Paul Bettany Joins Han Solo: A Star Wars Story in Mistery Role
The actor who plays Vision in the MCU is the latest addition to the Han Solo movie.
Paul Bettany joined the cast of the movie, just as reshoots get close to an end. According to Variety, Bettany is set to take over the character played by Michael K. Williams, who had to leave the production earlier this year due to other commitments.
Director of the movie Ron Howard (who took over Christopher Miller and Phil Lord) was the one to share the news on his Twitter, sharing a photo of him and Bettany with the caption “the Outer Rim just got a little bit wilder.”

Paul Bettany Confirms Whether or Not Vision Will Survive Avengers: Infinity War
With one of the Infinity Stones smack in the middle of Vision’s forehead, many fans have feared he’ll be one of the casualties during Avengers: Infinity War.
Luckily, based on what Paul Bettany (who plays Vision) said, we might see Thanos remove the android’s Infinity Stone without killing him. Bettany confirmed he’s returning to Avengers 4 now that it has started filming.
According to Comic Book Movie, here’s what the actor had to say:
It felt like the biggest movie that I’ve ever made and will ever make, and we’ve still got to make the [next] one. It’s fucking crazy! I would come in, often at dawn because of the length of my make-up, and there would just be all of these twinkling lights. It looked like a town, but it wasn’t. It was where all of the trailers were. It’s massive! The call sheets are bananas. When you see the list of cast members, you’re like, ‘How is anybody else making a film in Hollywood, this year? How are they getting films financed? Everybody is in this!’
Then he added some insight about what is like to work in the movies:
[The Russos] are so great. They’ve got so much trust, from the cast and from Kevin Feige and Marvel, in general. They’re incredibly on top of the day, when you show up, and they’re very open to your input and collaboration. They were incredibly relaxed. It was a wonderful, relaxed set that was stress-free. It was a stress-free set.
Some fans have already speculated that Vision might turn human after the stone is removed, we’ll have to wait and see.
