THE AVENGERSWith only a few days left until "The Avengers" hits its U.S. release date, it's become increasingly difficult to avoid seeing Earth's Mightiest Heroes on everything from television advertisements to billboards and web ads. Here's the newest TV spot from Marvel's official YouTube account called "Balance 2."

Speaking of clips, Chris Evans showed up on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to debut a new clip from Earth's Mightiest Movie. A tip of the hat to Comic Book Movie for the heads up. Take a look.

Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige spoke with Wired about the Marvel Cinematic Universe and what not having the X-Men and Spider-Man in the same wheelhouse means for continuity.

"Well, look, clearly we would prefer everything be at home, so to speak," Feige told Wired. "But all the contracts are different. Some of them have very firm reversion dates, and some of them we don't expect to get back any time soon, let's put it that way. We're fine with that. We have a great relationship with Sony and Fox. Would we like to have them all back? Sure. But we are more than comfortable with the way things stand now, because it worked out pretty well, right? The Avengers is a gargantuan part of the Marvel Universe, as big a part or bigger part than X-Men, bigger than Fantastic Four. There's no doubt that Spider-Man is the most well-known, but in terms of families of characters, Avengers is bigger. Yes, the book has been around so long that almost every single character has popped in and out at some point. But there was a little bit of planning and a lot of luck that we ended up with Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye, Widow, Fury, SHIELD, all within our rights. Because that obviously led up to The Avengers."

Meanwhile, Comic Book Movie spoke with Chris Hemsworth about his role as Thor in the film and how he owes his casting as the God of Thunder to director Joss Whedon.

"Joss called Ken Branaugh and said, 'I'm working with Chris, you should see the guy,'" Hemsworth told Comic Book Movie. "Joss was a huge fan of Ken and Ken was a big fan of him, so I kind of slipped in the middle somewhere, got back in the room and then it all came full circle."

Finally, Chris Hemsworth and Chris Evans spoke to Collider about some of the film's deleted scenes.
