50 free Avengers: Age of Ultron trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
This Avengers: Age of Ultron trivia quiz covers Joss Whedon's 2015 sequel, the eleventh film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The plot questions run from the raid on Strucker's Hydra base in Sokovia through Johannesburg, Hawkeye's farm and Seoul to the city lifted into the sky, and they cover the birth of Vision, the Maximoff twins switching sides, Pietro's death and the mid-credits glimpse of Thanos. The harder questions are about the making of the film: the working title, where Sokovia was really shot, the country that reimbursed a third of the production's spending, the character who was cut after test screenings, the heroine written into an early draft, the record trailer, the fight between Whedon and Marvel over the farm scenes, the composer swap, and the box office records it set and just missed. Easy questions suit anyone who has seen the film once; the expert ones will test even committed MCU fans. Every answer was checked against the film's Wikipedia article and its cited sources before publishing. For the wider universe, try our Avengers, Marvel and MCU quizzes too.

Q 17Why did Whedon skip the customary post-credits sequence?
He felt he could not top the shawarma scene
Whedon said he felt he could not top the shawarma scene that closed The Avengers, so the film has only a mid-credits Thanos tag and no post-credits scene.

Saturn
It was cut to squash rumours of a Planet Hulk movie, a storyline Marvel later used anyway in Thor: Ragnarok.
