VisionQuest soars with an IMDb record after that finale.

After a month-long emotional journey of White Vision (Paul Bettany), Tommy Maximoff (Ruaridh Mollica), and Ultron (James Spader), Marvel's Disney+ series concludes with an epic finale. With Vision finally accepting the loss and grief of his family after WandaVision, the Marvel synthezoid finally faced the Client, whose human avatar of Ultron turned out to be Phineas Horton's grandson. Audiences are reacting strongly to the final episode, which also marks the end of the WandaVision trilogy that launched in 2021.

With over 3200 ratings so far, the VisionQuest finale, "Forever," ties with Loki's season 2 finale, "Glorious Purpose," as the highest-rated Marvel episode on Disney+ ever at 9.5. Additionally, the last two episodes averaged at least 9.0, a rare feat for any Marvel show since it started running on Disney+. Critics and audiences praised the final episode for the Maximoff family reunion, the thematic payoff, the callback to WandaVision's sitcom style, Spader and Bettany's final-moment performances, and the post-credits shocker.

Highest-Rated MCU Episodes On Disney+	IMDb Rating
Loki season 2, episode 6, "Glorious Purpose"	9.5
VisionQuest episode 8, "Forever"	9.5
Daredevil: Born Again season 2, episode 8, "The Southern Cross"	9.4
Daredevil: Born Again season 2, episode 4, "Gloves Off"	9.3
VisionQuest episode 7, "Immolation"	9.0
Loki season 1, episode 4, "The Nexus Point"	9.0
Agatha All Along episode 4, "Death's Hand in Mine"	9.0
Daredevil: Born Again season 2, episode 5, "The Grand Design"	9.0

In fact, the VisionQuest post-credits scene may be a major contributing factor to the inflated IMDb score. While the first post-credits scene features the now-living Ultron staring out a window and holding a drive of Jocasta, the second confirms Wanda Maximoff's survival after she sacrificed herself in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The footage shows Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom saving the Scarlet Witch and taking control of her powers, setting up Avengers: Doomsday.

The revelation has sparked a frenzy across the internet, raising excitement for the upcoming Avengers movie to a new high. According to some reports, ticket sales ballooned after the episode, with the AMC theater app crashing.

Rearrange the movies into the correct US release order.

Beyond confirming the Scarlet Witch, the VisionQuest finale also brought an emotional conclusion to the WandaVision trilogy, including the long-awaited reunion between the Maximoff twins and their father, Vision. Despite the ups and downs of Marvel's Disney+ content, the WandaVision trilogy remained one of the most consistent shows, earning praise for its deep exploration of themes like grief, loss, and family. Episode "Forever" was no different, with Vision helping Ultron process his grief and understand human emotion after Jocasta's death at the hands of Virgil Horton.

Now, VisionQuest ends as the final Marvel Cinematic Universe project and last connection before the release of the highly anticipated Avengers: Doomsday. Although the studio has not formally confirmed whether Bettany would return in future Marvel projects, his colleague Anthony Mackie may have hinted at his return in the upcoming Marvel team-up movies. He told Entertainment Tonight, "I got to hang out with, you know, Paul Bettany, who I love."

Currently, Marvel Studios has not revealed whether there are plans for VisionQuest season 2 or any spinoffs related to the trilogy. In the meantime, the finale will have everyone talking for the next few weeks until December 18. Terry Matalas created and served as showrunner for VisionQuest, while Todd Stashwick, Lauren Morais, Orla Brady, Diane Morgan, Polly Frame, Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, and Emily Hampshire round out the supporting cast.

All eight episodes of VisionQuest are now streaming on Disney+. Avengers: Doomsday will release on December 18.
