A mystery that has gripped comic book geeks and entertainment journalists alike has been solved: The mysterious "third woman" in the teaser trailer and scene-long clip from Avengers: Age of Ultron is South Korean actress Claudia Kim (aka Kim Soo-hyun), Disney has confirmed to BuzzFeed News.
After the release of the trailer on Oct. 22, the internet almost immediately launched into fevered speculation about who the third woman in a party scene with the rest of the Avengers could be. Many speculated it was Thor's girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman); some wondered if it might be Captain Marvel, aka Carol Danvers, a character Marvel Studios confirmed will get her own superhero movie in 2018.
Just as quickly, several eagle-eyed sleuths did zero in on Kim as a possible candidate.
Well, BuzzFeed News has officially confirmed that the actress in question is Kim, best known in South Korea for her work in television.
So the next question, of course, is who is Kim playing? The best bet is Suzi Endo, a scientist at Stark Industries who has connections to Ultron. Or it could be someone else entirely. Marvel and Disney aren't saying. Guess we'll just have to wait until the movie comes out.
