Marvel’s VisionQuest has a rollout plan, and it is not the binge drop that many fans expected. The Disney+ series, starring Paul Bettany as the synthetic superhero, starts on Wednesday, October 14 with two episodes, then delivers two more per week for the following two weeks before the penultimate episode and the finale arrive one per week in November. Deadline confirmed the full schedule, episode titles included.
The series runs eight episodes and closes the story that began with WandaVision. Showrunner Terry Matalas follows Vision as he hides from the people who want to use him as a weapon, consulting the AI personas buried in his own programming, F.R.I.D.A.Y., E.D.I.T.H., J.A.R.V.I.S. and Ultron (James Spader). A bounty on his head sends him on the road with Thomas Shepherd (Ruaridh Mollica), a mysterious boy who may be Vision’s reincarnated son. Todd Stashwick plays the mercenary Paladin, with Diane Morgan, Lauren Morais, Emily Hampshire and James D’Arcy among the supporting cast.
The Oct 14 start keeps VisionQuest inside the WandaVision and Agatha All Along family, and the two at a time pace gives each chapter room to land. Set your calendar and start the run on opening night.
