The upcoming Avengers: Age of
Ultron will feature some new character additions, including Thomas Kretschmann,
Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen and the great James Spader, who is
playing the titular bad guy, Ultron.
In a recent interview Marvel
Studios President Kevin Feige spoke about Spader’s work and wasn’t exactly shy
in praising the actor over his work. Feige also teased about some future
changes in the Avengers line up.
"Introducing the new
characters is going to be a lot of fun for the movie. That ever-changing roster
is very important in the Avengers comics, and so how do we start to play with
that [on the big screen]? Also our bad guy is great. I think people are going
to very, very excited to see what we're doing with the voice that Joss [Whedon]
is bringing to life with James Spader for Ultron. We love Ultron from the
comics, and have always loved Ultron, and at no point do we want him to just be
a robot. We want him to have an extreme personality and attitude, and James
Spader is doing an unbelievable job. Again, for us it's always about subverting
expectations. Whenever you think you know what's coming next, we surprise
people or deliver it in a slightly unexpected way. And Spader is doing that with Mr. Ultron."
