Paul Bettany was featured in last year’s hit Iron Man as the voice of Tony Stark’s electronic manservant, Jarvis. Now, that production on the sequel has wrapped, IGN thought it was safe to ask him about his part in the movie. The weird thing is, Bettany has yet to record his lines for the film and even forgot that he was in the first one.
Creation, a biopic centering on the life of naturalist Charles Darwin, has been released in the United Kingdom. Unfortunately, its been a long and hard journey to find distribution in the U.S. despite the film’s stars Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly. Many have speculated that a movie that focuses on Darwin, will be too controversial for a country so heavily influenced by religion.
A few photos from the set of Scott Stewart‘s Priest have hit the net. Actors Paul Bettany and Cam Gigandet were captured in full costume while filming the supernatural-western. Over at JFXOnline, they’ve posted a few behind the scenes images of these two between takes.

Over a Collider they just released a ton of photos from films that will be premiering over at the Toronto Film Festival. The first batch of photos that we are posting are from two upcoming period pieces. The first is Creation starring Paul Bettany as Charles Darwin and Jennifer Connelly as his religious and yet faithful wife. The second is Bright Star starring Ben Whishaw as John Keats and Abbie Cornish as his inspiration for his poem (you guessed it) “Bright Star.”

Finally the trailer that we saw weeks ago at Comic-Con (read our first look) for the upcoming religious epic Legion has been released and it looks absolutely amazing. The film centers on the archangel Michael (Paul Bettany) and his journey to protect a young woman (Adrianne Palicki) and her unborn child. The trailer is just as creepy as it is beautiful.
The best part about this trailer is that, even though Doug Jones is assisted by special effects, we finally get to see his face on screen! Jones’ is known for playing almost every interesting animal-like creature in Guillermo del Toro‘s films, such as Pan in Pan’s Labyrinth, Abe (the Fish-Man) in Hellboy, and many more.

Paul Bettany is Charles Darwin in the upcoming film Creation, and thanks to Empire Online we have an exclusive look at the Darwin biopic for you. I couldn’t be more excited about this film — the cast is amazing, and the props and costumes seem extra original not to mention that the story is based on one of humankind’s most historical and controversial figures. (Take a look at the Creation trailer.)
The photos below show Bettany as Mr. Darwin, Jennifer Connelly as his religious wife Emma, Martha West as their daughter Annie and Jeremy Northam as Reverend Innes.

An official website has been launched for the upcoming adaptation of the Tokyo Pop comic, Priest. The film will star Paul Bettany (Legion) as the title character, along with Twilight‘s Cam Gigandet. The film’s story ” is set in a world ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampire and follows a warrior priest who turns against the church to track down a murderous band of vampires who have kidnapped his niece.” The following image has popped up on the official Sony website for the film, and was also shown at the tail end of the Legion Comic-Con panel last weekend.

We finally got to see some footage from Scott Stewart’s upcoming religious epic, Legion. I hadn’t heard much about the film besides the fact that Paul Bettany would be playing an angel, and Doug Jones would just be playing creepy……again. Either way I was excited when the cast came out to introduce the film. They showed the first official trailer which literally blew me away!
