Avengers News!

From Yahoo Movies: Watch Out, Avengers! 'Age of Ultron' Gets Another Bad Guy



Ultron, the super-powerful robot/artificial intelligence/whatever he ends up being, won't be the only formidable foe that Earth's Mightiest Heroes must face in 
"The Avengers: Age of Ultron".

Thomas Kretschmann, star of TV's "Dracula," has been cast as another antagonist in the comic book sequel...Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker, a high-ranking officer of HYDRA, the organization run by Red Skull (Hugo Weaving) in "Captain America: The First Avenger" (2011).  Word has it that Von Strucker will somehow be linked to two new members of the superhero team, Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen).

In the comics, Von Strucker has a healing ability similar to Wolverine's that allows him to cheat death time and time again. We hope the Hulk smashes him against a wall a few times to test the limitations of that power.

It's not really a superhero movie unless there's more that one bad guy!
