Some new interesting details about the new Marvel movie "Avengers: Age of Ultron".
1. The Hulk got a nice upgrade to his wardrobe with the addition of stretchy pants that he wears under his clothes. No longer would he have to be in the awkward situation of finding himself somewhere half naked in tattered clothes after transforming - the pants, made of high-tech microfiber, stretch with him.
2. Thanks to Tony Stark's engineering skills, Hawkeye received new weapons. He now has a variety of arrows that serve different purposes. The purpose of some of them is explained in the film, while viewers will simply see other arrows in action on the screen. Hawkeye's quiver has also changed - it is now more automatic and reloads much faster. It holds 9 arrows.
3. Hawkeye's bow also received a new design, the classic black color was changed to dark burgundy. New improvements to the bow include infrared and sound sights.
4. Captain America's shield also received an excellent improvement. Now it can be brought back after being thrown, similar to the new Iron Man suits. Instead of two attachments on the back, the shield now has a magnetic element that attaches to Cap's glove.
5. Thanks to Tony Stark, Black Widow will now be able to show off her new war clubs based on the Eskrima Sticks. But Black Widow's two batons are charged in the same way as her stingers, so when she attacks, she not only hits her opponent, but also delivers a significant electrical charge.
6. For the film, production designer Charles Wood and his team built a huge new Avengers Tower set, which was the largest set ever built for Marvel movies. Much of the film takes place there different levels. A large glass wall offers views of New York City, and the Quinjet's hangar can also be seen here. Multiple sets are connected together, with the ability to move from one floor to another as needed.
7. The Avengers Tower set is designed to serve the needs of the story in a variety of ways. In the film, the Tower, built and designed by Tony Stark, is a gathering place for the Avengers where they can plan, conduct business, relax or train. There is a living room, three laboratories, as well as a machine room, a gym, a recreation area and a locker room. The tower was also created to provide Tony Stark with everything he needed for his work and research.
8. New comic book characters will appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Wanda (Scarlet Witch) and Pietro Maximoff (Quicksilver), who have abilities never before seen on screen. Pietro is fast as lightning, and Wanda has the ability to telekinesis, and she can remotely send neurons into the brains of other people and, as a result, manipulate their consciousness.
9. Another new character for the Avengers team will be Vision, played by Paul Bettany, who previously voiced Jarvis in the Iron Man films. He is an artificially created life form with a truly unique appearance. He has incredible abilities that will be a great addition to the Avengers team.
10. The Hulkbuster is a famous piece of Iron Man technology - a super suit created to subdue the Hulk. The Hulkbuster Armor was developed by Tony Stark and Bruce Banner after studying the Hulk's physical activity and strength levels to try to be able to subdue him and minimize the destruction caused by his rage. The low-orbit satellite always follows Banner, and at the first request, Tony Stark can send the Hulkbuster armor into place, climb into it and stop the Hulk in his tracks - in theory.
11. The modified Quinjet has become more militarized appearance, and pilots now have a wide view of the environment around them. The cabin design was based on helicopter cabins, with glass in front and below, giving the viewer a feeling of incredible speed as Kunjet flies through the city. The interior was also adapted to more practical needs, the space became less crowded and many decorative elements were removed.
12. Drones and radio-controlled cars turned out to be a unique asset during the filming in Seoul, which helped deliver the camera to places inaccessible to camera operators and helicopters. The production team enlisted the expert support of the Menstru Pa brothers, Korea's national flying drone champions, as well as Min Kyu Park, Korea's national RC car racing champion.
13. The superhero wardrobe in the key party scene was the work of veteran costume designer Alexandra Byrne. Since this is the first time Thor will be seen at a party, Byrne worked with Chris Hemsworth to find the right jeans, jacket and tank combination that would flatter his figure without being too themed or over-the-top. It would have been much easier to dress up as Tony Stark, especially considering that Robert Downey Jr. I wanted to get a certain look. This was subsequently entrusted to the famous London tailors of Savile Row. After five fittings, a rather elegant look for Tony Stark was achieved.

Biography:
Origin:
The daughter of publishing magnate Derek Bishop, Kate grew up basking in luxury. However, she never felt comfortable among this wealth. Like her mother, she spent money and time on soup kitchens, women's shelters and charity. When her mother was killed, Kate became an even greater philanthropist. The death of her mother and her father's obsession with business forced Kate to manage her life from an early age. Some time after her mother's death, Kate was attacked while walking through Central Park at night. Although the exact nature of the attack is never clearly stated, it is implied that she was sexually assaulted. She didn't tell anyone about what happened except her therapist and Jessica Jones. Channeling her grief, shame and feelings of helplessness in a positive direction, Kate began training. In her private school, Hawthorne Academy and at the elite Interlochen National Music Camp, she practiced archery, fencing, sword fighting, studied self-defense techniques, as well as some other types of combat. She did all this to prepare herself for similar attacks in the future, and to prevent this from happening to others.
Kate met Young Avengers(Young Avengers) during her sister's wedding at St. Patrick's Cathedral, when bandits took everyone in the church hostage. Kate tried to join the fight after the Young Avengers neutralized most of the bandits. When she was captured With a gun to her head, she used one of the Patriot's throwing stars to defeat her captor. Kate's "Heroism" made the news, and when Cassie Lang spotted her trying to find the Young Avengers, both girls followed. their group to the destroyed Avengers Mansion, where the older Avengers tried to convince their young colleagues to disperse after tracking Iron Man. Iron Man) when he opened the doors, Kate used his passcode to free Cassie and the Young Avengers after the Avengers had locked them away for their own safety. Kate took equipment from the adjacent rooms, equipping herself with equipment previously used by previous members of the Avengers: Mockingbird's battle poles, Hawkeye's bow, as well as Swordsman's sword and Black Widow's belt. When Kate first appeared wearing the Mockingbird mask, Patriot jokingly called her Mockingbird.
When the Avengers and Young Avengers fought Kang the Conqueror, Kate was among their ranks, but after their victory she was forced to give up her equipment. Captain America and Iron Man ordered the team to disperse and refused to train them without their parents' consent.
Not wanting to miss the chance to truly make a difference, Kate kept the Young Avengers from falling apart. She used her father's money to get new uniforms and weapons for the team after their original uniforms were confiscated by Captain America and Iron Man. Kate was the main force holding the team together after the older heroes refused to help them. The team also used an empty building her father owned as a base.

After Patriot was injured during the battle between the Kree and Skrull empires due to Hulkling, Captain America again tried to convince the Young Avengers to start living normal lives. Kate stated to him that if he had trained them, Patriot's injury could have been avoided and it would be better for him if he accepted the Young Avengers and helped them. Jessica Jones gave Kate the first Hawkeye's bow and arrow with a note from Captain America addressed to Hawkeye. Jessica said that the only person who could talk normally to Captain America was Clint Barton(Clint Barton), and that Captain America wants Kate to take Clint's nickname. Kate did just that, becoming second Hawkeye.

Civil War and aftermath
Kate and the rest of the Young Avengers teamed up with Captain America's supporters after the Secret Avengers freed them from the unit's custody. S.H.I.E.L.D.(S.H.I.E.L.D.) Capekiller. During the conflict, the new Hawkeye, along with her team, went to Los Angeles to help To the fugitives(Runaways), and both teams joined forces against the threat of Warden and Marvel Boy. Kate was disappointed with her friend State's decision to register after Goliath's death, but continued to support her friendly support, and they parted as friends. Also during the conflict, she, Patriot and the new Vision encountered Bucky for the first time, and helped him deal with the HYDRA unit. She will remember this experience for months.
After the victory of Iron Man's forces in Civil War(Civil War), Hawkeye remained with the rebel superheroes. She often went on patrol with Patriot. Shortly before Captain America's funeral, Hawkeye and the Patriot encountered Clint Barton, the original Hawkeye (at this time wearing the Captain's costume and shield). Unaware of his true identity, Kate criticized him for usurping the name and costume of Captain America, and for being a puppet of the US government. During the process, she explained that she chose the nickname Hawkeye in honor of Clint, but she did not copy his costume because she considered it shameful. She also stated: " If Hawkeye were alive, I would call myself something else." Stunned by the revelation, Barton let the two Young Avengers go, even naming Kate Hawkeye before turning down Iron Man's offer and joining New Avengers(New Avengers) Luke Cage.
Kate continued to act with the team. She once again helped Patriot find Bucky and destroyed the base. CII(AIM), and also helped her close friend Heights (Cassie Lang), after she injured her father during a fight with Growing Man. As time passed, her relationship with Eli (Patriot) developed, and eventually they went to Central Park on a date. Unfortunately, the date didn't end well as Kate, still unsure of her feelings, turned down Ali's offer to make their relationship official. An impromptu ambush and sparring session organized by Ronin(Ronin) didn't help matters. Having accepted Ronin's (who was actually Clint Barton with a new name and persona) offer to meet at the New Avengers headquarters, Kate was shocked to learn that he was Barton, returned from the dead, and that he had called her to check. Is she worthy to bear the name Hawkeye? Kate bet Clint that he couldn't split an arrow with another arrow, and when he asked " Oh yeah? And why not?" she replied: " Because it's impossible, you fool. Here's why. Even the Mythbusters couldn't do it, and they had five arrows to one, old man.". Kate was so confident of her victory that she bet Clint's old bow on the line. Clint won using a much inferior bow, emphasizing that no matter how impossible it is, the lives of the team members depend on it and someone always has to take the shot.
After losing the name and the bow, Kate accepted Speed's offer of a date and agreed to participate in stealing the bow from the Avengers. Meanwhile, Clint tried to stand up for the Young Avengers against the New Avengers, wanting to become their mentor. Although Kate managed to recover the bow, the theft did not go unnoticed by Barton, who saw it as a sign that Bishop was willing to stand up for her beliefs and would not back down in the face of challenges. After officially giving her his blessing to use the name Hawkeye and the bow, and promising to let her lead the Young Avengers as she saw fit, Barton presented her with an image of the Age Avengers "The Crazy Quartet"(Hawkeye, Captain America, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver in their early days as the Avengers). Having established herself as Hawkeye, Kate decided to date Patriot rather than Speed, asking him to be patient with her and give her time.
Secret Invasion
During the Skrull invasion, Hawkeye and the Young Avengers were the first superheroes on the scene, and despite their best efforts, they were eventually defeated by the Skrulls' superior forces. Luckily, they were rescued by Nick Fury and his Secret Warriors, and Kate joined the heroes at their secret underground base. During the Battle of Central Park, in which the combined forces of Earth's superhumans fought the main Skrull army, Kate was seriously wounded by one of the Super-Skrulls and taken to a nearby hospital. Clint Barton used her bow and arrows to continue the fight. Kate survived and made a full recovery. After the battle was won, she took part in cleanup operations.
During the Chaos Cascade crisis, Kate Bishop was turned to stone along with Hulkling, Patriot, Wiccan, and Speed, as part of the accidental magical effects generated by the Darkhold's sorcery.
Dark Dominion
When Norman Osborn became head of national security after the defeat of the Skrull army, Hawkeye and her Young Avengers encountered the eponymous group, inspired by the actions of Dark Avengers(Dark Avengers) Norman Osborn. The first meeting between the two teams ended in a fight, with Kate facing a heavily armed Executioner. When Melter's team attempted to gain spots in the real Young Avengers, Keith and Executioner fought together against a horde of robots unleashed M.O.L.O.T.om(H.A.M.M.E.R.). Unfortunately, Kate's problems with " Young Masters"(Young Masters) has just begun. The Executioner used knowledge of Kate's identity as blackmail to gain a place in the Young Avengers. Although she rejected Wiccan's offer to erase his memory, Kate remained very disturbed by the situation, feeling that the presence of the Young Masters was corrupting them and ruining their good intentions.
In order to make the Executioner begin to doubt her name, Kate and the rest of the Young Avengers staged a fake battle with the supervillain at a gala event where she was present along with the Executioner (in civilian clothes). In the evening, in front of all the news services, the Young Avengers burst into the reception, chasing a supervillain (in reality it was a Wiccan under an illusion spell). Among them was Hawkeye (actually Vision using a holographic disguise), who stopped to compliment Kate's outfit. The next day, when confronted by the ashamed and angry Executioner, Kate taunted him by saying that his mother was a supervillain, something he didn't even know. This, as well as many other disagreements between the Young Avengers and the Masters, led to the latter turning to Norman Osborn and his Dark Avengers for help, trapping the Young Avengers during their next meeting at the Invisible Mansion. During the ensuing battle, Hawkeye faced off against her evil Dark Avengers counterpart, Bullseye, and even held her own against both him and the Executioner at the same time, until the Executioner shot Bullseye for mentioning his mother. With the disappearance of the Young Masters, the threat of Kate's identity being revealed was reduced, and Hawkeye continued her adventures with the team.
The Siege and the Age of Heroes
When Osborn's forces began Siege of Asgard(Asgard), Captain America has united the New Avengers, Young Avengers and Secret Warriors to fight back against the tyrant. Kate was among the many who answered the call, and joined the combined forces of the Avengers as they came to the aid of Thor and the Aesir. When the Sentry, consumed by the Void, razed Asgard to the ground, Kate lost consciousness and was trapped under the rubble along with the Patriot. When their shelter began to collapse, they began to argue about how to get out; Kate's suggestion to use brute force or explosives clashed with the Patriot's cautious stance. In the end, their combined efforts allowed them to escape from the grave, but not before the Patriot kissed her in a fit of passion. Once safe and united with the rest of the team, the Young Avengers went on to fight Osborn's forces and the Darkness.
Following the events of the Siege, Kate was seen among the heroes celebrating their victory in Avengers Tower(Avengers Tower). Clint Barton later persuaded her to keep the Hawkeye moniker, even though he himself returned to the role. According to him, the world is currently big enough for two people with such a nickname.
Hawkeye. Street Avenger.
In this episode, Clint Barton fights crime on the streets beyond the attention of the Avengers, not alone, but together with his young protégé Kate Bishop of the now-disbanded Young Avengers ).

Clinton Barton was born in Waverly, Iowa. Orphaned in early age, Clinton, along with his brother Bernard, was sent to an orphanage, where he spent 6 years. After him, he joined a traveling circus group, where he was trained in fencing and worked as an assistant fencer. Trick Shot took the boy as his apprentice to teach him the skill of using a bow as well. After seeing the Iron Man suit in action one day, Barton began trying to emulate it by wearing flashy suits and using his archery skills to fight crime. However, during one of his first missions, he was mistaken by the police for a thief, resulting in him having to fight the real Iron Man.
Hawkeye returned to the Avengers shortly before the battle with Onslaught, where he seemingly died along with the other heroes. However, Franklin Richards managed to move them to a pocket universe, where superheroes lived a different life. Eventually they found out the truth and returned to real world. Hawkeye's hearing was also restored as Franklin Richards recreated the heroes in the new universe from how he remembered them.
Hawkeye accompanied the Avengers on their many adventures. He helped train Justice and Firestar to defeat Taskmaster and Albino. Hawkeye later left the Avengers to lead the first generation of Thunderbolts, freed from the influence of Baron Helmunt Zemo. Barton taught his students in his own style former comrade on command, Captain America, transforming the Thunderbolts into a single combat unit. He got hooked romantic relationship with Moonstone, whom he was a positive influence on. Later, Hawkeye and the Thunderbolts went to Hell to save Mockingbird's soul. They defeated Mephisto, but Clint was never able to find his dead wife. To obtain a pardon for the Thunderbolts, Barton allowed himself to be arrested. The authorities promised to nullify the past crimes of the Thunderbolts if the team members resigned, to which they reluctantly agreed. When Hawkeye was released from prison, the team members reunited to defeat Graviton. Some time later, Hawkeye handed over leadership of the team to Citizen B (whose consciousness was under the control of Baron Zemo) and left the team.
Scarlet Witch goes crazy and summons a ship of Kree warriors who arrive on Earth. During the battle, Hawkeye was seriously wounded and, deciding to help the Avengers before his death, goes to one of spaceships Kree and sacrifices himself to save his teammates.
When Scarlet Witch accidentally alters reality during the events of M-Day, Barton is resurrected with no memory of the events that occurred. When young mutant Layla Miller helps him and some other superheroes remember what happened, Barton is horrified by Scarlet Witch's actions and shoots her in the back with a bow and arrow.
When reality was restored, Barton was resurrected, although the New Avengers knew nothing about it. He found Doctor Strange, who offered him refuge until he came to terms with normal life. Contrary to the Doctor's advice, Barton went to Wundagore, where he found the Scarlet Witch, who had lost her memory of the past and, apparently without mutant abilities, lived ordinary life. They became close friends, but then Clint left her. Returning to the United States, Hawkeye learned of the death of Captain America. He confronted Iron Man, who then suggested that he take Captain America's identity, shield, and suit to preserve his legacy. Barton, inspired by the words of Kate Bishop, whom he had recently met, rejected Stark's proposal.
The New Avengers subsequently asked him to join the team. Barton agreed and went with them to Japan on a mission to rescue Echo. Leaving the Hawkeye identity behind, Clint Barton took on the name Ronin. Echo, who was the original Ronin, allowed him to use her old name. Clint then met Kate Bishop again and revealed his true identity, much to Kate's surprise. Impressed by Kate's skill with a bow and arrow, Ronin gave her permission to use the name Hawkeye.
Ronin was part of the New Avengers who traveled to the Savage Land after receiving Spider-Woman's message about the crash of a Skrull ship. Superheroes emerged from the ship, claiming that all this time they had been captured by space invaders. One of them turned out to be Mockingbird. Clint believed that she was real until Mister Fantastic activated the Skrull computer. At the end of the Secret Invasion, Clint was reunited with the real Mockingbird, who, as it turned out, had not died, but was being captured by the Skrulls.
Like Ronin and Hawkeye, Clint Barton does not have supernatural powers. All his skills are achieved through training. The best agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
As Ronin, Barton uses a suit that allows him to hide in the dark, as well as nunchucks and shurikens. Previously, as Hawkeye, he used various types bows and a quiver of arrows, special arrows, and he is also the only superhero who can effectively use Captain America's shield.
