As part of his search for answers, Vision converses with several other artificial intelligences drawn from his own programming, including FRIDAY (Orla Bradley), DUM-E (Henry Lewis), JARVIS (James D'Arcy), and Ultron (James Spader). Much of Ultron is shown in human form in the footage, and the other Tony Stark-created AIs appear less than thrilled to have him around. An understandable reaction, given that Ultron nearly wiped out humanity in *Avengers: Age of Ultron*.\n\nAccording to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, *VisionQuest* will serve as the final installment in what he's calling the \"Wanda trilogy,\" following *WandaVision* and *Agatha All Along*. It's also expected to be Marvel's last live-action Disney+ series for the foreseeable future, part of a broader pullback from television [that multiple outlets](https://collider.com/marvel-disney-plus-streaming-change-after-visionquest/) have reported in recent months. That shift already led to the cancellation of [ Wonder Man](https://mashable.com/article/wonder-man-review-marvel), which drew backlash from fans after the show was scrapped\n\n[just months after being renewed](https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/wonder-man-canceled-disney-season-2-renewal-1236824259/)for a second season.\n\n*VisionQuest* premieres on Disney+ on Oct. 14.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/marvel-unveils-first-visionquest-trailer-reveals-ultrons-return-to-the-mcu", "canonical_source": "https://mashable.com/entertainment/d23-marvel-visionquest-trailer-ultron", "published_at": "2026-08-15 16:16:08+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-08-15 17:11:15.853873+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence"], "entities": ["Marvel Studios", "VisionQuest", "Paul Bettany", "Vision", "Ultron", "James Spader", "Kevin Feige", "Disney+"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/marvel-unveils-first-visionquest-trailer-reveals-ultrons-return-to-the-mcu", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/marvel-unveils-first-visionquest-trailer-reveals-ultrons-return-to-the-mcu.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/marvel-unveils-first-visionquest-trailer-reveals-ultrons-return-to-the-mcu.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/marvel-unveils-first-visionquest-trailer-reveals-ultrons-return-to-the-mcu.jsonld"}}
