Avengers: Age Of Ultron - 8 Things You Need To Know About Paul Bettany's Vision

6. He Looks Pretty Much Like He Does In The Comic

Most of the characters Marvel have brought to the big screen are recognisable as their comic book selves, but with some small tweaks. Thor doesn't have the helmet with the wings, Captain America's outfit is a little more militaristic, and the Hulk doesn't always wear purple trousers (though mostly he does). In the same fashion, The Vision looks to be pretty similar to his comic book self. Granted they've cut out that huge and oh-so-seventies collar he was rocking in his early appearances, but everything else is spot on. The red, yellow and green colour scheme is a classic it's hard to get away from. He's most definitely recognisable as a robot, too. In the comics Ultron has at least tried to make him look human, even if he got a little too liberal with the primary colours. This new Vision has a bunch of noticeable joints and stuff, and it's not clear if Paul Bettany had a bunch of make up or was motion captured and made into a CGI character (like Ultron!)
