Marvel's Cinematic Universe has seen countless actors come and go since Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) first told Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) about "The Avenger Initiative" in 2008's Iron Man. But seven years and 10 films later, audiences are finally getting their first look at one of the actors who has been there all along: Paul Bettany, who supplied the voice for Stark's artificially intelligent butler, J.A.R.V.I.S., in five Marvel films.
Early in Avengers: Age of Ultron, in theaters now, J.A.R.V.I.S. is obliterated by Ultron (voiced by James Spader), his consciousness scattered to the furthest reaches of the internet. But Stark can't let his longtime companion go, so he finds a way to reconstitute J.A.R.V.I.S. and channels the entity's energy into an Infinity Stone–powered synthetic body, which is how Bettany was reborn as Vision.
