During a roundtable discussion at today's Comic-Con Collider caught up with showrunners and writers Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) revealed that Howard Stark will have a butler and tutor named Edwin Jarvis who will be the inspiration of the JARVIS AI:
Question: Given how successful Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has been with its integration with the Marvel movies, what are you guys going to do on that level?
Stephen McFeely: What’s great is that we have the same bonus with Cap one, that we could do anything we want because we don’t have to tie into anything because we come before everything. Then we forced them to tie into us.
Christopher Markus: We’ll certainly have Easter eggs and even more than that. I think I can say, one of the characters will be Edwin Jarvis, who is Howard Stark’s manservant, who goes on to be a tutor to Tony, and therefore is the inspiration for the AI voice and all that. So it’s that kind of interconnectedness that should make peoples ears go … that’s the kind of reaction I want. That’s right.
