10 MORE Actors Who Played Multiple Roles In The MCU

Paul Bettany has the honour of portraying three pivotal characters in the MCU. In Iron Man, he provided the voice of Tony Stark's interface unit, Jarvis. Jarvis was a human butler in the comics but the Marvel bosses reworked him into a disembodied AI so he wouldn't come across as a knockoff of Batman's Alfred.

However, Bettany got the chance to physically be a part of the Marvel franchise in Avengers: Age of Ultron. When the Avengers learned Ultron built a synthezoid body to help him destroy the world, they placed Jarvis' mind in it to stop the malevolent robot from using it. Once Jarvis entered this body, he adopted the identity of Vision. Bettany continued to play the Avenger android until he was killed in Avengers: Infinity War.

Or so it would seem. During WandaVision, Wanda resurrected Vision with her magic while scientists at S.W.O.R.D. created a physical copy of him. So, Bettany got the chance to play, not one, but two Visions!

Even though Wanda's Vision died (again!), he transferred his consciousness into the other Vision, guaranteeing Bettany will return in the role in the future.
