Aaron Taylor-Johnson officially confirmed to play Quicksilver in Avengers 2

It's now officially confirmed; Aaron Taylor-Johnson will indeed play the character of Quicksilver in the upcoming "The Avengers: Age of Ultron" although the actor really made no secret of the fact that he was in ongoing negotiations to join the ensemble of the movie. Initially, there was concern over whether the filming schedule of Age of Ultron would conflict with Taylor-Johnson’s promotional duties on Godzilla, which opens next May.  Now, things have patched-up well and the actor will be fighting alongside the Avengers and the newcomers which include Elizabeth Olsen who will play Quicksilver’s sister Scarlet Witch and James Spader who will be playing the pic’s baddie, the titular evil robot Ultron. "The Avengers: Age of Ultron" is scheduled for release on May 1, 2015.

The sequel to the 2010 black comedy superhero movie Kick-Ass is now well into production and will start shooting September this year. Aaron Johnson confirmed that he would reprise his titular role in the sequel. Chloë Grace Moretz who plays Hit-Girl and Christopher Charles Mintz-Plasse who plays the Red Mist are expected to reprise their roles as well. On the other hand, director Matthew Vaughn (who still acts as producer for the sequel) will be having his hands full on the sequel to the successful X-Men: First Class but he has chosen Jeff Wadlow, who also co-wrote the script along with Vaughn, to direct Kick-Ass 2. The sequel will maintain that Hard R rating.
