20 Things You Need To Do Before Seeing Avengers: Age Of Ultron

20. Watch Blacklist

What better way for you to embark on your road to Ultron than by getting better acquainted with the voice behind the villain; James Spader. Although Spader is well known for his work in The Practice and its spin-off Boston Legal, it wasn€™t until he starred in The Blacklist as master criminal Raymond €˜Red€™ Reddington that he shot up the ladder of celebrity stardom. While Blacklist may not be the most unique show, it's vastly underrated, has an impressive cast, and really harnesses James Spader€™s charisma and chemistry with Megan Boone's Lizzie. More than enough reason to give it a try. Joss Whedon has even cited Spader€™s performance in Blacklist as being the key to him being the only actor offered the part of Ultron. His hypnotic, compelling and eerily calm voice made him the one and only choice. Ultron.
