A Vision in Vegas:

• Bettany, a British actor known for his wide range of roles in films like The Da Vinci Code, A Beautiful Mind, and Master and Commander, had a small but important role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), voicing Tony Stark's AI assistant, J.A.R.V.I.S.
• Starting with Avengers: Age of Ultron, Bettany moved from the voice role to physically portraying Vision, who is essentially a blend of J.A.R.V.I.S., the Mind Stone, and synthetic biology.
• Bettany brought the role to life using motion capture, as well as on set in makeup, reprising the role in the MCU in more movies like Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and the Disney+ series, WandaVision.
• We can expect to see more of him in the upcoming series, VisionQuest.
