Some recent footage from the Cleveland set of The Avengers, mostly showing Chris Evans battling dudes on top of cars and lots of police officers. Note, though, that there’re people in motion capture suits and a really weird looking weapon, which hint strongly that the film involves extraterrestrial baddies.
