Avengers: Age of Ultron is truly shaping up to be the movie that fans are expecting it to be, and that is AWESOME. Tonight Deadline is reporting that actor Paul Bettany has joined the cast,  well I should say gaining ANOTHER role, as the android The Vision. In the comics Vision is a member of the Avengers but was originally created by Ultron to destroy Hank Pym and The Wasp. Eventually the Avengers are able to convince Vision to turn against his master and embrace his more human-like qualities. Later in the Avengers continuity he actually marries the Scarlet Witch, who is played by Elizabeth Olsen in the upcoming film. Bettany has been in a few previous Marvel films as he is the voice of JARVIS, Tony Stark‘s AI assistant. It will be interesting to see how The Vision is manifested in the film, and I am really looking forward to what kind of role really has when it comes to Ultron and everything involved! Previous actors rumored for the part have been both Vin Diesel and Clark Gregg, I was holding out hope that Agent Coulson would be The Vision but now my nerdy fantasies have been laid to rest.
