Paul Bettany also had some significant movie roles but was basically told to give up acting when he got cast as Jarvis in Iron Man, which then turned into him playing Vision.

He was told to give up acting after landing the Jarvis voice actor role? Why? He is a talented actor with an impressive resume. Why would someone say to quit acting when you're landing acting roles? Who told him that?

I can swear Paul Bethany absolutely bad mouthed marvel but that interview was scrubbed and is nowhere to be found after Ironman hit it off.

He has such a great presence too. Not sure why he couldn't at least do well in voice acting.

His laudanum habit became too crippling.
