At a recent event Joss Whedon let slip some important news about Avengers 2.
When asked why The Avengers should worry about Thanos, Whedon teased this:
"Well, Thanos is more powerful. He is so powerful, he is not someone you can just trot out and punch him. Like he did in the comics, you want him to be threading through the universe and to save the big finale for the big finale. He is definitely a part of what I've got going on. The thing about the Avengers is that they are very powerful, but they're not very stable. So, there will definitely be some people that will shake them up in the next installment. I’ve got these two characters, two of my favorite characters from the comic book, a brother-sister act. They’re in the movie."
Whoa.
If this is true, and not an instance of Whedon screwing with us, then all signs point to the inclusion of Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch – a brother/sister duo long associated with the Avengers.

Yes, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch are mutants but they have been associated more with The Avengers than with the X-Men.
Does this mean there might be a X-Men/Avengers joint venture in the future? Only time will tell.
Dr. Marvel. Over and out.
