Spoiler warning: This post discusses the VisionQuest finale and its post credits scene. If you have not finished the series yet, bookmark this one for later!
Disney+ just made a quiet change that has Marvel fans buzzing. VisionQuest has been added to the official Countdown to Avengers: Doomsday collection on Disney+, the list of movies and shows Marvel recommends watching before Avengers: Doomsday arrives in theaters on December 18.
Until now, none of the Wanda Maximoff shows were on the list, which had many fans assuming Wanda, Vision and her sons would sit this one out. That changed this week.
Why VisionQuest Being Added Is a Big Deal
The VisionQuest finale streamed on Disney+ this week, and its post credits scene delivered a huge surprise: Wanda Maximoff is alive, and she is with Doctor Doom. That alone makes the Scarlet Witch’s return in Doomsday feel all but certain.
But as ComicBook.com points out, adding the whole series to the watch list could hint at more than Wanda. Fans are now wondering if Vision and Wanda’s sons, Billy and Tommy Maximoff, could play a role in the movie, possibly as part of a search for Wanda. In the comics, Billy and Tommy go looking for their mother and find her with Doom, with no memory of who they are.
To be clear, none of these characters have been officially confirmed for Avengers: Doomsday. The watch list update could simply be Marvel making sure fans see the scene that brought Wanda back.
Did Anthony Mackie Already Spill the Beans?
The watch list change comes just days after Captain America himself may have let something slip. In an interview with ET about filming Doomsday, Anthony Mackie said, “I got to hang out with Paul Bettany, who I love,” as reported by CinemaBlend.
Bettany plays Vision, and he has not been officially announced for the film. Marvel has not commented, and Bettany has previously said casting news is up to Kevin Feige. Put the Mackie comment together with the watch list update, though, and a Maximoff family reunion in Doomsday is starting to look more likely.
The Full Countdown to Avengers: Doomsday Watch List
If you want to get caught up before December 18, here is Marvel’s lineup of recommended titles on Disney+, according to Soap Central:
- X-Men
- X2: X-Men United
- Captain America: The First Avenger
- The Avengers
- Avengers: Infinity War
- Avengers: Endgame Encore
- Loki Seasons 1 and 2
- Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

Avengers: Endgame Encore, with new scenes that set up Doomsday, just arrived on Disney+ today. You can read more in our post on Avengers: Endgame Encore coming to Disney+, and catch up on the VisionQuest finale with our post on VisionQuest Finale Night.
What It Could Mean for Wanda’s Story
If the movie follows the comics, a reunion may not be a happy one at first. A Wanda who has lost her memories might not recognize Vision or her sons at all, which could set up a bigger family story heading into Avengers: Secret Wars. For now, we will have to wait and see.
