D’Arcy will play Howard Stark’s butler, Edwin Jarvis! J.A.R.V.I.S., fans of Marvel’s Cinematic Universe will recall, is the name of Tony Stark’s A.I. program, voiced by Paul Bettany. That character, who made his first appearance in 2008’s Iron Man is, in turn, based on the Edwin Jarvis of the comics, who works in the Avengers mansion as a butler. It sounds like D’Arcy’s Jarvis is going to, at some point, leave quite an impression on a young Tony Stark!
