Aaron Taylor-Johnson Discusses Quicksilver in THE AVENGERS 2
Aaron Taylor-Johnson could very well end up playing Quicksilver in Avengers: Age of Ultron, which I think he's a great fit for. The actor is currently making the press rounds for Kick-Ass 2, so of course people are going to be asking him about his potential role in the film. In these interviews he talks a little bit about the character and what he thinks of Joss Whedon.
Here's what he told MTV:
"I think when it comes around and you're asking about 'Avengers 2' and Quicksilver and things like that, the thing is to think about that he's an abandoned child. Him and his sister are abandoned, they live in Eastern Europe, and if that's something that you can make work, then there's always... you gotta have something that you can relate to. So when it comes to that, then it's enjoyable. So I don't really care what it is you know."
He then had this to say about Whedon:
"Oh man, [Joss Whedon] is awesome! He's a real dude and I love what he did with the first Avengers. He had a real tough task to deal with and I think he put up brilliantly"
In a separate interview with Collider, Taylor-Johnson talked about Marvel Studios offering him the role,
"I feel really flattered and honored that they came to me for that role. I think he’s an interesting character and we’re just gonna keep going into that. I sat down with Joss, I think he’s awesome, I sat down with the guys at Marvel and they’re also great; I think it’d be interesting."
It will be interesting! I have no doubt that Whedon is going to once again deliver the awesomeness.
