VisionQuest will conclude the trilogy that began with WandaVision and continued in Agatha All Along. The latter focused on Billy Maximoff's search for his brother, Tommy, who will meet Vision in the former Avenger's upcoming series.
Agatha All Along teased the possibility that the Scarlet Witch could still be alive, despite what seemed like a fairly definitive death in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. In that movie, a distraught Wanda appears to bury herself beneath Mount Wundagore, though her fate was somewhat ambiguous (we never saw a body).
Talking in the latest issue of Empire Magazine, VisionQuest showrunner Terry Matalas confirmed that Scarlet Witch will not appear in the Disney+ series. This isn't hugely surprising, but it does somewhat ruin any hopes for a family reunion at the end of the series.
Interestingly, Matalas also said that Vision is aware of Wanda's death, adding on a lighter note, "Vision knows Wanda's fate. He’s watched all the movies."
In related news, @MyTimeToShineH has shared a huge rumour about a surprise cameo in VisionQuest. According to the insider, Agatha Harkness will appear in the show, and she'll be shown "talking to someone, but we don't see who." Could that mystery person be the Scarlet Witch? We'll have to wait and see.
There are also rumblings on social media that Elizabeth Olsen's stunt double has been spotted on the set of Avengers: Doomsday. However, these claims are based on an old photo shared on Instagram, and don't seem to confirm anything about the character's future just yet. We're bound to see Wanda before the Multiverse Saga ends, though.

In VisionQuest, Vision, rebooted and having escaped from those who sought to weaponise him, has been in hiding. Searching for new meaning, he consults the AI personas embedded in his programming, including F.R.I.D.A.Y., E.D.I.T.H., J.A.R.V.I.S., and the infamous Ultron.
His discreet existence ends when a bounty placed on his head thrusts him on the run with Thomas Shepard, a mysterious boy who may be Vision's son, reincarnated. As Vision evades capture, he must confront his nature, resist Ultron's influence, and unravel the enigma that is his young companion if he’s to survive.
