Marvel Studios first official open casting call for 'The Avengers'

Walt Disney Company's Marvel Studios is currently in pre-production on the upcoming superhero blockbuster film "The Avengers". The film will be directed by Academy Award nominated Joss Whedon, and shot in 3-D. Whedon also re-wrote a script that was originally written by scribe Zak Penn. There will be an official open casting call being held by Marvel Studios in Albuquerque, NM in late March 2011.

Marvel Studios Co-Presidents Kevin Feige and Louis D'Esposito, VP Development and Production Jeremy Latcham, Executive Vice President of Visual Effects Victoria Alonso, and Executive of Animation Development Joshua Fine will all oversee production for the studio. Jon Favreau will co-executive produce "The Avengers" under his Fairview Entertainment banner.

"The Avengers" will be filmed almost entirely in New Mexico, and will become the state's largest feature film production ever with an estimated budget surpassing $200 million. New Mexico has a 25 percent rebate program intended to bring major film and television productions to the state.

Marvel also chose New Mexico due to the close propinquity to Los Angeles, heterogeneous landscape and the fact that the studio recently enjoyed filming scenes for another film there - "Thor." The picture was originally slated to start filming in February, 2011 but Marvel Studio executives pushed the production start date back to April, 2011 to accommodate the change in filming location.

All of the main principal actors have been cast. There will still be casting for day players and extras, mainly in Albuquerque, Cleveland, and New York - where filming will take place starting April 25, 2011 and continue through late June, 2011. There will also be additional casting in Cleveland, Ohio and New York, the other two filming locations. Shooting will run through September 2010. The exact shooting dates for Cleveland and New York have not been officially released. Filming will also take place in Los Angeles.

"The Avengers" has a scheduled release date of May 4, 2012.

NOTE: The open casting call that was held in Santa Fe, NM on February 16, 2011 WAS NOT a Marvel Studios official casting call for "The Avengers," but was rather simply part of of New Mexico's Film and Media Day.
