VISION: James D'Arcy & Kerry Condon Rumored To Have Joined Cast As Edwin Jarvis & F.R.I.D.A.Y. In Human Form

A very interesting casting rumor here, as we're hearing that both Kerry Condon and James D'Arcy are set to appear as F.R.I.D.A.Y. and Jarvis in the Disney+ Vision series...

As Marvel Studios' Vision series (previously titled "Vision Quest") continues to round out its cast, we have a very interesting rumor relating to Tony Stark and his father Howard's former assistants.

According to MTTSH, Kerry Condon and James D'Arcy will appear as their respective characters, F.R.I.D.A.Y and Jarvis.

Condon provided the voice of Tony's second AI after J.A.R.V.I.S. (Paul Bettany) was transformed into Vision, while D'Arcy played the human the "natural-language user interface computer system" was named after, Edwin Jarvis.

How these characters will factor into the show remains to be seen.

The project is being described as "the third part of a trilogy that started with WandaVision and continues in Agatha All Along."

We found out earlier this year that the Vision show had been revamped, with Star Trek: Picard executive producer Terry Matalas now on board as showrunner. The show is currently on track for a 2026 premiere.

Matalas' work on Picard is said to have "greatly impressed the top brass at the studio. Marvel chief Kevin Feige, an avowed Trekkie, even recently appeared with Matalas on a two-hour episode of the Star Trek podcast Inglorious Treksperts.”

Paul Bettany will return as the MCU's tragic synthezoid, with Avengers: Age of Ultron's James Spader set to reprise his Ultron role ("it’s unclear whether Ultron will be returning as a robot or in human form"). There's  been no mention of Elizabeth Olsen's potential involvement, but  the series will take place after the events of WandaVision, "as ghost Vision presumably explores his new purpose in life."

The finale of WandaVision revealed that the Vision we'd been spending time with over the course of the season was actually one of Wanda's constructs, but the real, "White Vision" was rebuilt by S.W.O.R.D. and programmed to track down and kill the Scarlet Witch. This version of the character away to parts unknown towards the end of the episode after declaring himself to be the "true Vision."

As for Wanda, last we saw of the powerful sorceress, she was laying waste to the Illuminati and bringing a mountain down on top of herself in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Picard actor Todd Stashwick is also on board as "an assassin who is on the trail of android and the technology he possesses."

Previous rumors claimed that Vision's children, Vin and Viv, would make their MCU debuts in the show, but we have no idea which - if any - ideas from Jac Schaefer's incarnation of the series will carry over. Euphoria alum Javon Walton is rumored to be up for the role of "Teen" (most likely Speed).

So Agents of Shield is canon

@Malatrova15 - The casting was re-approved when D'Arcy showed up again in the time travel setting of Endgame. But it'd be more like proving, again, that some elements from Agent Carter are canon because that was when we saw Jarvis in live-action properly for the first time.

I can actually buy this rumor, seems seamlessly fitting. And a nice way to bring back these actors in a way that it makes sense.

Kerry Condon has been popping up lately it seems, with "In The Land of Sinners and Saints" and next year as well with "F1".

@NinnesMBC - she’s also gonna be in Star Wars Skeleton Crew

@TheVisionary25 - Wasn't aware of that. Hopefully she shares the screen with Jude Law's Jedi character and the little ones.

@NinnesMBC - hope so

Could see her being an old acquitance/love interest if Jude’s character

@TheVisionary25 - I'll lean into an old acquitance, if not his former master.

Cool, D'Arcy was great on Agent Carter.
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 9/25/2024, 9:34 PM
That would be cool if true!!.

I could see this Vision , even though he his the old one’s memories now still trying to figure out his origins so he could dig into the life of Edwin J.A.R.V.I.S. who was Tony’s inspiration for his original form.

However in regards to Kerry Condon’s F.R.I.D.A.Y, I’m not entirely sure how she could be involved but I wouldn’t be surprised like J.A.R.V.I.S became Vision that perhaps she could become this universe’s version of Jocasta if she gets a body (I know they are seperate characters in the comics but it’s not like the MCU hasn’t combined characters before).

@TheVisionary25 - I like the idea of her becoming Jocasta, but she was another of Tony's AIs in AoU. They could pretend it didn't happen tho lol

If the show is all about Vision's past, memories and identity as it seems, this is where RDJ should cameo.

I really hope this is true!

TheVisionary25 - 9/25/2024, 9:48 PM
@Polaris - same!!.

Seeing Jarvis again would be great since I enjoyed him in Agent Carter.

@TheVisionary25 - Me too. I was so happy when he showed up in Endgame. Having Vision meet the man who (partially) inspired his creation is a great idea imo.

Wonder where this series will fit within the timeline but also when it will release within the Multiverse Saga. Because the Multiverse Saga is coming to an end in 2027 and Marvel Studios has movies and shows lined up until 2027. Not to mention Kevin Feige and Bob Iger are no longer oversaturating the market with Marvel content.

This is pretty interesting; if there are parallels to WandaVision and it's inspired by Tom King's comic run, maybe Vision ends up creating a Synthezoid family and that's why we're getting these actors/characters back as well as Ultron; or maybe there'll be a lot of sequences that play out inside Vision's mind and that's where all these characters come into play. It's honestly hard to guess but I'm definitely intrigued.
