Paul Bettany will reportedly return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Vision in a spin-off series for Disney+ called Vision Quest. According to Source, the 51-year-old will also play an all-white version of the character seen at the end of WandaVision. That version was produced by S.W.O.R.D.
The publication reports that the series’ writers’ room will open next week, following Vision as he tries to “regain his memory and his humanity.”
Paul Bettany’s Vision to Receive Spin-off Series’ On Disney+
Vision Quest will be the second series to come from WandaVision. The first series is called Agatha: House of Harkness, and Kathryn Hahn plays the wicked witch Agatha Harkness.
In WandaVision, Agatha was the main villain, and her own series has already been approved by the studio.
Both series are to be produced by Jac Schaeffer, who created, wrote, and oversaw WandaVision.
In the last episode of WandaVision, when Wanda’s Vision and White Vision faced off, the stage was set for Vision Quest.
After a long battle, the new Vision looked into the other’s mind, then said, “I am Vision,” and disappeared.
If Bettany were to play the character again, it would be the 10th Marvel project he has worked on. He played Jarvis, an artificial intelligence without a body, in the first Iron Man movie and the first Avengers movie.
In 2015, Bettany slipped into Vision’s body and has remained in it ever since.
Bettany has a number of other projects lined up in addition to his work in the MCU.

In February, the play was shown for the first time at the Young Vic Theatre in London.
After filming is completed, the play will be performed on Broadway. Opening night is set for December 20, and Bettany and Pope will be back in their roles.
