10 Awesome Ways Agents Of SHIELD Might Link To Avengers: Age Of Ultron

10. Villains Released From S.H.I.E.L.D. Prison

One of Ultron's abilities is likely to be technopathy - the ability to speak to and control technology. While this ability will obviously be utilised to control and communicate with his drone army, the likelihood is that he will also be able to compromise computers and security systems around the world. One of the consequences of that could be that prisons around the world become compromised - including any prisons still controlled by S.H.I.E.L.D. - and that could result in the release of countless criminals and villains who were being held in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s custody. If that happened, that would definitely be something Phil Coulson and his team would have to deal with, providing a direct link between the television series and the movie without actually having to go particularly over the usual budget.
