‘Avengers 2: Age of Ultron’ Gets New Villain Baron Von Strucker? Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver SPOILERS

Warning Possible Spoilers: Avengers 2: Age of Ultron is gearing up for production and rumor has it that the team may have a new villain to face. 'Captain America' baddie Baron Von Strucker might be goose stepping up to take on Steve Rodgers and the gang in the new movie. This news could also tie-in to the new characters, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.

If maniacal robots and intergalactic warlords were not enough for the Avengers to take on, then why not throw a Nazi into the mix. Latino Review is now reporting that HYDRA baddie, Baron Von Strucker, will appear in the upcoming Avengers 2: Age of Ultron.

The report also suggests that at the beginning of the film, Scarlet Witch and her brother Quicksilver will be working for Stucker.

In the comics, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver both started as villains. The characters also have a deeper connection to villainy. The twins are both the offspring of X-men big bad, Magneto.

However, the film's main villain is still James Spader’s Ultron. Marvel’s president of production and chairmen of chatty chat, Kevin Feige, spoke with Huffington Post about Spader’s role in the new film:

"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."
