I would hope they tried to NOT think of someone as a main character and make it actually about a team. I think, considering that plot, that Fury should probably get the most screen time and focus, though.
I'm thinking about it from a pure screenwriting perspective. There is always a main character -- even if a huge cast and multiple. (For example, Wolverine is the main character of the X-Men movies.)
UNLESS they make a true Robert Altman/Christopher Guest-esque ensemble film. They could do this. I would actually *love* to see them break formula and try.
Another question -- how does the team come together? They would do the New Avengers route where OMGCRISIS and everyone shows up -- and then the drama is how do they continue working as a team. Or they could actually "put together" a team, a la The Ultimates, where you need to go to everyone and recruit them. Then they woudn't actually gel together as a team until the Second Culmination Crisis. I'm dying to know. I really want to see the script. LOL.
