This morning, Marvel dropped a special new baddie-centric poster for Avengers: Age Of Ultron, which features Ultron, the evil mechanical tyrant, standing in what appears to be an industrial workshop.
Posing with his back to us, this type of stance has often been employed when showcasing the exemplary derriere of Scarlet Johansson’s Black Widow. So, it’s a pleasant change for synthetic individuals to now be subjected to the obligatory “butt shot” as well.
All jokes aside, the image offers a close-up look at the movie’s main baddie in a drab, gun-metal grey environment. In comparison to all the other Avengers character posters to have arrived in the last month, Ultron’s is the only one captured in a different location. Whether that means anything significant or not though remains to be seen.
Avengers: Age of Ultron opens in the UK on April 23, and in US theaters on May 1.
Marvel Studios presents “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” the epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero movie of all time. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.
Marvel’s “Avengers: Age of Ultron” stars Robert Downey Jr., who returns as Iron Man, along with Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Mark Ruffalo as Hulk and Chris Evans as Captain America. Together with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and with the additional support of Don Cheadle as James Rhodes/War Machine, Cobie Smulders as Agent Maria Hill, Stellan Skarsgård as Erik Selvig and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, the team must reassemble to defeat James Spader as Ultron, a terrifying technological villain hell-bent on human extinction. Along the way, they confront two mysterious and powerful newcomers, Pietro Maximoff, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Wanda Maximoff, played by Elizabeth Olsen and meet an old friend in a new form when Paul Bettany becomes Vision.
