Ever since the first announcement that the beloved Marvel character The Vision would be joining the Avengers in the film's sequel, fans went wild with excitement, and more were further interested to know that it'd be Paul Bettany's net worth rising from taking on the role, even though he already played one character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Although unknown to many, for years Paul Bettany's net worth has been growing from appearing in the MCU, as the faceless voice helping out Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark; in fact, the "A Beautiful Mind" actor played the role of Iron Man's artificial intelligence butler J.A.R.V.I.S. from the very start, always unseen on screen.
A while back, Cinema Blend reported that, although Paul Bettany's net worth had seen a great increase from playing the artificial intelligence, he'd been in the back for a while, also committing to a number of projects - including his first try at directing in the 2014 film "Shelter," working with his wife Jennifer Connelly and fellow new Avenger Falcon, Anthony Mackie.
"It's very exciting for me, but everything is a double edged sword because I was playing J.A.R.V.I.S. for years," the actor said, speaking about how big an impact the Marvel Cinematic Universe character had on Paul Bettany's net worth. "My job was, I would turn up in a recording studio for 45 minutes, do all my stuff. And then they'd give me a huge bag of cash, and then I'd go home! But it turns out they found me out, and now they actually want me to do something!"
After being comfortable in the role he voiced for years and boosted Paul Bettany's net worth, the actor was faced with a much more challenging role in The Vision, quickly becoming a fan favorite - and even being deemed "worthy" of holding Thor's hammer and maybe even ruling Asgard!
Currently, Paul Bettany's net worth is listed as being $5 million in Celebrity Net Worth, after years working in various films such as "The Da Vinci Code" and "Firewall" - but it would seem it's about to boost up after he extends his participation in the MCU!
