Though it has been in development since late-2022, details about the Paul Bettany-led Vision-centric series–including an official title–proved difficult to pin down. That all changed during New York Comic Con 2025 when Bettany made a surprise appearance to discuss the series, now confirmed as VisionQuest. With the project now set for an October 14th debut, details have begun to emerge, including a potential synopsis that sets the stage for Vision to be a synthezoid on the run.
Shared by social media scooper My Time To Shine Hello, the synopsis indicates that while Vision is attempting to reconnect with his memories, a bounty forces him to change course.
The Vision, rebooted and having escaped those who sought to use him as a weapon, has been in hiding. His quest for new meaning and discreet existence is interrupted when a bounty is placed on his head, forcing Vision to forge real connections and embrace found family if he’s to survive
-Possible synopsis for VisionQuest
Showrunner Terry Matalas previously explained that the series would follow a “Vision who has died and come back to life…going through a bit of an identity quest.” Part of that quest will involve a heavy dose of artificial intelligences that, like Vision, are part of Tony Stark’s legacy, including Henry Lewis as D.U.M.-E, Jonathan Sayer as U, James D’Arcy as J.A.R.V.I.S., Orla Brady as F.R.I.D.A.Y., Emily Hampshire as E.D.I.T.H, and James Spader as Ultron, all of whom may be the “found family” teased in the synopsis.
And if that won’t put enough on the plate if the Synthezoid Avenger, the soul of his son Tommy is now inhabiting the body of Thomas Shepard, played by Ruaridh Mollica. Suffice it to say, there will be quite a bit going on in VisionQuest, however, where and when it takes place may just make things even more complicated.
