Paul Bettany is back as Marvel’s most popular android Vision in the upcoming Disney+ series, “VisionQuest.” The eight-episode series’ release date is set for Oct. 14.
The show features Bettany’s first live-action MCU
role since “WandaVision,” the inaugural Marvel TV show on Disney+ that starred him and Elizabeth Olson’s Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch. Bettany began his Marvel journey way back in the first “Iron Man” movie as J.A.R.V.I.S., the AI voice that controls Tony Stark’s powerful suit of armor. He’s brought to life as the robot Vision in “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” where Bettany debuted the character and later joined the team along with Olson’s Wanda. However, Thanos kills Vision in “Avengers: Infinity War” by ripping the Mind Stone from his forehead, which throws Wanda into a depression over the death of her lover.
In “WandaVision,” the former heroine takes over a New Jersey town and creates a fake, sitcom-inspired world where she and a magically-created, amnesiac Vision live happily ever after with their two kids, Tommy and Billy. Once Wanda’s ruse is uncovered, the real Vision (now sporting a white costume) is reanimated and has his full memory restored. He flies off, and Wanda later seemingly dies after going full villain in “Doctor Stranger in the Multiverse of Madness.”
Now, Bettany’s Vision appears in both android and human form in “VisionQuest” alongside several of Marvel’s other famous AI robots. James Spader returns as Ultron, Emily Hampshire is E.D.I.T.H., Orla Brady is F.R.I.D.A.Y., James D’Arcy is J.A.R.V.I.S., T’nia Miller is Jocasta and Ruaridh Mollica is the grown-up version of Tommy Maximoff.
