Marvel Studios has unveiled the initial trailer for VisionQuest, a new series marking the conclusion of the WandaVision storyline. The project will premiere on Oct. 14. Kevin Feige, head of Marvel Studios, presented the announcement alongside cast members Paul Bettany, reprising his role as Vision, and James Spader, returning as Ultron from the 2015 film Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Bettany spoke at the presentation about his lengthy tenure with the character, noting the various narrative challenges Vision has faced over the years, including multiple deaths within the MCU mythology. He characterized his experience playing the synthetic Avenger member as deeply rewarding as the character has developed throughout the franchise’s evolution.
Terry Matalas, known for his work as showrunner on Star Trek: Picard, is directing the series. VisionQuest follows the 2021 limited series WandaVision, which explored Wanda Maximoff’s grief following Vision’s death in Avengers: Infinity War.

Bettany’s association with the Marvel Cinematic Universe extends back to the franchise’s earliest days, beginning with his voice work as Tony Stark’s AI assistant Jarvis in 2008’s Iron Man. He first assumed the role of Vision in Age of Ultron and has continued portraying the character across multiple MCU films, television series, and animated programs, including the series What If…?
