Marvel's upcoming Vision series for Disney Plus has added another name to its cast – with Star Trek: Picard actor Todd Stashwick set to join Paul Bettany and James Spader on the show.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the Captain Liam Shaw star will play "an assassin who is on the trail of [the] android and the technology he possesses" in the series, which is helmed by Picard showrunner Terry Matalas.
Many details about the show – including an official title – have not yet been revealed, although it was previously referred to as Vision Quest.
What we do know is that Bettany and Spader will be reprising their MCU roles as Vision and Ultron, and that it is intended as the final part of a trilogy following WandaVision and the upcoming Agatha All Along.
