So will the star of box office smash The Avengers, which is expected to gross $1 billion worldwide this weekend, be on diaper duty? Possibly--if he can find time between promoting Avengers and Snow White and the Huntsman, which is set to be released June 1. And after years on the shelf, the actor is gearing up for the release of Red Dawn, set to hit theaters this November, where he plays the lead character alongside Friday Night Lights' Adrianne Palicki and The Hunger Games' Josh Hutcherson.
