14 DAY TRIAL // If the stars of Marvel’s “Avengers: Age of Ultron” walked up on stage in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con 2014 and took questions about the film, Warner Bros.’ panel wasn’t even half as engaging and fun, even though it also included 2 presentations, for “Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice” and “Jupiter Ascending.”
You can see it in full below.
Director Zack Snyder was up on stage, taking a break from shooting “Batman V. Superman” to introduce the first footage from the film (which he played twice, but isn’t included in the video), and he also surprised fans in attendance by asking his leading trio of actors to join him.
Ben Affleck (Batman), Henry Cavill (Superman), and Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman) came up and smiled and waved to the fans, but at Snyder’s request, they weren’t handed microphones because they had to go back to shoot the movie. So no, they didn’t say anything, either about the movie or about anything else.
After the teaser trailer played again, Channing Tatum walked up to talk about the Wachowskis’ “Jupiter Ascending.” He didn’t do a Q&A either, though he probably would have if given the chance. He explained that his co-star Mila Kunis couldn’t be there with him because she was “super pregnant” so she couldn’t travel to San Diego, although she would have liked to be able to do so.
He also said that he was eager to walk the floor, but was considering putting on a costume because that would allow him to move around unnoticed. Then the footage was screened, with various voices saying that it was beautiful, visually complex, and very promising.
