Vision Quest Casting May Hint at Iron Man Storyline Adaptation in MCU
The new MCU series “Vision Quest” is adding some familiar faces from the robot and AI realm of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Following the events of WandaVision, the show will feature Paul Bettany’s return as Vision, along with some intriguing new cast members. White Vision, portrayed by Bettany, will be central to the series as he navigates his newfound existence.
Rumors suggest that Emily Hampshire will be portraying the human form of Tony Stark’s AI, EDITH, while Kerry Condon will take on the role of FRIDAY, another of Stark’s AI creations. On top of that, James Spader will be reprising his role as Ultron, and T’Nia Miller will be portraying Jocasta. This cast of characters sets the stage for a story centered around robots and AI in the MCU, echoing themes seen in recent Iron Man comic book storylines.
The series “Vision Quest” on Disney+ will showcase a lineup of robot and AI characters, building on the narrative threads introduced in WandaVision and Agatha All Along. The connection to Marvel Comics’ “Iron Man 2020” becomes apparent when considering the themes of robot rights and the complexities of existence explored in both storylines. While details about the series remain under wraps, fans can expect to delve into the world of AI through the eyes of Vision and his comrades when “Vision Quest” premieres on Disney+ in 2026.
