Marvel teases with sneak peak of ‘VisionQuest’ at NYCC 2025; fans get glimpse of key characters; check release date and where to watch the show

The year 2026 is set to be full of surprises for Marvel fans, especially those who have been following the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), as they will be treated to VisionQuest, the final installment of the trilogy that started with WandaVision and continued in last year’s Agatha All Along.

The revelation was made by Brad Winderbaum, the Head of Streaming, Television, and Animation at Marvel Studios, at the Marvel Animation and Marvel Television panel at New York Comic Con. He brought out MCU veteran Paul Bettany, better known to long-time fans as the Vision, to unveil VisionQuest.

Fans also got a sneak peek at footage from the show, revealing several key cast members: Henry Lewis as D.U.M.-E, Jonathan Sayer as U, James D’Arcy as J.A.R.V.I.S., Orla Brady as F.R.I.D.A.Y., and Emily Hampshire as E.D.I.T.H. James Spader also returns as Ultron, reprising his role from 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron.

The footage ends with a shot of Ruaridh Mollica, appearing in a CCTV recording where he's identified as Thomas Shepherd. The show will release on Disney+ in 2026.

Paul Bettany on VisionQuest

While on stage, Paul Bettany revealed where we find Vision in the upcoming series following the events of 2021’s WandaVision. “What’s different about Vision right now is that Red Vision gave Vision all of his memories, including the memories from within the Hex. But White Vision is having real difficulty connecting to them,” Bettany elaborated, as quoted by Marvel.

“So he has the memories, but he doesn’t have the emotions and the feelings, and I think that’s what the journey is. White Vision’s journey during the show is about his attempt to connect to those memories and who he was… but with lasers!”

When asked about whether VisionQuest will play with genres in the way WandaVision did with sitcoms, Winderbaum kept his cards close to his chest. “The less we say, the better,” teased the Head of Marvel Television. “But what I will say about Terry's vision for the show is that he knows the lore. So if you've been following the MCU all these years, you're going to be very, very, very rewarded.”
