won't end on a downer like that. Marvel has much to cheer about this weekend as
Captain America: The Winter Soldier opened in 57% of the international marketplace and pulled in a strong $75.2M. Yahoo!
Thanks to Nerdy Geek for the heads up!
