According to reports, Marvel Studios is developing a second WandaVision spinoff series for Disney+ that will center on Paul Bettany’s character, the Vision.
According to rumors, The Vision (Bettany) will be attempting to retrieve his memories and humanity in the next series, Vision Quest, which will open a writer’s room the following week. While Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) is rumored to make an appearance, the spotlight is on Vision. This would make sense considering how interwoven the two characters’ arcs are in the MCU.
According to what I’ve heard, Jac Schaeffer, the creator, writer, and executive producer of the other Agatha: House of Harkness-starring WandaVision spinoff, is in charge of Vision Quest. Bettany’s and Marvel Studios’ representatives declined to comment.
Some people are informally calling the new offshoot the White Vision project after the character’s most recent appearance on television. White Vision, who made his debut after WandaVision Episode 8, was developed by S.W.O.R.D. by reconstructing and activating Vision’s body. White Vision was then tasked with eliminating Wanda and her “Conditional” Vision.
In the ninth and last episode of WandaVision, the two Visions engaged in a titanic battle. “Conditional” Vision combed through White Vision’s memories, which relived everything of the normal Vision’s MCU experiences up until Thanos destroyed him. The possible spinoff was set up when White Vision suddenly realized, “I Am Vision,” flew up to the sky, and vanished.
Following the critical and economic success of WandaVision, which received 23 Emmy nominations, including nods for Bettany and Olsen, Bettany has been reluctant about playing the same part again.
During a panel discussion for Deadline Contenders TV: The Nominees 2021, he commented, “It was a lovely climax for all these things Lizzie and I have done together.” “We carved out a niche for ourselves, and the tone of this was different from earlier films. However, with Marvel, you can never be sure if you’re finished or not. I don’t want to declare it over just yet. Making this show was one of the most enjoyable and liberating experiences of my life. It was fantastic to watch the crowd respond to it in that way.
In the current film Here by Miramax, directed by Robert Zemeckis and written by Eric Roth, Bettany starred with Tom Hanks and Robin Wright. The Miramax comedy Harvest Moon, which he also produced and co-wrote the script for with Dana Brown, will have him in the lead role. In addition, Bettany is now making a movie version of the play The Collaboration, which she will shortly appear in on Broadway.
