Watch an extended trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron

Though the trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron was originally slated to debut, with much fanfare, during last night's episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Marvel's plan was derailed when a copy of the trailer leaked online last week. (Marvel responded by blaming the supervillainous organization Hydra and releasing a high-quality version.)

But despite the leak, the company found a way to reward those who tuned in to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. anyway: an extended version of the Age of Ultron trailer. This version begins with a light-hearted competition between the Avengers: Can anyone other than Thor lift Thor's hammer? The results speak for themselves:

It's a brief moment of warmth before the unyielding grimness of Avengers: Age of Ultron — so enjoy seeing the Avengers in happier times while you still can.
