The untitled Vision series is an upcoming American television series created by Terry Matalas for the streaming service Disney+, based on the Marvel Comics character Vision. It is intended to be one of the television series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) produced by Marvel Studios, via its Marvel Television label, sharing continuity with the films of the franchise. Matalas serves as showrunner.
Paul Bettany reprises his role as Vision from previous MCU media. Development of a series centered on Vision began by October 2022, when it was known as Vision Quest. Jac Schaeffer was attached as head writer to develop the series as a spin-off from her MCU series WandaVision (2021), but she was no longer involved by May 2024. At that time, Matalas was redeveloping the series and Bettany was confirmed to be attached. Filming is expected to begin in late 2024 in the United Kingdom.
The series is scheduled to debut on Disney+ in 2026. It will be part of Phase Six of the MCU.
In March 2009, Marvel Studios hired writers to help come up with creative ways to launch its lesser-known properties, including Vision, [2] and Paul Bettany was later cast as the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) incarnation of Vision. After Vision's death in Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Bettany was revealed to be portraying a reassembled and reactivated version of Vision in the Disney+ series WandaVision (2021), referred to as "White Vision" or "The Vision". [3] [4] [5] This version has an all-white appearance, similar to when the comic book character was resurrected with an all-white body and no memories or emotions. [3] In May 2021, WandaVision head writer Jac Schaeffer signed a three-year overall television deal with Marvel Studios to develop additional Disney+ projects for the studio. [6] By October 2022, they were developing a television series called Vision Quest, [7] [8] which would center on Bettany's "White Vision". Schaeffer was set to serve as head writer after working on another WandaVision spin-off, Agatha All Along (2024). [8] Development of a Vision-centric series had been rumored as early as March 2021. [9] The name Vision Quest was previously used for a late 1980s Marvel Comics storyline in West Coast Avengers, [7] [10] although Jeff Sneider of Above the Line said it was unclear if the series would be a direct adaptation of that comic. [7] A writers' room was set to be formed in early November 2022, [7] [8] to include Peter Cameron, Megan McDonnell, and Eileen Shim; [11] [12] Cameron and McDonnell worked on WandaVision, Agatha All Along, and other MCU media. [11] Vision Quest was expected to follow "White Vision" as he attempts to regain his memories and humanity, with potential for Elizabeth Olsen to reprise her MCU role as Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch. [8]
By October 2023, Marvel Studios shifted their creative philosophy to a more traditional television development process, moving away from head writers and beginning to hire dedicated showrunners for their series. [13] Schaeffer was no longer developing Vision Quest by May 2024, due to her focus on making Agatha All Along, and Terry Matalas was redeveloping the now-untitled series and set to serve as its showrunner. Marvel Studios hired Matalas after being impressed with his work on the third season of Star Trek: Picard, with Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige being a particular fan of the Star Trek franchise. The series is being released under Marvel Studios' "Marvel Television" label. [1]
A writers' room opened during the week of May 20, 2024. [14] The series will be set after the events of WandaVision. [1]
Bettany was confirmed to be reprising his role as Vision in the series with the news of its redevelopment in May 2024. [1]
Principal photography is expected to begin in late 2024 in the United Kingdom. [15] [16]
The series is scheduled to debut on Disney+ in 2026. [1] It will be part of Phase Six of the MCU.[ citation needed]
