Vision (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

Vision is a fictional character portrayed by Paul Bettany in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) media franchise, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. Originally created Ultron to originally serve as his body, Vision is a vibranium-based male android (or "Synthezoid") sporting the Mind Stone, and uploaded with the core software of Tony Stark's artificial intelligence, J.A.R.V.I.S..

After defeating Ultron, Vision subsequently joins the Avengers and develops a romantic relationship with his team-member, Wanda Maximoff. Vision is later killed by Thanos after the latter removes the Mind Stone from Vision's head to complete the Infinity Gauntlet in order to initiate the Blip. In her grief, Maximoff creates a false reality in Westview, New Jersey, and recreates a version of Vision and has two children with him, Billy and Tommy. Vision's real body is later recommissioned and reprogrammed by S.W.O.R.D., sporting an all-white look, but later gains his memories back with the help of Maximoff's alternate Vision. Maximoff later deletes the alternate version after returning the town to normalcy.

Bettany has appeared as the character in the films Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Captain America: Civil War (2016), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and had a starring role in the Disney miniseries WandaVision (2021). Alternate versions of the character have appeared in the animated series What If...? (2021–2024), also voiced by Bettany.
