The Korean release date for “The Avengers: Age of Ultron” has been confirmed, the film’s distributor said Tuesday.
The American superhero film, starring Robert Downey, Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson, among others, will make its way to local theaters on April 23. That is eight days earlier than the North American release date.
Some of the shooting for the “Avengers” sequel took place in Korea last April.
“I believe the cast will be visiting Korea soon to promote the film,” a Walt Disney Company Korea official said.
“Avengers: Age of Ultron” is based on the Marvel Comics superhero team, the Avengers, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. The film was written and directed by Joss Whedon.
