The teaser trailer for Avengers 2: Age of Ultron was recently released, suggesting a strong connection between Tony Stark and the villain. The film reunites old friends Robert Downey Jr and James Spader and may even lead to Iron Man 4. Warning Spoilers Below!
In the newly introduced film teaser trailer, we see Iron Man's helmet being forged into Ultron's head, leading many to believe that Tony Stark inadvertently brings the killer robot to life. In the comic universe, Ultron was the invention of Dr. Hank Pym a.k.a Ant-Man, however, it's already been confirmed that Ant-Man will have no part in the Avengers sequel, leaving Tony Stark as the best choice to fill the role. Kevin Feige, Marvel Studios President of Production, recently spoke with the Huntington Post about James Spaders role as the maniacal machine:
"Well, I think it will be more than a voice role--we'll be capturing his face and his body to create a whole performance. He's a very unique and incredibly exciting and unpredictable actor. And Ultron in the comics is a robot, but what's cool about him in the comics--and certainly how Joss Whedon is interpreting him for the movie--is that he is much more than just a robot. That he's infused with much character. And I don't want to say too much, but you can imagine James Spader will be very dynamic in his portrayal of this character...We did not hire James Spader to do a robot voice."
Feige spoke with Geek Tyrant earlier in the year about the further for Iron Man, dispelling rumors that there will not be an Iron Man 4:
"Well, no, I think people say that because we’re not developing Iron Man 4. Currently, as you may imagine, Iron Man is a big part of Avengers 2 and that’s what we’re focusing on and what Joss (Whedon) is focusing on. So where we go after that remains to be seen, but certainly,Avengers 2 being the next appearance, the next story line for Iron Man. Do I think there will be another Iron Man movie? Of course I do. Who will be in that movie and who will be a part of that movie? Who knows? And how far down the line will it be? Will it be right after Avengers 2, will it be a few years after Avengers 2? Who knows? For as advanced as we are in terms of the advanced planning that we do, we’re already looking out to 2015, 2016 and that’s further than most people look out. Beyond that, we’re still not sure."
