Scarlett Johansson makes shocking confession about ‘The Avengers’

Scarlett Johansson recalled how the filming of The Avengers was chaotic and not glamorous at all.

Johansson, who made her debut in Marvel as Black Widow in Iron Man two years prior to sixth film of MCU, revealed the chaotic and confusing filming process of it.

During the interview with Vanity Fair, the Under the Sun star said, "When we made the first 'Avengers' none of us knew what the potential would be."

Listing down the MCU hit films, she went on to say that Iron Man "was massively successful" and so was its sequel. Then came Thor, whose "character felt like it was from a completely different universe." Meanwhile, Captain America movie had its own different theme and "identity as well."

Hence, while filming The Avengers with all the characters including Hulk and Hawkeye, "it just felt like a big mess to be honest. Even on the set it felt crazy. We all looked insane."

"What are we doing? I don’t think anybody knew if it was going to work or not besides Kevin Feige and Joss Whedon. The cast had blind faith in them," she added lauding the president of Marvel and director of The Avengers.

Johansson revealed that it wasn’t until the cast filmed the iconic moment where the camera spins around the superheroes as they prepare to fight that she realised the great potential of the film.

"I remember the scene where we all are in that 360 of the characters together," she said. "That was the moment where we all thought this maybe could work. It felt powerful."

The Avengers was released in 2012 gaining massive critical acclamation proving the studio's plan to create an interconnected universe of movies could actually work with moviegoers.
