Paul Bettany discusses VisionQuest and family jokes

Actor Paul Bettany has shared humorous anecdotes regarding his children’s perception of his Marvel Cinematic Universe role. During recent media appearances, Bettany revealed that his children frequently label his Disney+ profile icon with the phrase ‘The Worst Avenger’ underneath his image as Vision.

Bettany’s wife, actress Jennifer Connelly, remains a supporter of his character, though the actor uses the family joke to highlight the central theme of his upcoming series, VisionQuest. The show, which is scheduled to premiere on Disney+ on October 14, 2026, focuses on the character's search for identity after being resurrected in WandaVision.

In the series, Vision goes into hiding and must navigate various AI personas within his programming while being pursued by bounty hunters. The production features the return of James Spader as Ultron, alongside a cast including Ruaridh Mollica, Todd Stashwick, and T’Nia Miller.
