Marvel seems to have finally found its Vision and they didn’t have to look very far.
The Daily Mail and Variety are reporting that the actor most known to Marvel fans as the voice of Jarvis, Tony Stark’s nearly ever-present A.I. assistant, has not only signed on to play the android character but is already in training for The Avengers: Age Of Ultron.
In comics, The Vision is an synthetic android created by Ultron, an sentient evil robot, that in turn, was created by Hank Pym. Now, Pym, if you’re paying attention, is going to be played by Michael Douglas in Paul Rudd’s upcoming Ant-Man. In classic stories, The Vision eventually breaks from Ultron’s control and helps defeat him, and ultimately joins the Avengers.
That’s the simple version, anyway.
Speculation abounds as to how much of that lore will hold because it’s always hard to say what Joss Whedon and his team are cooking up. It is safe to assume Stark’s butler will be getting quite an upgrade.
Throughout the years, The Vision has a wide array of abilities including flight, direct interfacing with computers and technology, density manipulation, super strength and more.
The Avengers 2: Age Of Ultron starts filming next month.
