The Kick-Ass 2 star has now apparently worked out his publicity schedule for Gareth Edwards' Godzilla, meaning that he has now closed his deal with Marvel Studios to play 'Quicksilver' in Joss Whedon's highly anticipated The Avengers: Age of Ultron. Read on for details!
Aaron Taylor-Johnson was first rumoured to be in the running for the role of 'Quicksilver' in The Avengers: Age of Ultron back in June, but The Wrap has now confirmed that he closed his deal today to star in the sequel to the highest grossing superhero movie of all-time. The reason for the delay is that his shooting schedule for the Marvel Studios 2015 release overlaps with publicity commitments to Legendary Pictures and Gareth Edwards' Godzilla remake.

Johnson joins Elizabeth Olsen as 'The Scarlet Witch' and James Spader as 'Ultron' as new casting additions to the movie.
