Alien Spacecraft On The ‘The Avengers’ Set And More Explosions

Posted August 18th, 2011 by Dirk Van Tilborg

Still filming in downtown Cleveland, ‘The Avengers’ continue to blow things up and are now apparently battling aliens, according to The Plain Dealer.

Director Joss Whedon continues to destroy downtown Cleveland in his quest to recreate the epic nature of ‘The Avengers’ in comic book form. Now with the downtown looking like a war zone (Punisher pun intended), photos are surfacing that contain what looks to be a downed spaceship. There have been persistent rumours that the on-screen war is with the shape-shifting aliens the Scrulls. Thanks to ComicBookMovie.com this is the first real evidence that may corroborate that rumour.

‘The Avengers’ will continue filming in Cleveland through early September. You can go here for a list of dates and places per the shooting schedule.
