The Punisher: One Last Kill has only just hit Disney+, but during Disney's latest Upfront presentation in New York's Javits Center on Tuesday, we finally got some official updates on the MCU's next small-screen outing, VisionQuest.

The WandaVision spin-off is set to premiere on October 14, 2026. A breakdown of the teaser that screened did the rounds online last night (see below), but Marvel Studios has now revealed a first look at the series via a series of Instagram photos.

The image appears to show Vision (Paul Bettany) in human form, but there's speculation that this might actually be Ultron (James Spader). As for the house he's approaching, there's a theory that it could be the residence of Vision's family from the comics (wife Virginia, son Vin, and daughter Viv), who have been rumoured to appear.

Here's a brief description of the teaser via The Wrap.

“We see Bettany in his human form, essentially watching Vision’s memories like a film. When last we saw him, he was the White Vision that we saw fly off at the end of WandaVision. He’s been given his memories back without having lived them, so now he’s trying to figure out his humanity once more, noting he has none of the emotions the first Vision did. There to help him — and taunt him — is Ultron, once again voiced by James Spader. But Spader also appears in human form too."

Bettany revealed what excited him most about VisionQuest last year.

“One of the things that’s fun about that is that we finally get to see what it’s like inside Vision’s mind, and it’s more cluttered than you would think. He’s clearly been saving and copying and pasting [the AIs] to keep them alive inside his head. One of them, of course, has to be kept behind a pretty impressive firewall because he’s a psychopath. But he’s a clever one.”

This "psychopath" is almost certainly Ultron, but the Age of Ultron villain is far from the only AI character that'll factor into the story.

Emily Hampshire (Schitt's Creek, 12 Monkeys, The Rig) also joined the cast as a human version of E.D.I.T.H. (Even Dead, I'm The Hero). This tech was created by Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) before being passed on to Peter Parker (Tom Holland) following Iron Man's demise in Avengers: Endgame.

Kerry Condon was rumored to appear as F.R.I.D.A.Y. in human form, but we recently learned that Picard's Orla Brady will actually play the role. James D'Arcy will also be back as Edwin Jarvis in some capacity.

T’nia Miller (Foundation, The Fall of the House of Usher, La Fortuna) is set to play the Bride of Ultron, Jocasta, who is described as "cunning, powerful and driven by revenge."

Finally, Ruaridh Mollica's "Tucker" will be the vessel for Tommy Maximoff, aka Speed.

@OneMoreTime - There's literally a reboot coming.

@OneMoreTime - Not that that's a bad thing.

This sounds more interesting than I initially expected, hopefully they can make it as fun an trippy as WandaVision. I dont know how far down the rabbit hole they’d go but an Alice in Wonderland/ Eternal Sunshine esque journey through his memories would be pretty cool

@Ha1frican - honestly given the showrunners previous work , I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a more psychological & philosophical story then more spectacle heavy which is fine with me since that’s where this Vision tends to shine imo.

Damn , that color saturation is surprisingly more vibrant then I expected..

My guess is that is Ultron approaching the “house” in Visions mind where he and the other AI’s like FRIDAY & EDITH amongst others reside but we’ll see.

Anyway , looking forward to the show!!.

So the entire show, they will be in human form.

Great.

Reminds me of Brainiac always being in human form on Smallville to keep the budget down.

Sucks that Marvel has run out of money.

I wish they kept Jac Shaeffer from WandaVision and Agatha to run this. She killed it on those first two shows. However, still excited for this. This is kind of season 3 of WandaVision and all of them have been some of the best MCU stuff on Disney+

@MrDandy - agreed about Jac. I put Wandavision on the top of the list for Disney + along with Loki S1 and DD BA S2

I'd bet that house is Visions mind palace, and all the disparate AI entities live there.

@ProfessorWhy - Either that or a posh Disneyland.

Interesting this will be good if they tell the story right.

would LOVE to see a more comic, or should i say, better looking Ultron (not human form) by the end of this show and hopefully somehow re-released into the MCU

@MotherGooseUPus - sadly like most of the MCU D- content this will promise the earth and deliver very little.

Same Wanda show not excited for this

This is going to be such a let down, it’ll be almost entirely in human form whatever that is, with a few flash backs using previously shot material.

@Spike101 - exactly! It seems like the show will be taking place in Vision’s head…

So why does any of it matter? If it’s not taking place in the real world? And affecting other characters?
Spike101
Spike101 - 5/14/2026, 10:45 AM
@TheMandalorian - Pretty much most of the D- shows have been a complete letdown other than WandaVision which was very clever and entertaining, Born Again although the quality of that is questionable in places, Werewolf by night which was almost perfect and a few moments in Moon Knight and Hawkeye. They always seem to promise the earth up front and deliver very little leaving you thinking what might have been…
