Clark Gregg confirms that Agent Coulson does indeed have a much larger part here than the fiber did in any of his late appearance , and he put up an interesting analogy for how Coulson go into the Avengers team :
“ I had to pinch myself because I ’m not that jaded . I got to show up and put on the Coulson suit and I ’ve got enough lines that I have a poke , plus I get to do this awing script by Joss Whedon . I do n’t know how I got to be a part of it , I just experience very lucky about it . When you count at the squad it ’s made out of rock star , divas , and gargantuan muscles with superpowers so somebody has the job backstage at Lollapalooza to make them all play in the same concert and topnotch band — and that ’s what Agent Coulson does . ”

When asked about the shaping of the team itself , Gregg suggest this is what the various heroes were all fate to be a part of :
“ The thing about The Avengers that I think is clear from the trailer is that they ’ve spend a lifetime preparing for a moment like this . Whatever is coming down the thruway , everyone is consume care of line of work to the best of their ability . It may make some tensions but they ’re going to hit it head on . ”
He also throw out an anecdote of the first time he understand the Avengers together on set , which includes the telltale point — and I know this is just a massive , monumental spoiler — that Samuel L. Jackson will look intimidate and badass as Nick Fury :

“ It ’s a little hard to believe , coming from a supporting role that they retain beefing up and adding to new movies , that I would really take the air into that elbow room I walk into and see that collection of mass in their various versions or implausibly worked up neoprene . When I walk in the first thing I did was go , “ Oh my god ! Look at all these actor in costume ! ” But then you look at them a little nearer and you go , “ I just walked into a room with Captain America , Tony Stark … oh my god ! ” And then you go , “ That ’s Jeremy Renner and Robert Downey Jr ! ” Then all of a sudden Sam [ Jackson ] comes in and gives me a look and I ’m like , “ There ’s some big problems we ’ve got to take care of so permit ’s go do it ! ”
