Marvel’s ‘Vision Quest’ Spin-Off Beams Up ‘Star Trek’ Writing Team

Marvel’s mysterious TV project Vision Quest, a spin-off series based on 2021’s WandaVision, has gained a team of veteran Star Trek writers and production staff.

The series, which has been in development for over a year, will be helmed by Terry Matalas, who was the showrunner and writer of seasons two and three of 2022’s Star Trek: Picard, and also wrote season 3 of 2003’s Star Trek: Enterprise. Matalas isn’t the lone Star Trek talent either, as he is set to reunite with fellow franchise writers for the upcoming series.

As detailed by Vision Quest’s listing on the Writers Guild of America website, Matalas will be joined by co-executive producers Chris Monfette, Cindy Appel, and supervising producer Matt Okumura, who all worked on the latter half of Star Trek: Picard. Rounding off the team is co-executive producer Michael A. Taylor, who wrote episodes of the 1993 sci-fi series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, 1995’s Star Trek: Voyager, and 2004’s Battlestar Galactica.

With such a strong team of sci-fi talent, things are looking up for the elusive Marvel series. Filming for Vision Quest began earlier in the year at Pinewood Studios in London, and although plot details have not been revealed, the series would most likely follow after the events of WandaVision and be centred around Paul Bettany’s White Vision.

Additionally, the series is also set to include the return of some familiar faces, such as James Spader’s Ultron from 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, alongside Raza from the original 2008 Iron Man film, the leader of the Ten Rings terrorist group who kidnaps Tony Stark in the beginning of the movie which led to the creation of the Mark 1 suit.

No confirmed release window has been announced for Vision Quest, although the series is expected to be released on Disney+ sometime in 2026.
