The Countdown for "The Avengers: Age of Ultron" Has Begun

"The Avengers" stars

"Avengers: Age of Ultron" is scheduled for a May 2015 release, so it is a bit early to be talking about it. For true Marvel fans, though, it never is too early.

Quicksilver apparently is joining the others in "Avengers 2." He will be played, rumor has it, by Aaron Taylor-Johnson of "Kick-Ass." What is somewhat surprising about this is that Evan Peters of "Kick-Ass" has been announced to play Kick-Ass in "X-Men: Days of Future Past." Usually, they try to have the same actor play their characters in the different films, such as Scarlett Johansson playing Black Widow in both the "Iron Man" and "Avengers" films.

Quicksilver, of course, is the child of Magneto. His twin sister is Scarlet Witch, who has not been cast in "The Avengers 2."
