The second "blow" of Cobie Smulders’s tremendous popularity was in 2012 when the adaptation of the comic book The Avengers was released. The superheroes of all famous comics were combined into one film. The Canadian actress in the role of agent Maria Hill won the hearts of spectators, increasing the army of her fans dramatically. Later, the actress was engaged in the filming of the continuation of the Russo brothers' superhero thriller Captain America: The Winter Soldier and The Avengers: Age of Ultron. Cobie got her big break just months later when she landed the role of Juliet Droil in the ABC program Veritas: The Quest (2003). The series marked her first series role for television.
