RUMOR: VISION TV Series Is Using Human Versions Of The MCU's AIs For A Very Surprising Reason - SPOILERS

Marvel Studios' Vision TV series looks set to bring back several AIs in human form, and a new report claims to shed some light on a big part of the reason why that's happening in the WandaVision sequel.

Very little is known about what Marvel Studios has planned for its upcoming Vision TV series. However, we have good reason to believe it will revolve around the former Avenger encountering "human" versions of the MCU's AIs.

We have no clue how that happens; the show may take place in the android's mind, or we could see him build them all human-like bodies. Either way, it's an intriguing premise.

Further complicating matters, of course, is that we don't exactly know what this White Vision is after he lost the Mind Stone and had his memories restored by the Hex Vision. Fans have long theorised that Vision didn't really kill Ultron at the end of 2015's Avengers: Age of Ultron, so he may also be orchestrating this whole thing.

Scooper Daniel Richtman has proven himself a reliable source for Vision intel, and he's just shared a big update on plans for the WandaVision follow-up.

He claims that these AI characters will appear in human form for most of Vision to save on VFX costs and to help get the series on Disney+ as soon as early 2026. It's a smart decision on Marvel Studios' part if true, though we do hope to see the likes of Ultron and Jocasta get some memorable moments in their robot forms, too.

Vision is shaping up to be another unique MCU series, and we're hoping more will be revealed soon. For now, we'd recommend reading Tom King's Vision run for a few clues about what's planned.

Paul Bettany will reprise his role as Vision's title character, while James Spader is returning as Avengers: Age of Ultron's titular villain. Todd Stashwick and Faran Tahir, who is back as Raza from Iron Man, are also set to appear (Stashwick is rumoured to be playing Paladin).

Recent weeks have seen T'Nia Miller cast as Jocasta, and Kerry Condon and Emily Hampshire enlisted for F.R.I.D.A.Y. and E.D.I.T.H., respectively. Ruaridh Mollica is expected to play a mystery character widely believed to be Tommy Maximoff. There are also rumblings that Elizabeth Olsen (Scarlet Witch) and (Joe Locke) Billy Maximoff will appear.

"We’re cooking up something that I’m really excited about," Bettany said in an interview which took place later last year. He declined to reveal any more, noting that when it comes to the MCU, "snitches end up in ditches."

"I love [Agatha All Along]," the Vision actor added. "I love it and I’m so proud of [showrunner] Jac Schaeffer and I am going to watch again because there’s so much for me to learn moving forward into my contribution."

Vision - or Vision Quest - is set to premiere on Disney+ in 2026.

I feel like this series might fare better if it was an animated series. Making the Ai’s human to save money makes sense but also you’re taking away what a lot of people want to see, which is the “Special Effects” part of the show.

Apophis71 - 6/14/2025, 4:04 PM

@WruceBayne - True but then mostly appearing in human form doesn't realy answer much either as suspect they will be doing a Matrix type affair such that they are all in Visions mind but won't officialy reveal that at first kinda along the lines of the WandaVision sitcom or Agatha's Witches road.

Polaris - 6/14/2025, 4:28 PM

@Apophis71 - That would explain why he sees Jarvis as the human butler and not just AI Jarvis in human form, his essence would be in there too as part of himself.

WruceBayne - 6/14/2025, 5:46 PM

@Apophis71 - I can see that being the case, that definitely makes sense.

kylo0607 - 6/14/2025, 4:02 PM

Make Ultron human AI and not a robot and watch me quit the MCU as quick as I got into it in 2008.

@kylo0607 -

abd00bie - 6/14/2025, 4:07 PM

Looking forward to this, the cast is good. Hope this caps off the Wandavision trilogy with a bang

Wahhvacado - 6/14/2025, 4:08 PM

It saves money.

CreateNowSlpL8r - 6/14/2025, 4:15 PM

"He claims that these AI characters will appear in human form for most of Vision to save on VFX costs and to help get the series on Disney+ as soon as early 2026."

Really put himself out there with such a controversial take. Of course its to save money.

Its also why no one will watch it.

Sounds like they should just make an audio book.

kaijunexus - 6/14/2025, 4:28 PM

Wonder if we see their robot forms initially, but then it switches to Vision's perspective and he sees them as people...giving a double meaning to the word "vision"...

Polaris - 6/14/2025, 4:33 PM

If it all happens inside Vision's mind then Ultron may be trying to trick him to escape and get himself a body again, which I imagine will happen by the last couple eps of the show, so we'll get the big vfx spectacle then

BruceWayng - 6/14/2025, 4:58 PM

So let me get this straight, Marvel won’t give us a stripped down John Wick style version of Blade that could easily be made for under $100M but instead wants to save money by giving us a show about Vision and Ultron that features the characters in human form. Feige’s gotta go man…that or he needs some serious help coming back to reality.

ModHaterSLADE - 6/14/2025, 5:02 PM

I'm fine with that, so far they've gotten some good talent for this.

knighted - 6/14/2025, 5:07 PM

Cgi is too expensive?

eagc1995 - 6/14/2025, 5:47 PM

@knighted - Yeah, Disney is trying to step back from doing this high budget shows on D+ and do something more mdoerate after they struggled with some of these shows, we even heard from Tony Gilroy that Disney wasn't too keen with the budget Andor ended up having since they are trying to walk away from that

Truoptimusprime - 6/14/2025, 5:25 PM

To save money of course 😆!

McMurdo - 6/14/2025, 5:47 PM

I mean James Spader is always a good thing.

DocSpock - 6/14/2025, 5:54 PM

I think the Vision show could be excellent. Hopefully it has little or nothing to do with that sh!tty Agatha show.

And I want Ultron back and turned loose in the MCU. If they're gonna use him in this show and then just destroy him, forget it.

And yes, we need more Scarlet Witch. Not much interested in her wussy kids though.

PatientXero - 6/14/2025, 5:56 PM

Yea… checking out and being lazy is a great way to make a show.

JobinJ - 6/14/2025, 6:16 PM

Easy. It’s cheaper than CGI

Repian - 6/14/2025, 6:41 PM

So, Ultron is imprisoned in a secret room in White Vision's mind palace. But before he was imprisoned, he split into two. His other half, Jocasta, is literally drawn to Ultron, her other half. Ultron waits patiently for Jocasta to find him and finally free him.

YonnyLayna - 6/14/2025, 7:23 PM

They already did this plot on Agents of SHIELD with AIDA 🙄

TheVisionary25 - 6/14/2025, 7:57 PM

“𝐇𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐀𝐈 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐕𝐅𝐗 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐧𝐞𝐲+ 𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐬 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔”…

I honestly thought we would be getting a plot related reason in this article rather then production since this isn’t surprising but oh well.

If true then I hope we do get some moments or maybe towards the end were we see Jocasta and Ultron’s robot forms (EDITH not having one is fine since she didn’t have a physical form to begin with).

Anyway Looking forward to this show , it sounds very intriguing tbh!!.

MuadDib - 6/14/2025, 8:15 PM

James Spader is great and all, and I loved him in the Black List, but he’s old and fat and a human Ultron sounds boring AF

Saving money is going to end up losing Disney money.

Unpopular opinion: WandaVision was boring as hell and didn’t really truly have wide ranging ramifications. Her wigging out in DS was meh, and most of the general audience never watched the show to know what pushed her over the edge.

Disney and the MCU is really slipping up lately, in comparison to how strong they came out 20ish years ago.

Hope they can turn things around w/ SW and post SW, using a soft reboot to unburden themselves of some past mistakes.

You don’t get the chance to use a magic reset button and start with a clean slate very often

Matchesz - 6/14/2025, 10:02 PM

Not surprising they love to take the soul out of every character and save shitloads of money for the all white premiere parties
