Director Joss Whedon has made it a point for all of us to recognize that 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' will introduce a whole new dynamic to the growing franchise.

Along with being introduced to a host of brand new characters, the movie plans to delve deeper into some of the signature ones by establishing them each as individuals.

In an interview conducted by SFX, while the director was still editing the film, he goes on to talk about the challenges awaiting some of the characters. He states:

"What drives this story is the idea power and connection, and how the more you have of one the less you have of another. And the idea of heroes and whether or not that's a useful concept. I know it seems like we've heard that before but I feel that this movie makes an argument that is worth listening to. It's about damaged people, because guess what I like to write about! And it's about trying to find some kind of connection, because the Avengers are the most isolated people in the world. They're different to everyone else. They're richer, or stranger, or they're monsters or they're gods. Not one of them is really a part of the world. And this movie kind of drags them back down to Earth a little bit, which is both painful and exciting."

Whedon also spoke on how he enjoyed the film after everything was basically said and done.

"Honestly, we screened the movie last night, and just to sit down and watch it, which is not something you really get to do at this stage... I was like okay, some of this is the bomb. Some of this is really really lovely. The actors are killing it, the sequences are exciting, the editors are amazing and Ben Davis, who shot it, has made it a work of art. There are some hardcore action sequences in this but what's really grand is how the characters play through those. It's always got to be about the people. Not just the smaller moments, where they're talking alone, but the way they're interacting during the action is really exciting for me. I'm a people person unless I'm in an actual room with people."

It's almost hard to imagine the director underwhelming any one element in the movie.

'Avengers: Age of Ultron' hits theaters on May 1st.
