‘VisionQuest’ Sneaks Into Marvel’s ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Watch List After That Shocking Finale

Marvel fans preparing for ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ have a new addition to their homework. Disney+ has been steering subscribers toward a curated watch list ahead of the crossover. After this week’s jaw-dropping finale, ‘VisionQuest’ has officially earned its place there.

The collection has been part of Marvel’s countdown for a while. Ahead of the film’s release, fans can stream the “Countdown to Avengers: Doomsday” collection on Disney+. When it was unveiled, it included 13 movies and 1 Disney+ series, and none of the ‘WandaVision’ trilogy entries made the list.

That has now changed. ‘VisionQuest’ was quietly added to the Countdown to Doomsday lineup on Disney+, appearing alongside ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’, ‘Thunderbolts*’ and ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’. The show’s title even carries a “Season Finale” label, a nod to the episode that changed everything.

It’s not hard to see why Marvel made the move. The finale, episode 8, “Forever,” came with perhaps the biggest post-credits scene for any Marvel TV show. The scene revisits a major moment from the MCU’s past.

A hooded figure that appears to be Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom raises the rubble of Wundagore off Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) after she seemingly killed herself under the collapsing mountain in ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’. Doom then commands the Scarlet Witch to awaken, declaring that her power will be his, and Wanda opens her eyes.

The surprise was carefully guarded. The post-credits scene was not included in the screeners sent out to press. The finale actually has 2 post-credit scenes, with the first one focusing on James Spader’s Ultron.

Showrunner Terry Matalas has explained why the Wanda reveal came after the episode rather than during it. “It really needed to be about Vision, so the end credits sequence was the perfect way to address Wanda,” Matalas told Gold Derby. He also confirmed that the post-credits scene will flow into ‘Avengers: Doomsday’.

The main episode had its own emotional payoff. Vision (Paul Bettany) was reunited with both of their sons, Tommy (Ruaridh Mollica) and Billy (Joe Locke), in the finale. Wanda’s return gives that family story a far more ominous next chapter.

Wanda isn’t the first powerful figure Doom has claimed. The ‘Avengers: Endgame Encore’ re-release added a post-credits scene in which Doom turns up where Bruce Banner is being contained, tells him he is there to collect him, and leaves nothing behind but a sigil on the floor.

What Doom plans for her remains unclear. His line in the coda is about taking Wanda’s power, which leaves open whether she fights beside the Avengers or gets pointed at them. Olsen’s name wasn’t on the confirmed list of ‘Doomsday’ actors, and many fans theorized she could be one of the mysterious, hooded Latverian witches associated with Doctor Doom in the film’s promotional materials.

Eagle-eyed viewers had already spotted a connection earlier in the season. In Episode 2, fans noticed a DVD case sitting in Ultron’s room with the words “Countdown to Doom” printed on it. Marvel’s official ‘Doomsday’ clock even briefly “glitched” to promote the ‘VisionQuest’ finale with the words “FINALE TONIGHT.”

Viewers seem to be paying attention. ‘VisionQuest’ pulled in over 639 million minutes viewed in its first 10 days alone. With its finale now officially tied to the crossover, those numbers could keep climbing as fans catch up.
