VisionQuest’s Post-Credits Scene Hints at an Important Future You May Not Think
A Familiar Marvel Tradition Returns
The VisionQuest finale follows the MCU’s long-running habit of placing scenes after the credits. The series comes after two live-action Disney+ shows, Wonder Man and Daredevil: Born Again season 2, that had no such scenes.
The article also notes that The Punisher: One Last Kill lacked a post-credits sequence, despite Jon Bernthal being set to appear in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. VisionQuest is described as the only live-action Marvel release on the small screen in 2026 to include one.
Ultron’s Changed Path
James Spader returns as Ultron, last seen in 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. After spending years inside Vision’s mind, he has moved away from his plan to end humanity, though Jocasta’s loss briefly turns him toward villainy again.
Vision forces Ultron to reconsider. In the post-credits scene, Ultron presents himself as his human avatar, Virgil Horton, whom the series identifies as the grandson of scientist Phineas Horton.
A Possible Reunion Ahead
Ultron carries Jocasta’s hard drive, suggesting he may try to rebuild her. The scene points toward a possible reunion and love story, continuing the series’ focus on humanity and connection.
Where Ultron could appear next remains unknown. The article suggests another MCU series as one possibility, while naming Armor Wars or an Iron Man movie after Avengers: Secret Wars as other potential routes.
