While in attendance for the 2013 Saturn Awards on June 27, Avengers 2 executive producer Joss Whedon recently gave confirmation that the characters of Quicksilver and his twin sister Scarlet Witch would be appearing in the future blockbuster.

"[They're] a huge part of [Marvel's The Avengers 2]. I'm really excited about it. I don't know what they're doing and I'm determinedly not knowing. They'll do their thing. I have to do mine," he told Crave Online.

Whedon also spoke to the site about an abandoned Warner Bros. project that he was forced to scrap. However, the creative mastermind was quick to insinuate that he's well aware of his clout, which wouldn't leave him in dire straights.

"It's like grief. There's a period of anger where you're like, 'Hey! Remember all those times where I told you it would have worked? They believed me and it did! So now I'm going to get angry about stuff that I had pretty much dealt with. 'You do kind of want to have a slap-line of everybody you had previously worked for. But I'm luckier than most people, so you get over that," he explained.

Marvel's Avengers 2 is scheduled to hit theaters nationwide on May 1, 2015. Be sure to keep checking back for the latest scoops and spoilers on the highly anticipated sequel. A fan-made trailer of the movie can be viewed below.
