Some new plot details about the upcoming VisionQuest show have been revealed.
Marvel Television’s VisionQuest is expected to premiere on Disney+ at some point this year. Created by Terry Matalas, the show serves as a spin-off to the 2021 WandaVision miniseries, which was further continued in 2024 with Agatha All Along.
Paul Bettany is reprising his MCU role as Vision in the show, while James Spader is also returning as Ultron. The cast further includes Todd Stashwick, T’Nia Miller, Ruaridh Mollica, and Emily Hampshire, among others.
What is the update on VisionQuest?
Speaking on the Official Marvel Podcast, Brad Winderbaum discussed VisionQuest and revealed some exciting new details about the show.
“VisionQuest is so rewarding for fans of the WandaVision trilogy, but also fans of the MCU, especially the Infinity Saga,” he said. “What’s amazing about Terry Matalas is [it’s] like talking to someone who grew up at Marvel. The guy knows the lore as well as any of the producers here. He manages a way to pull from the MCU mythology in such clever ways that don’t feel like homework, don’t feel like old ideas that you have to remember, but feel like fresh ideas that just pull from the same rich well of concepts that the universe has kind of put in the toy box for us.
“Agatha, in many ways, plays with themes of motherhood in a way that VisionQuest plays with themes of fatherhood. The entire trilogy is focused, in many ways, on parenthood as a concept.
“…[VisionQuest] is really about fathers and sons. And, specifically, about three generations of grandfather-father-son. Can a man who had an abusive father be a good father himself? It gets very emotional at times. And it’s exciting. It’s an exciting adventure. When you see Vision kicking ass and you get all that Marvel fun and adventure, it’s all done on the backdrop of real human stakes and emotion, which makes the show feel very grand. It’s like an adrenaline rush, it’s emotional, and it really delivers on a lot of things that I hope people have come to expect from Marvel.”
Marvel Studios has not yet announced an exact premiere date for VisionQuest.
