Marvel Studios has released a new 30-second TV spot for VisionQuest, hyping up the finale and its surprise connection to Avengers: Doomsday (you can read more about that here).
The spoilery sneak peek largely focuses on the show's leads, but mysterious red and green glitches give fans a compelling reason to go and watch "Forever" as soon as they can. Believe it or not, there are even rumblings that the post-credits scene's big surprise led to AMC's website crashing as demand for Avengers: Doomsday tickets spiked.
The finale also featured Tommy Maximoff finally embracing his superpowers as the MCU's Speed. In an interview with ScreenRant, actor Ruaridh Mollica was asked if there were ever any plans for the Young Avenger to suit up in the VisionQuest finale.
"Yes, I got completely measured for a full superhero suit. We were gonna make it," the actor shared. "It was gonna happen in the finale at some point. [Terry Matalas] couldn’t find a way for [Tommy] to just appear in a suit. He wants the show to be as grounded in reality as possible, especially my character, who really, I feel like grounds everything back to London and the real world and everything like that."
Mollica added, "There was never a moment where he could just find a superhero suit, or turn up in it, and it breaks that connection [to] reality. We were able to get the superhero goggles because they came from Paladin, and that was a way that could be worked in."
"We changed the costume to be a bit more green and tracksuit-like to reflect the superhero suit, and I think that was a really good choice," he continued. "I think I like that, and also it leaves us wanting more."
The VisionQuest Official Podcast also spoke with Mollica, who, alongside Ms. Marvel actress Iman Vellani, seemed to tease the possibility of assembling the Young Avengers. You can watch that below, along with the aforementioned TV spot.
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.
VisionQuest stars Paul Bettany, James Spader, Ruaridh Mollica, Todd Stashwick, T'Nia Miller, Lauren Morais, Orla Brady, Diane Morgan, Polly Frame, Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, with Emily Hampshire and James D'Arcy.
