The Avengers in 3D

Surprise, surprise! Get ready for The Avengers in 3D!

And no, we’re not talking about convertion, because Joss Whedon will actually be shooting the whole thing using 3D equipment as opposed to converting the film once it has been shot.

Ok, at least that is a good news, especially after we heard Marvel’s plans for Thor…

This will be the first time Marvel Studios has actually shot a film in the popular 3D format. Director Whedon and the studio have hinted for some time that The Avengers would be presented in 3D.

Now it looks that it’s finally happening. Filming of The Avengers is set to begin in February.

The Avengers comes to theaters May 4th, 2012 and stars Robert Downey Jr., Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Evans, Jeremy Renner, Chris Hemsworth, Samuel L. Jackson, Don Cheadle, Clark Gregg, and Tom Hiddleston.

With every new update on this one, we’ll be back!
