"Marvel Studios presents Avengers: Age of Ultron, the epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero movie of all time.

If the synopsis is anything to go by, Avengers may go on a peacekeeping mission. Moreover, Vision is an old friend in a new form. The two new powerful forces, which will help Avengers avert the dangers spread by Ultron, include Wanda Maximoff, played by Elizabeth Olsen, and Pietro Maximoff, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson.
Paul Bettany will voice Tony Stark's digital assistant Jarvis. It is also said that Scarlett Witch, the sibling of Quicksilver and the first "X-Men" character to become the part of Marvel universe, will be played by Elizabeth Olsen.
Moreover, "Age of Ultron" is not based on the book by the same name. Director Joss Whedon said that they are doing their own version in the movie.
"[That's] not the case," Whedon told MTV, adding, "We're doing our own version of the origin story of Ultron....We were crafting our own version of it where [Ultron's] own origin comes more directly from the Avengers were already know about."
The cast of the movie includes Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Clark Gregg, Cobie Smulders, Don Cheadle, Elizabeth Olsen, James Spader, Jeremy Renner, Mark Ruffalo, Paul Bettany, Robert Downey Jr., Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson and others.
