We’re a little less than two months away from the debut of Marvel Studio’s follow up to its billion-dollar grossing juggernaut, Avengers: Age of Ultron! The marketing campaign is in full swing now with character poster reveals, TV Spots and now contests. Omaze and Robert Downey, Jr. are offering fans a once in a lifetime opportunity: attend the world premiere of the film with RDJ himself! We’ve got the details on that, plus the debut of the theatrical trailer – after the jump!
We’ve seen similar campaigns from Omaze before – most recently J.J. Abrams offered a walk-on role in Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. This time, Robert Downey, Jr. is offering the opportunity for one person and a friend to fly out to L.A. and basically experience what is would be like to live Tony Stark’s life, followed by the premiere of Avengers: Age of Ultron. All you have to do to be entered to win is donate $10 or more to Julia’s House, a children’s hospice dedicated to improving the lives of children with terminal illnesses.
RDJ himself can explain the amazing itinerary he’s got planned for the luck winner. Check out the video below.
In other Avengers news, Last week, Downey, Jr. posted on his Twitter the Iron Man character poster for Age of Ultron. He also included a cryptic message:
