10 Avengers: Age Of Ultron Surprises That Could Happen
3. The Vision And The Human Torch
The Vision is one of our favorite Avengers, and we cannot wait to see Paul Bettany bring him to life in Age of Ultron. But so far, details are very sparse on the characters role in the film. Bettany has been the voice of JARVIS in all three Iron Man movies as well as The Avengers, and given Ultrons technological-based abilities and use of Tonys armor in the trailer, seems likely that JARVIS is uploaded into the Vision. Possibly by Ultron to battle the Avengers, or possibly by Tony in a last-ditch effort to stop Ultron. The Vision was created by Ultron in the comics to destroy the Avengers. Ultron used two elements from Marvels past in the construction of the Visionfor the body, he used the inert body of Jim Hammond, the Golden Age Human Torch and a synthetic human. And for the mind, he used the recorded brainwaves of Wonder Man, who was also created to destroy the Avengers by Baron Zemo, but died trying to save the heroes (both the Human Torch and Wonder Man got better). Unfortunately we probably wont be seeing Wonder Man in this film. But one surprise we hope well see regards a background moment from Captain America: The First Avenger. At the Worlds Fair, there was a blink-and-youll-miss-it cameo of Jim Hammond as one of the exhibits titled THE SYNTHETIC MAN. Could we see that synthetic man appear as the basis for the Visions creation? We sure hope so!
