Bettany Leaves Vision Future in Doomsday Unconfirmed

Paul Bettany has not confirmed whether Vision will appear in Avengers Doomsday, with the Marvel actor addressing the speculation on the Good Morning America podcast on October 12, 2026, while preparing to return as Vision in Disney+ series VisionQuest.

Bettany said the decision about his Marvel future belongs to Marvel Studios leadership, including president Kevin Feige and co-president Louis D'Esposito, leaving Vision's involvement in Avengers Doomsday officially unconfirmed.

"I'm just trying to keep the kids in shoes, and if I tell you that, I'll get fired. I'm just out there hustling." said Paul Bettany, actor.

The actor's comments came as he continues his MCU return through VisionQuest, which follows the rebuilt Avenger after the events of WandaVision. The series also brings back James Spader as Ultron.

According to the series details, VisionQuest follows Vision as he searches for a new purpose while avoiding people who want to use him as a weapon. The story includes artificial intelligence personalities within his programming.

The Disney+ series features Vision interacting with Ultron, J.A.R.V.I.S., F.R.I.D.A.Y., and E.D.I.T.H. as part of his search for answers about his identity and future.

Created for television by Terry Matalas, VisionQuest is the final installment in a television trilogy that began with WandaVision in 2021 and continued with Agatha All Along in 2024. The series is scheduled to premiere on Disney+ on October 14, 2026.
