For months now, just who will play superpowered siblings Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver in Avengers: Age of Ultron has been pretty much a foregone conclusion.
But actors in talks don't always become the actors who play the parts, so Marvel Studios has officially announced that Elizabeth Olsen and Aaron Taylor-Johnson are set to appear in the Avengers sequel.
Two of what are guaranteed to be the biggest comic book movies of the next two summers, X-Men: Days of Future Past and Avengers: Age of Ultron, will feature different takes on the same character.

For months now, Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been associated with a supporting superpowered role in Avengers: Age of Ultron, but Marvel Studios hadn't locked him down.
Now, however, it seems that the Kick-Ass star is finally on board to play Pietro Maximoff, also known as Quicksilver.

No, Iron Man most assuredly laser-pops some popcorn and settles down with Pepper Potts to enjoy a movie in the 1080p high definition splendor afforded by Blu-ray. He'll be firing up his arc-reactor-powered home entertainment system this week, because Iron Man 3 arrives on two-disc Blu-ray Combo Pack and three-disc 3D Blu-ray this Tuesday, September 24th.
Just because Avengers: Age of Ultron is considerate enough to declare its villain right in the title doesn't mean there isn't plenty of mystery surrounding the robotic menace.
In discussing the casting of James Spader as Ultron, loquacious writer-director Joss Whedon hasn't just given a bit of insight on what Spader is bringing to the role, but how the villain will be realized onscreen.
Less than a day ago, we reported a rumor that a familiar Marvel fixture would play the villain in Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Marvel Studios has put its foot down on that rumor by announcing that, in fact, the always excellent James Spader will bring Ultron to life in Joss Whedon's sequel to The Avengers.
Last week we learned that Elizabeth Olsen is in final negotiations to play Scarlet Witch in Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson has long been associated with the role of Quicksilver in Joss Whedon's sequel to the biggest comic book movie of all time.
