So when Joss Whedon cast James Spader as the titular villain, we started to see what kind of complexity Whedon was going for.

Avengers: Age of Ultron is well into production, with some of the actors already shooting their scenes. But one new addition we have yet to see is Paul Bettany, who played J.A.R.V.I.S. in the first three Iron Man films and The Avengers. Earlier this year, it was confirmed that he would play The Vision in the upcoming Avengers sequel, and like James Spader playing Ultron, we don’t really know if this will be a voice role or a motion capture role. But in a new interview with Jimmy Kimmel, Bettany teases a little bit about his character upgrade, and what we can expect to see from him.

| Patton Oswalt’s ‘Parks and Recreation’ Filibuster To Become A Movie…Starring The Muppets?! |
 |

Disney is reportedly quite unhappy with the scathing reviews and middling box office of Muppets Most Wanted, the latest big screen outing of the late Jim Henson’s adorable felt creations. Thus they have announced today that the beloved characters will be taken in a completely different direction for their next feature film. The studio has decided to unite The Muppets with two of their most profitable franchises in adapting Patton Oswalt‘s epic filibuster from an April 2013 episode of the NBC sitcom Parks & Recreation. In the full nearly 9-minute video (which you can watch here below), Oswalt wove an amazing tale that combined the Star Wars and Marvel universes in one awe-inspiring adventure that would shatter the minds of geeks the world over. According to an unnamed spokesperson at the studio, Disney feels that this story could work, without undermining Star Wars: Episode VII and the various Marvel Studios projects in various stages of development.
