Elizabeth Olsen

Olsen is one of the new faces on in Avengers: Age of Ultron, where we will be introduced to the character of Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch for the first time.

Whilst attending a Meet the Filmmakers event at the Apple Store in London, the actress was asked about her involvement with the project, going on to say: "I guess I'm allowed to talk about that now."

However, the actress did not expand on her role in the film nor has there by any word from the studio about her involvement in Civil War, which starts filming in a fortnight.

Civil War is the third solo film for Captain America and will see Chris Evans return to the title role - this will be his fifth film as Captain America.

An all-star supporting cast has been assembled as Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr, Jeremy Renner, and Anthony Mackie will be back as Black Widow, Iron Man, Hawkeye, and Falcon. This will be the first time that we have seen both Iron Man and Hawkeye in the Captain America franchise.

Daniel Bruhl is one of the new faces on the cast list, while we are going to be introduced to Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther before he goes on to star in his own solo film.

Civil War will see Anthony and Joe Russo back in the director's chair for their second Captain America film - they duo steered The Winter Solider to box office success and critical acclaim last year. The siblings have also been announced as the new directors of Avengers: Infinity War - the two part movie that will hit the big screen in 2018 and 2019.

As for Olsen, Age of Ultron will be the first time that we have seen her on the big screen since Godzilla last summer. The movie will see her reunite with Godzilla co-star Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who takes on the role of Quicksilver in the new film.

Avengers: Age of Ultron looks set to be one of the biggest films of the year and could go on to rival Avengers Assemble as the highest grossing Marvel movie yet.

Avengers: Age of Ultron is out now. Captain America: Civil War is released 29th April 2016.
