…James Spader.
Marvel released this morning that James Spader will play the villain of their next Avengers movie.
I’m pretty excited by this casting. Spader is an excellent actor and he can bring the dark tone needed for a villainous killer robot. Even though Paul Betteny isn’t voicing Ultron (as previously rumored), I’m still going with the “Ultron is a rogue JARVIS” theory.
Avengers: Age of Ultron hits theaters May 1, 2015.
