Avengers: Age Of Ultron - 10 Minor Marvel Characters That Will Appear

4. The Vision

It's with confidence that Paul Bettany's first big role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe €“ having been the voice of Tony Stark's artificial intelligence JARVIS through all three Iron Man films and The Avengers €“ can be considered a minor Marvel character because, well, that's what he is in the comics, and it looks like the film will follow suit. Marvel have so far been keeping a tight lid on what exactly The Vision is going to look like in Age Of Ultron, with fans having to settle for tiny bits of concept art and LEGO figures. Chances are he'll look pretty much the same way he does in the comics, with the green-and-red colour scheme intact. Who is The Vision, though? Why, he's the nice version of Ultron (essentially). Originally he was a villain, created by the robot bad guy himself to do his bidding, before breaking out of that and joining the Avengers as a core member for a good long while. Scarlet Witch then fell in love with him, even though he was still technically a robot. It was weird.
