As fantastic looking as The Avengers was, it could have been very different. It’s common in the movie world to have designers create mock-ups of what the movie might look like long before we actually see it on the screen.

Lucky for us, Marvel has released the images below to give us a small insight into how the film-making process worked behind the scenes of this summer’s biggest movie. It’s quite a treat. We can see Bruce Banner get a lot more hands-on with The Cosmic Cube than we saw on screen. A lethargic Loki relaxing in his prison cell, and an alternative angle on that awesome battle scene between our 3 heroes, Iron Man, Cap and Thor.

The Helicarrier is featured pretty prominently too, showing the amount of detail and commitment that went into bringing it to life. Awesome stuff.Check these out and get excited for The Avengers all over again!
