Paul Bettany Teases Vision's MCU Return


Starting off as Iron Man's Artificial Intelligence Jarvis, Paul Bettany finally debuted in the MCU as Vision in 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. Starring in three more movies throughout the Infinity Saga, Bettany last reprised the role in Disney+'s WandaVision together with Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff.

WandaVision's conclusion officially brought Vision's story to an end after starring in the MCU for 13 years, when Wanda decided to take down the hex surrounding Westview, New Jersey. However, a version of Vision created by SWORD surfaces as White Vision, and as revealed in the show's ending, White Vision got all of the original Vision's memories, and his whereabouts remain unknown.

Now, fans are wondering if Paul Bettany might ever return as Vision, especially now that Vision's love interest, Wanda is set to have multiple appearances as one of the strongest Avengers, after being fully developed into her Marvel Comics counterpart, the Scarlet Witch.

In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, WandaVision star Paul Bettany opens up about potentially returning to the MCU as Vision.

Bettany jokingly says that no salary would make him think about it, "Absolutely not! Not for any kind of money at all. I can't even think of a figure," the actor responded.

Thankfully, the MCU vet reveals his honest answer regarding Vision's return to the MCU. Bettany noted how WandaVision's ending reveals White Vision flew off into the distance and a part of the character is still alive. Because of that, Bettany believes that his character might suit up again as Vision, but clarifies that he doesn't know when will that happen.

"No, the honest answer to that is — well maybe it's not the honest answer, but it's the answer I'm going to give you and you'll just have to cope with it — at the end of WandaVision, you see Vision fly off and that's a loose end," Bettany explained. "And Kevin Feige is a man who doesn't really allow loose ends. So I assume at some point I will be putting on my tights and cloak for another outing, but I don't know when that might be."

WandaVision's final episode concluded Vision's story, officially saying goodbye to Wanda and their twin sons, while also allowing Wanda to move on and reach her full potential as the Scarlet Witch. But the odds of Vision coming back in the future is definitely plausible, although he might return as SWORD's White Vision with original Vision's memory.

Most recently, Bettany teased a potential appearance of Vision in the upcoming MCU highly-anticipated film, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, where Wanda will officially return as Scarlet Witch after the events of WandaVision. In addition to that, Billy and Tommy Maximoff are also confirmed to be joining the sequel, which certainly opens the door for Bettany's Vision to reunite with Wanda and his twins.

We all know that Marvel is full of surprises, and the studio is no stranger to bringing back fan-beloved characters. and now that White Vision is roaming out there, Paul Bettany might definitely come back in MCU's future projects.

WandaVision is still streaming on Disney+, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will premiere in theaters on May 4.
