Marvel released news Wednesday, via Crave’s ComicBookMovie.com, that Thomas Kretschmann will play Baron von Strucker in Joss Whedon’s The Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Fans will have seen Kretschmann in Wanted, King Kong and the “Dracula” TV series. Apparently, Kretschmann has signed a multi-movie deal with Marvel, so look for more Baron von Strucker across the movie universe.
