"The no-brainer news of the day"
Here's the "no duh" news of the day: There will be an Avengers 2.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Disney CEO Bob Iger has confirmed that the sequel will come after the already in the works Iron Man 3, Thor 2 and Captain America 2. The exec was talking to analysts about Disney's quarterly earnings when he made the announcement.
Who Should Join The Avengers 2?
Of course, anyone who has been following Marvel Studios' plans knows that Avengers 2 has been more or less a given. So here's where we stand: Iron Man 3 and Thor 2 both hit in 2013. Cap 2 comes in 2014. And Avengers 2 will be coming… as soon as possible, one would expect, considering the record-breaking box office of Earth's Mightiest Heroes this past weekend. That said, Iger gave no specific timeline for Avengers 2 today.
