“Our goal is to reach $2M to help build a brand spanking new wing for Julia’s House. There’s just ONE WEEK left to enter to win the chance to go to the premiere of 'Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron' with me. Click the pic and ASSEMBLE," said the “Avengers: Age of Ultron” star, according to a statement.

The movie is slated to release on April 24.
