We've made it to the end of Marvel Studios' VisionQuest. The Disney Plus series is the third and final installment in the WandaVision Trilogy, wrapping up the overarching Maximoff Family arc that has developed over the course of WandaVision, first spinoff Agatha All Along, and now VisionQuest itself. There was understandably a lot of excitement for it for that reason - as well as the fact that it marked the long-awaited return of Paul Bettany's Vision after a five year absence and the unexpected comeback of James Spader's Ultron.

There has been a lot to love about VisionQuest, which is what makes its series finale that much more bittersweet. While Marvel Cinematic Universe fans are excited to see how this particular chapter in the long-runnign franchise's history concludes, it's going to be sad to see it come to a close. The good news is that, while season 2 isn't on the cards for this series, there are some very exciting plans for the characters' futures.

A Young Avengers project will reportedly continue Billy and Tommy's story

If you have been keeping up with the MCU throughout the Multiverse Saga, you will know that there is a Young Avengers project in the works. It's reportedly undergone multiple reinventions, with plans shifting from series to movie and back again, but Marvel Studios has seemingly remained committed to bringing it to life, with the most recent reports suggesting that it is currently planned under the title of Champions.

Now, as Marvel Comics fans will know, Billy and Tommy Maximoff (a.k.a. Wiccan and Speed) are two integral members of the Young Avengers, and the studio has invested a lot of time throughout the Multiverse Saga in bringing the pair to the MCU. They aren't the only ones either, as Ms. Marvel, Kate Bishop, Cassie Lang, Ironheart, Kid Loki, and other younger heroes have played prominent roles over the course of the past few years, reiterating the studio's long-term plan to make the Champions project.

Although it has yet to come to fruition, reports say that it will be carried over into the Mutants Era, with the hopes that Billy, Tommy, and some of the other young heroes might have a role in Avengers: Doomsday and / or Avengers: Secret Wars. And now that Anthony Mackie has seemingly confirmed that Paul Bettany will reprise his role as Vision in Avengers: Doomsday, it's fair to say that the character's super-powered children won't be too far behind him.

Furthermore, VisionQuest has only succeeded in setting the stage for part of the Maximoff Family Reunion. Vision, Tommy, and Billy have all reunited, but there are still hopes that they will one day find their way back to the mother of the family, Wanda Maximoff herself. The Scarlet Witch's fate is uncertain after she seemingly perished in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness but, with reports suggesting that Elizabeth Olsen will reprise her role as the character in at least one of the upcoming Avengers movies, it's also safe to suggest that a reunion with her family could be on the cards at some point in time.

Why VisionQuest season 2 isn't happening

While there is always scope for these characters' stories to continue in a franchise like the MCU, it won't be happening in VisionQuest season 2. Fans have been hopeful that the success of the series could lead to Marvel Television renewing it for another season - especially considering how strong the WandaVision Trilogy has been - but that's simply not the case. The show is billed as "The Final Vison" of that ground-breaking trilogy, and Marvel Studios recently confirmed in a new teaser that the season finale is indeed "The Final Episode".

I'm sure there could have been conversations surrounding another potential for VisionQuest at some point in time, but that won't be the case here. Again, the story of not just this series, but the whole WandaVision Trilogy has concluded, but it goes beyond just that. Marvel Television is evolving after the Multiverse Saga concludes, with all ongoing live-action programming ceasing to exist. VisionQuest was always designed to be a miniseries, so that isn't relevant to that, but the studio's other Disney Plus projects have either been cancelled or final-seasoned.

Shortly after renewing Wonder Man for a second season, Marvel Studios turned around and cancelled it before the writers room could even put together a storyline. Then, just a few months later, it officially pulled the plug on Daredevil: Born Again after three seasons, with the upcoming third season set to wrap up Matt Murdock's current arc. After that, Marvel TV shifts into a new era with the mysterious thriller ZODIAC, which we still know very little about.

The hopes that the Young Avengers / Champions project will be a part of that line-up too, as Marvel Studios has indeed spent years putting the team together. Now, it's time to give them the spotlight. Given its closeness to the WandaVision Trilogy - which is widely regarded as the crown jewel of both the Marvel TV era and the Multiverse Saga - it's a pretty safe bet that we will see that team stand together at some point in the near-future.

Just don't be surprised if we see them do that in Avengers: Doomsday and / or Avengers: Secret Wars before that.

VisionQuest is now streaming on Disney Plus. Avengers: Doomsday arrives in movie theaters on December 18, 2026, while Avengers: Secret Wars makes its presence felt on moviegoers on December 17, 2027.
