Jackson) of S.H.I.E.L.D. assembles a team of superheroes -- including Iron Man (Robert Downey, Jr.), The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Black Widow (Scarlett Johannson), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Captain America (Chris Evans), and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) -- to save the planet from Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and his army.
