Ultron is one of the most complex villains the Marvel Universe has come across, so for him to appear in the upcoming Avengers: Age Of Ultron could change the way we see our heroes now and in Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Opening on May 1, 2015, Avengers: Age of Ultron stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, Mark Ruffalo, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Thomas Kretschmann.
