Captain America will rejoin The Avengers for Age of Ultron, but Steve Rogers will have more on his mind than Tony Stark's wayward science project.

Fresh from the battle against HYDRA and the Winter Soldier, Caps (Chris Evans) would rather concentrate on the search for Bucky (Sebastian Stan) than take on another battle to save the world. Much to his chagrin, Steve will understand that taking down a murderous robot is more important than tracking down his old friend.

"The fact is, Ultron is a clear and present danger and Bucky's in the wind," said Avengers 2 writer/director Joss Whedon, according to Nerd HQ. "We do mention the fact that that is [Captain America's] primary thing, but he is also working with the Avengers, too. We're not ignoring it, but he definitely has to deal with a mad eight-foot robot, because that's one of those things, you put it off and it just gets worse."

It looks like Caps won't get a chance to check on Bucky until after Ultron is just a pile of rusted metal. Considering the hero's broken shield that was debuted at the 2014 San Diego Comic Con, his newest battle may be a lot more difficult than his last.
