VisionQuest Finale Hits Disney+ Tonight, and Season 2 Is Still a Mystery
One episode left, and Ultron is still living rent-free in Vision's head.
Vision's long road back is about to hit its last stop. VisionQuest episode 8, titled "Forever," arrives on Disney+ tonight, November 10, at 9:01 p.m. ET, according to Decider. That works out to 6:01 p.m. PT for anyone watching on the West Coast, and Marvel Studios already shared a final trailer for the episode on Monday to build up the hype.
The series has eight episodes in total, and the first seven are already streaming on Disney+ if you still need to catch up this afternoon. For a quick refresher before tonight, our breakdown of episode 6 and Ultron's team-up with Jocasta covers the biggest twist so far.
Who is in the VisionQuest finale?
Paul Bettany leads the show as Vision, and James Spader is back as Ultron, who now lives inside Vision's mind. T'Nia Miller plays Jocasta, while Todd Stashwick plays the bounty hunter Paladin and Ruaridh Mollica plays Tommy Maximoff.
The cast also includes a whole crew of familiar AI voices. Orla Brady plays F.R.I.D.A.Y., Emily Hampshire plays E.D.I.T.H. and James D'Arcy plays J.A.R.V.I.S., which makes this the most crowded group chat in the MCU. Mary McDonnell also appears in an undisclosed role, which is great news for every Battlestar Galactica fan watching.
Who made VisionQuest?
Terry Matalas created the series, and he's the same showrunner who gave Star Trek fans the beloved third season of Picard, after co-creating the 12 Monkeys television series for Syfy. He also personally wrote the first two episodes and the finale, so tonight's ending comes straight from the person who planned the whole journey. VisionQuest wraps up a trilogy of shows that started with WandaVision and continued with Agatha All Along, which means a lot of history is riding on it.
Will there be a VisionQuest season 2?
Nothing is official yet, and Marvel hasn't announced anything beyond tonight. VisionQuest was billed as a limited series, but Marvel keeps calling tonight's episode the "season" finale, as Decider pointed out.
Back in March, Matalas told The Direct that a second season is "up to the Marvel and Disney Gods." So the door is definitely open, but nobody at Marvel has officially walked through it yet, and Avengers: Doomsday arrives in theaters next month.

My read is that Marvel should give Matalas another season if the finale sticks the landing. He has turned a weird, small story about a synthetic man into one of the most interesting things Marvel has made in years. (Ultron as a backseat driver has honestly been the funniest part.)
