Welcome to PaulBettany.net, a tribute to one of the most talented actors working today. From the violent cruelty of Young Gangster, to the playful humor and charisma of Geoffrey Chaucer, to the subtlety and gentleness of Stephen Maturin, to the torment of Silas the monk, Paul Bettany has given one perfect performance after another. If you admire him as much as we do, you've come to the right place! This is an unofficial site run by and for fans. Please direct news, comments, and questions to DeeDee.

Paul is the voice of Jarvis in Iron Man film

April 29th, 2008

Check out the new full length trailer for Iron Man - because it seems the AI character ‘Jarvis’ is voiced by Paul. (Skip to 1:36 in the video - he says “Sir, the upgrade is complete”) Thanks to terraphim86 and blackrosesteph on the IMDB forums for the heads up!

Edit:  There’s a movie clip here that features Iron Man and Jarvis.  :D

Paul Birthday Project

April 23rd, 2008

Hey, guys! This is a reminder about the Birthday Project for 2008. In honor of Paul’s birthday on May 27, and in memory of Heath Ledger, PBnet will be giving a group donation to the David Wirrpanda project, a charity that Heath Ledger was closely involved with. Please help us by giving whatever you can - even if it’s just a dollar. Really, I mean that! And the person who gives the largest amount will receive a Paul movie of their choice on DVD (assuming it’s available in his/her region). Click here for more info about this project - or you can always click the button on the right side of the page. If you have any logistical questions about your donation, email Serina, our PBnet admin in Australia. She’s the one who will be officially transferring the money to the Wirrpanda Foundation. :D

BTW, if you contribute, your name will be included in the card I send to Paul, wishing him Happy Birthday from PBnet and telling him about our donation.  Click here to see the card I sent him in 2006 after our Soccer Aid fundraiser (and in that same album, other items from the fundraiser, including a thank-you note from UNICEF).

Hacker

April 11th, 2008

Some stupid hacker got into PBnet’s files and messed up a lot of stuff. I’ve fixed the main part of the site, but I’m still working on the gallery and forum as of this post. *sigh*

Update: As far as I know, everything is fixed now.  Please let me know if you come across any weird errors, especially on the forum, gallery, or wiki.

‘South Solitary’ looks more likely

April 3rd, 2008

According to this article, Australia’s Film Finance Corporation has funded South Solitary, the movie we posted about a while back, which would feature Maggie Gyllenhaal and Paul in a period romantic drama.  We’re guessing it would relate to the South Solitary lighthouse, an Australian landmark.  Sounds good!

Fotogramas scan

March 24th, 2008

Added a nice scan from the March issue of Fotogramas (Spain).  Thanks, Eider!

If you watch Paul items on Google news, you will have noticed that the Fahrenheit 451 rumors are circling again.  This sounds pretty unlikely to me, but it’s worth mentioning.

‘Bees’ finishes up in North Carolina

March 13th, 2008

The Secret Life of Bees has finished up filming, and the AP put out a general story and interview with some of the actors.  There’s a very short (pretty much worthless, actually) piece with a quote from Paul about playing another villain, and the longer story with the other actors is here.
