Something official from Disney has been released regarding the highly anticipated sequel to the 'Avengers' which was a record breaking hit. 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' is still a few months from being released, and we haven't seen a trailer yet (Unless you were at SDCC this year) but finally an official synopsis was released earlier today.

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.

Well....it doesn't give us anything we already didn't know. But I'm still amped to see this movie. Joss Whedon seems laser focused on these films and I trust he'll give us another great movie with an ever-expanding roster of characters.

Jackson, Thomas Kretschmann, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Colbie Smulders, Don Cheadle, Hayley Atwell, Stellan Skarsgård, Paul Bettany, Andy Serkis, Claudia Kim, and James Spader. It’s due to hit theaters on May 1st, 2015.
