Jennifer Connelly's SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING Role Has Now Been Revealed - SPOILERS Ahead
It was recently confirmed that Jennifer Connelly would be popping up in Spider-Man: Homecoming, and now we know who she's really playing. It's not exactly a massive reveal, but mild SPOILERS do follow...
We already knew Jennifer Connelly had been cast in Spider-Man: Homecoming, but aside from her character's first name we had no other details on who she was actually playing... until now.
EW has revealed that the Academy Award-winning actress will actually provide the voice for the AI operating system in Tony Stark's souped-up Spidey suit, who Peter dubs Karen in the movie.
As you'll no doubt be aware, Connelly is married to Vision actor Paul Bettany, who was originally the voice of Stark's own Iron Man armor AI, Jarvis. A deliberate meta move by director Jon Watts? Certainly seems that way! “Yes, it’s Jarvis’ wife,” laughed Watts while chatting to EW. “It’s cool, right?”
It is indeed - though I must admit I forgot to even keep an eye out for Connelly in the film, and had no idea she was Karen.
Spider-Man: Homecoming is out in the UK and Ireland now, and hits US theaters on July 7.
