New ANT-MAN & AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON Details On Villains, Costumes, Powers And More

The folks at Joblo have posted another round of spoiler tidbits not just for Avengers: Age of Ultron, but also for Marvel Studios' other 2015 movie, Ant-Man. There is also some Star Wars: Episode VII info, which you can read in the source link, but below you can find out a wide range of Marvel-lous details from the main villain in Ant-Man to the main setting in The Avengers sequel. Obviously you should proceed with a spoiler warning, but nothing below is too revealing about either film's plot.

Story begins with Scott Lang being a thief and single dad who has fallen on hard times and one day breaks into Hank Pym's apartment and steals the Ant-Man suit.

The main villain's name is Darren Cross who, in the comics, runs Cross Technological Enterprises, a competitor company for Stark Industries and Oscorp. His cousin is the villain known as Crossfire. It's unknown if this role will be played by Patrick Wilson or Corey Stoll. He will have a suit with a similar feel to Ant-man's but more miltary style, yellow and black in color, and with a tendril-looking apparatus coming off it's back (like with Agent Venom). It's to note that in the comics Cross looks more like a pink Hulk, so there may well be some merging of attributes from other characters for this role or multiple villains at that.

The ANT-MAN suit will be much more elaborate than we've seen so far with the helmet being able to open and close much like Iron Man and an assortment of red lights all over the suit, again in "TRON" fashion. The helmet eyes will also glow red when closed. It's said to be a much more complex and futuristic suit than we've seen so far.

Ants (the actual insect) are the main ally and superpower for ANT-MAN in the film. Lang will speak to the ants via his helmt, just as in the comics, which is said to be a special element to the overall story.

Avengers: Age of Ultron

According to Kevin Feige, the new Avengers Tower is the largest ever for a Marvel film, featuring a large landing platform and garage for the new Quinjet within a large space that is full of windows, screens, and "techno stuff" but "really chic" with a lab directly in the middle where Stark and Banner work together.

The Quinjet redesign features more chairs to accommodate all Avengers, much like the X-Men's Blackbird. The overall design is less military and more sleek with a bigger array of weaponry.

Black Widow's costume update will feature not only the previously reported batons, but her suit is said to be more "TRON-style" in nature with blue lights and electricity around the suit. Her enemies will now receive electric shocks or a "widow's sting" when she hits them, giving her more of a "superhero" edge amongst her super-powered counterparts.

As reported before, Ultron will be more than just a helmet, with his full face being articulated, including the mouth. All movements from James Spader's face are used to bring more personality to the villain. The suit mock-up is reminiscent of the weapon that Agent Coulson used to shoot Loki in THE AVENGERS, which was made from the parts of the defeated Destroyer in THOR. The suit is said to have a "red firelight underneath, giving him a kind of 'Balrock' effect from LOTR

Ultron will have an army of drones that are similar in appearance to himself, minus the glowing red "energy" effect.

Similar to other reports, The Vision will be 100 percent Paul Bettany with his face and body all in metallic form, very shiny with gold, red, and green (as well as the yellow cape).
 
If you are the average person who doesn't know any better, just going off the trailers, you would have no idea that Guardians of the Galaxy is connected to the overall Marvel universe and story. It just looks like a spin-off, stand alone movie from Marvel, or like one of the Fox/Sony Marvel movies.
 
The description of the badguy sounds like the yellow jacket costume and that avengers 2 tower design has me hyped as hell. Black widow getting some new gear is nice as well glad they are keeping the electric effects.

It's supposed to be seen that way. They've kinda said that it won't tie into the rest of the Marvel movieverse until Avengers 3.

 
im sorry but that guardians of the galaxy movie looks corny to me. Its full of corny humor and characters I know im not gonna even care about

 
Lol bruh the tesseract was the space gem. Idk how many times it's been ssaid in this thread time and time again. Kevin Feige has stated this.

People get confused because the Tesseract had nothing to do with space at all. Everything related to it had to do with powering things. The Aether, on the other hand, was able to teleport people all over the place. So, it really makes no sense to have the Tesseract as the space gem and the Aether as the power gem instead of the other way around. Also, I'm not saying anyone is wrong, but people keep saying this person said it and that person said it, but no one has actually provided the source. I may have missed it though.

This is the source I've seen, but based on this, it's just Feige talking. They haven't put it in the canon yet, so there is the possibility that the identities of the gems could change before they are actually implemented.

I never said he used the tesseract on Selvig and Hawkeye. Loki's staff contains another infinity gem apart from the tesseract which can be seen in the Winter Soldier mid-credits scene.
