So hey, how 'bout Paul Bettany's lucky break?
I mean think about this. Bettany signed on in 2008 to do this tiny scrap of voice work for this silly comic book movie that nobody was likely to care about. "Sure, I'll do 8 lines of dialogue for a faceless computer in Iron Man...it'll cover rent for a couple of months..."
10 years later he's a main character in one of the biggest tentpole movies ever made. Why? Because a weird-ass writer's twist installed in the middle of a pretty shitty movie (Age of Ultron kinda sucks) took his voice work and stuck it into a live-action character. So now he gets to be Vision.
That's gotta be the best 'sure, why the hell not?' decision anyone's ever made, right?
