Marvel Wants Aaron Taylor-Johnson For Quicksilver In ‘Avengers 2’

Kick-Ass star Aaron Taylor-Johnson may soon be taking on the role of another hero. Deadline has learned that Marvel Studios is currently courting the actor for the role of Quicksilver in Joss Whedon’s 2015 release, The Avengers 2. There are alleged scheduling conflicts that may prevent the deal from happening, but I’m sure hoping that things work out as I believe this is a fantastic casting choice.

X-Men: Days of Future Past director Bryan Singer recently revealed that he would also be using Quicksilver in his film. That role went to American Horror Story‘s Evan Peters, which is also a great choice. The Avengers 2 will also feature Quicksilver’s twin sister, Scarlet Witch.

What do you think of the news? Would you like to see Aaron in the role, or is there a better choice out there? The Avengers 2 hits theatres on May 1st, 2015!
