11 Questions From The New Avengers: Age Of Ultron Trailer

6. Who's Attacking Iron Man?

There's a fair bit of action in the trailer, but it's all rather disconnected - aside from the Hulkbuster showdown there's no real guarantee moments edited in succession here will be in any way related in the finished film. A key example is this shot of Iron Man getting blasted by some red energy (it's all vague energy in the MCU). The immediately preceding shot is of Scarlett Witch doing her thing (whatever her movie universe "thing" is), suggesting there's going to be some rough and tumble when the twins are introduced. However, given the difference in location and (and this is getting very pernickety) style of the red energy, it seems to actually be part of a fight between Shellhead and Ultron, who's shown using some snazzy red, Palpatine-style lightning in the trailer. The location looks like it could be the HYDRA base where the twins were seen held captive in the mid-credits sting for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, suggesting there'll be a pretty exciting prison break.
