VisionQuest Last Trailer Reveals The Villain: Jocasta

Jocasta was a part of the road of creation that began with Henry Pym and ran via Ultron and the Imaginative and prescient. Ultron created her to be his feminine companion (or “bride”), as his Hank Pym programming yearned for a robotic model of Pym’s associate, Janet van Dyne/The Wasp.

We don’t but know the complete particulars of how the MCU is adapting Jocasta, nevertheless it’s not exhausting to think about Ultron utilizing her as a backup plan. She is going to presumably be making an attempt to have an effect on Ultron’s resurrection within the bodily world, which might additionally require Ultron’s core program that Imaginative and prescient is carrying round in his head.

Actress T’Nia Miller (Gangs of London, Basis, The Haunting of Bly Manor) will play Jocasta in VisionQuest.

This one shot of the trailer has MCU followers considering that Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch is coming again in VisionQuest. However look intently: it doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to determine that we’re seeing Jocasta making her entrance. The purple sure in that elevator shot and the purple eyes within the full photographs of the robotic villain are a match. Case closed.

That mentioned: I personally imagine VisionQuest will embrace some credit scene that does tease Wanda’s resurrection and return in Avengers: Doomsday. However that’s simply me.
