Paul Bettany: “I (The Vision) can do all sorts of things, but I’m not allowed to really talk about them and what we’re going to because there might be a Marvel agent in the room who will actually wrestle me to the ground and fire me. It’s very exciting for me but everything’s a double-edged sword because I was playing JARVIS for years. My job was I would turn up at a recording studio for 45 minutes, do my stuff, they’d give me a huge bag of cash and then I would go home. Now it turns out they’ve found me out and want me to actually do something."
