Which is the reason actors who work on multiple films at once do not work on multiple big-budget films at the same time.

In fact, I'm sure a lot of actors would love to work on multiple films at once (both for the experience and the money), but I would imagine that scheduling usually prevents this.

Besides, I don't think Marvel or Disney are that desperate for Avengers 2 that they would burn bridges with the actors and crews just to have a turnaround in two years. Not when they already have plans in the works for IM3, Thor 2 and Cap 2.



The Deathly Hallows films were different, as it was two halves of one long story. So basically it was the equivalent of one 4-hour-long movie instead of two separate films (with separate story arcs). Mostly it's due to the change in format. Very few people would want to sit through a 4 hour film, but will happily sit and read a 700-page novel.

The same thing is true for the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Technically it's all one book/movie, but it was broken up into three parts (which was originally due to a suggestion by Tolkien's publisher). Breaking Dawn is another example of one long narrative broken into two films due to the change in medium.

If they filmed Cap and the avengers at the same time they would be dealing with one actor. Only one would be in both films....maybe two if you count fury.

Cap and Fury.......its not like the rest of the Avengers would show up in Cap.
