British actor Andy Serkis says he has been offered a role in the "Avengers" follow-up "Avengers: Age of Ultron".

The "Star Wars: Episode VII" actor is already working on the sequel as a consultant through his motion-capture company The Imaginarium.

"The Imaginarium is the performance capture consultant and I'm playing a role in both 'Avengers' and 'Star Wars'," contactmusic.com quoted him as saying.

However, when asked if his face will appear in the Marvel follow-up, he explained: "I'm not at liberty to mention. But it's all the same to me. I've never drawn a distinction when playing a role, whether it be live action or performance capture.

"Acting is acting. It's just basically what you wear to the set that's different," he added.

"Avengers: Age of Ultron" will be released in Britain April 24, 2015, while "Star Wars: Episode VII" will hit the screens in December 2015.
