'Avengers: Age Of Ultron' Synopsis Hints At Vision's Origin

Very few people have seen footage from Avengers: Age of Ultron, but there has, of course, been rampant speculation about what the film entails. Even a trailer won't give away the full picture, so we'll wait until May of next year for all the details. A new official Age of Ultron synopsis, however, now sums up the story nicely without giving too much away. There are, however, hints about the origin of Ultron, and what seems like a confirmation that Paul Bettany's character, Vision, is in fact an evolved version of his previous character Jarvis. (Which we've all known, but hasn't been stated officially by Marvel or Bettany.)

Stitch Kingdom has the following:

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 Evans as Captain America, Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk. Together with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and with the additional support of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury and Cobie Smulders as Agent Maria Hill, 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, Wanda Maximoff, played by Elizabeth Olsen, and Pietro Maximoff, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and meet an old friend in a new form when Paul Bettany becomes Vision.

There's nothing there about Ultron creating Vision, as he does in the original comics appearances of the character, but it's a pretty easy assumption that we'll see something along those lines next year.

Written and directed by Joss Whedon and produced by Kevin Feige, Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron is based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book series The Avengers, first published in 1963. Get set for an action-packed thrill ride when The Avengers return in Marvel's Avengers:Age of Ultron on May 1, 2015.
