FilmStudies Research Project...

For my FilmStudies research project, I will be following the marketing and release of Marvel's The Avengers movie.

Release Date: May 4th, 2012 (USA)
Starring: Samuel L. Jackson and Robert Downey, JR,.

Synopsis:

When an unexpected enemy emerges who threatens global safety and security, Nick Fury, the director of the international peacekeeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., finds himself in need of a team of superheroes to pull the world back from the brink of disaster.

Offical Trailer:



I have decided to study and follow the release of this film because of the huge marketing budget and marketing scale behind it; The Avengers follows the release of several previous Marvel superhero films building up to The Avengers storyline, including Iron Man
and The Hulk, and is predicted to be the boxoffice smash hit of the summer.
