Apparently, via Cinema Blend, at this year's CinemaCon in Las Vegas, Paramount Pictures' presentation consisted of 20 minutes of new footage from both of Marvel's much-anticipated Captain America & Thor movies. Notably, in Thor's presentation, it apparently featured actual footage of Jeremy Renner portraying 'Hawkeye' in action. Read a vague description below at your own will.

HIGHLIGHT TO READ!

The scene we saw featured Renner as Hawkeye, working with the infamous Agent Coulson, played as he was in the Iron Man movies, by Clark Gregg. The scene features Hawkeye using his famous bow and arrow and he has multiple lines, so while we?re talking about something a little more than a momentary cameo, there?s no way to know if his involvement will go any further than that one scene.

Jane and the others drive with Thor to the location, which has now been taken over by S.H.I.E.L.D. who have built a makeshift glass complex around the embedded hammer surrounded by entrance walkways with plastic tarp for walls. As they arrive, Thor seems to realize it's going to start raining and sure enough it does, so maybe he hasn't lost all of his powers. As he sneaks into the complex and takes on a bunch of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, Coulsen looks on and

orders a special agent into a crane high above the scene where it's revealed to be Renner, and he pulls out his bow and arrow and takes aim waiting for Coulsen's orders

Thor?: Chris Hemsworth got so muscular his costume wouldn?t fit

When Chris Hemsworth landed his first leading role as the title character in this summer?s ?Thor,? the actor wanted to make sure he was prepared. After all, his part in the Kenneth Branagh-directed adaptation of the iconic Marvel comic book will be the Australian native?s first major introduction to American audiences.

?I got the part and immediately started looking at the comic books, and the guy is 500 pounds or something and looks like Schwarzenegger. And I thought, ?OK, I?m not gonna get to that.? But I have to get bigger,? Hemsworth said, sitting backstage at the Colosseum in Las Vegas? Caesar?s Palace, where about 20 minutes of new ?Thor? footage was unveiled at CinemaCon on Monday night.

But Hemsworth took the training a bit too seriously. ?[The filmmakers] kept saying ?Yeah, get as big as you can, as big as you can.? And then I came back right before Christmas, just before we started the movie, and had a final sort of camera test and put the costume on and within a couple of minutes, my hands started going numb,? he recalled. ?And everyone was like, ?Yeah, that?s not cool.? And I started getting pins and needles and you?d touch the skin and the blood wouldn?t return to that area so quick. And I thought, ?OK, it doesn?t fit.? ?

The actor?s costume was then altered, and director Branagh instructed Hemsworth to ?pull back? on his intense workouts a bit. But in the pieces of the film unveiled to the crowd on Monday, the actor still looked bulked up in a major way.
