I’m not sure if we’ll ever be this excited to see a bunch of sentient AI beings ever again.
There’s a line toward the end of WandaVision that summed up how Vision felt about his being or purpose: “I have been a voice with no body. A body, but not human. And now… a memory made real. Who knows what I might be next?” At the time, his “next” was one of the loose threads in this saga, and now Marvel’s bringing it home through exploring Vision’s memories and his idea of what it means to be real.
WandaVision broke ground as the first TV show in the Marvel Cinematic Universe when it debuted in 2021, shepherding in a post-Avengers: Endgame round of stories that have culminated in a series trilogy and a tangential arc in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Five years after Wanda Maximoff did a number on Vision (Ultron’s assessment, not mine) and Westview, New Jersey, the “dead witch” is still causing heartbreak in VisionQuest, which premieres on Oct. 13 on Disney Plus.
Just a couple of months before Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters , Marvel is closing out this run that started with WandaVision, followed by Agatha All Along with Billy Maximoff (played by Joe Locke), and now catching up with Vision. A suspenseful, contemplative hero’s quest, VisionQuest is just as much about connection, remembering and father-son relationships as it is about scary AI entities and superpowered action. The sci-fi series serves as an unconventional love letter to Wanda Maximoff and, in some ways, to humankind, too.
