Disney has finally set a date for VisionQuest, its upcoming Paul Bettany-starring series it describes as a conclusion to the WandaVision trilogy.
VisionQuest will debut later this year on October 14, Bettany confirmed during Disney’s recent upfront presentation (where we also got a launch window for Ahsoka Season 2).
Little is known of exactly what VisionQuest will be about, though its cast list and plot threads from other Marvel series lend a few clues. Vision was, of course, killed by Thanos back in Avengers: Infinity War — only to be revived by his beloved Wanda in WandaVision.
To cut a long story short, this new version of Vision was last seen flying off into the sunset — or rather, his own Disney+ spinoff. No further details on his location were offered in Agatha All Along, the first WandaVision spinoff show.
That said, Agatha All Along did introduce us to a grown up version of Billy Maximoff, played by Joe Locke, who was last seen headed off to find his family. Vision is his father (although the circumstances are all a bit of a mess) so perhaps we’ll see him pop up again here?
What we do know for certain is that James Spader is back as Ultron, the robotic supervillain last seen all the way back in 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, who sort-of created Vision with a sprinkle of hubris from tony Stark.
Vision will be pursued by Paladin, a bounty hunter played by Todd Stashwick who is focused on locating Vision, aided by an accomplice portrayed by Diane Morgan. Faran Tahir returns as Raza, the leader of the Ten Rings, a role he originally played back in 2008’s original Iron Man.
And in a fun twist, numerous Marvel Cinematic Universe AI characters previously heard only via voiceovers are also set to return, including Edith, Friday, and even Jarvis (portrayed once more by James D’Arcy, returning from the Agent Carter TV series). Even Stark’s robot DUM-E is back, somehow.
Quite how all that ties together, we’ll have to wait until October to find out. Intriguingly, Marvel has no further new live-action series in development, beyond fresh seasons of Daredevil: Born Again and Wonder Man.
