'Avengers 2: Age of Ultron' cast update: New Avengers to be named

Marvel's "Avengers 2: Age of Ultron" is weeks away but that doesn't mean that rumors will cease. And while many of you may have heard of the Marvel heroes set to appear for the said movie, the latest word out is that the new Avengers roster will be made official at the end of the Ultron.

Just like in the comics, expect the Falcon, Scarlett Witch, The Vision and War Machine to join the main core as led by Captain America (Chris Evans) and Black Widow (Scarlett Johanson).

Should this rumor be true, the next question in Marvel fans' minds is on whether they will appear with Cap and Black widow in "Captain America 3." Much as we would want to confirm that, all that remains in the air for now.

Speaking of Scarlett Witch, whatever happened to Quicksilver? From the looks of it, Quicksilver may end up as one of the casualties and be killed while trying to protect one of the Avengers. On who that could be remains secret for now. Scarlett Witch? Unconfirmed.

And the rest of the core?

Well, Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) is expected to take the side of the government as many may have already read by now. It remains to be seen where Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner).

Thor (Chris Hemsworth) could play neutral since he can always choose not to get involved in the Civil War and go solo or back to Asgard.

Bruce Banner aka The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) is another Avenger who may opt out, seeing that in the comics, he was in and out of the team anyway.

Be reminded that all these are rumors and until Marvel gives the official word, some (if not all) could be true or false. We will know in a couple of weeks!
