‘Avengers Age of Ultron’ synopsis points to origins of villain, role of twins

Avengers Age of Ultron wall poster first look at The VisionDisney has released a new official plot synopsis for Marvel’s The Avengers: Age of Ultron which outlines the Rise of the villain and how that connects to Tony Stark.

Ultron, an artifical intelligent being played by James Spader, appears to be a Stark product, like J.A.R.V.I.S., set forth to battle evil but misinterprets all humans as evil and the extinction efforts begin.  Stark attempting to solve the problem will likely evolve J.A.R.V.I.S. into a new creature, the hero known as The Vision, played by Paul Bettany.

The end credits of Captain America: The Winter Soldier teased the appearance of Baron Von Stroker and the twins, Scarlett Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) which will now manifest in the Marvel Universe. Both characters, offspring of the X-Men villain Magneto, become regular Avengers in the comic book.

This all points to a major team change as the franchise heads into “Phase 3” with Ant-Man, Doctor Strange films coming soon. Check out the full statement below.

The Avengers: Age of Ultron arrives in theaters May 1, 2015.

“Marvel Studios presents Avengers: Age of Ultron, the epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero movie of all time. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.

Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron stars Robert Downey Jr., who returns as Iron Man, along with Chris Evans as Captain America, Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk. Together with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and with the additional support of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury and Cobie Smulders as Agent Maria Hill, the team must reassemble to defeat James Spader as Ultron, a terrifying technological villain hell – bent on human extinction. Along the way, they confront two mysterious and powerful newcomers, Wanda Maximoff, played by Elizabeth Olsen, and Pietro Maximoff, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and meet an old friend in a new form when Paul Bettany becomes Vision.”
