Paul Bettany is set to return as the android Avenger the Vision in his own Vision Quest streaming series coming in 2026. And according to the actor himself, it seems highly likely that he will have a future in the MCU beyond that as part of Avengers: Secret Wars.
“I think I have some Avengers work to do next year,” Bettany told the Telegraph. Secret Wars will likely be in some state of production until 2026 to meet its 2027 release date, following next winter’s Avengers: Doomsday.
Bettany has portrayed Vision in several films and shows, including Avengers: Age of Ultron, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and of course, WandaVision in which he was recast in a new plain white body.
Vision Quest will follow WandaVision, showing the aftermath of Vision’s resurrection. It will take one of the tricks of its predecessor, paying homage to different films in each episode. WandaVision used this gimmick by placing each episode in the context of a particular era of sitcoms, while its first follow-up, Agatha All Along, also borrowed the theme with a series of enchanted adventures set in different decades. Agatha All Along also reintroduced Vision and Wanda Maximoff’s son Billy/Wiccan, setting up a return for his twin Tommy.
Vision Quest is based on a comic story of the same name, which also follows Vision as he is reborn in an emotionless, colorless form. The story involves Vision trying to reclaim what’s left of his humanity while coming to terms with his metamorphosis.
