'Avengers: Age of Ultron' News: 'How I Met Your Mother' Cobie Smulders to Return as Agent Maria Hill VIDEO
Marvel fans are going to be a lot more of Cobie Smulders' Agent Maria Hill.
The How I Met Your Mother actress says she is definitely 'in' Avengers 2: Age of Ultron, according to the Calgary Herald.
After Smulders' appearance as Agent Coulson's (Clark Gregg) right hand man in last year's the Avengers, the actress made a surprise appearance in the pilot of ABC's Marvel's Agents of SHIELD. Slated to appear in next spring's Captain America: The Winter Solider, it looks like Smulders will be staying with Marvel through 2015.
"I hope I'm in Avengers 2," Smulders told the Calgary Herald. "I didn't get my invitation yet. Well, actually, they know I'm in it but they don't know to what degree I'm in it."
With Age of Ultron set to begin shooting in London this coming March, Smulders will defiantly be available for filming since How I Met Your Mother only has six post-Christmas episodes to film before it wraps for good.
While E! previously reported that Maria Hill will pop up several more time during the first season of Agents of SHIELD and could become a regular if season 2 comes to fruition, Smulders' hasn't said much about her post-HIMYM plans.
However, the 31-year-old actress is excited to see her character expand through Agents of SHIELD, Captain America: The Winter Solider, and Age of Ultron.
"I think we just haven't seen much of her. I think that's why I was so excited to do Marvel's Agents of SHIELD because I was like, 'Oh my gosh, I get to do like full talking walking scenes, this is so exciting!'" Smulders told Zap2It. "In these big Marvel movies, there's so many more important people than me in this film that I even I want to see more than I want to see myself on screen. I think it was just fun to get a moment to sort of talk in character, especially to talk to Coulson."
Avengers: Age of Ultron is due to hit theaters on May 1, 2015.
