Todd Stashwick is hopping onto the Marvel bandwagon, and this time, it’s not just for a cameo in a superhero’s daydream! The 55-year-old star of Star Trek: Picard is reportedly suiting up for the upcoming Vision spinoff series, as uncovered by the intrepid reporters at THR.
Now, we don’t know much about this mystical Marvel mystery yet. What we do know is that it’s all about the white version of Vision, who’s basically the “classic” Vision, if classic meant he’s still trying to figure out his life goals after WandaVision. The show is expected to be a riveting saga about Vision’s quest for a new purpose—think of it as a mid-life crisis with fewer convertibles and more superpowers.
Todd is set to play an assassin who’s on a mission to hunt down our dear android and the highly coveted tech he’s got hidden up his circuits. Imagine a robot ninja, but with fewer sensei training montages and more existential crises.
Todd will be rubbing elbows with Paul Bettany, who’s bringing his Vision back to life (again, but this time with extra pizzazz), and James Spader, who’s dusting off his Ultron voice to menace everyone once more.
And in a glorious twist of fate, Todd is reuniting with showrunner Terry Matalas—because nothing says “great TV” like reuniting with an old buddy to make robots and superheroes behave in the most dramatic ways possible.
Get ready for the Vision series, which will kick off filming in early 2025 in England—where everyone’s hoping that the weather will be as epic as the plot twists.
