    VisionQuest At NYCC: White Vision, Ultron’s Return, And Tommy Confirmed

    On this Geek Freaks Headlines mini, we break down Marvel’s VisionQuest splash at New York Comic Con. Paul Bettany’s White Vision is positioned as the capstone to the WandaVision trilogy, with the series exploring memory versus emotion, a confirmed return for Ultron, and the reveal of Tommy Shepherd now aged up. We also talk through likely tie-ins with Agatha and Wiccan, and why this chapter matters for where the MCU is heading. Timestamps and Topics00:00 Vision takes the stage at NYCC and VisionQuest is framed as the capstone to WandaVision00:15 White Vision’s identity struggle and what “memories without emotion” means for the character00:33 Tommy Shepherd confirmed; Ruaridh Mollica steps in as the older Tommy00:50 Legacy AIs return: J.A.R.V.I.S. and F.R.I.D.A.Y.; James Spader back as Ultron in CG and human form01:05 Likely appearances and story links: Agatha, Wiccan, and a path to Scarlet Witch’s return01:23 Family themes and what this could signal for the MCU’s next phase Key Takeaways VisionQuest is presented as the concluding chapter of the WandaVision storyline, following Agatha All Along. White Vision holds Vision’s memories but can’t connect them to the emotions behind them, setting up a character-driven arc. Tommy Shepherd is officially in play, with Ruaridh Mollica confirmed in the role. Expect MCU legacy tech voices: J.A.R.V.I.S. and F.R.I.D.A.Y. are name-checked. James Spader returns as Ultron, including a human guise, hinting at mindscape and identity themes. Strong odds we see connective tissue to Agatha, Wiccan, and possibly Scarlet Witch. Memorable Quotes “They’re calling this the capstone to the WandaVision trilogy.” “White Vision has all the memories of normal Vision, but he doesn’t know how to tie them to the emotions.” “James Spader returning as Ultron, both in CG and human form.” Call To ActionEnjoyed the breakdown?

    Jumanji Sequel Starts Filming In November | Cast, Release Date, What To Expect

    Sony’s next Jumanji movie is officially on the runway. Filming begins in November in Los Angeles, with Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, and Karen Gillan back under director Jake Kasdan. New additions include Brittany O’Grady and Burn Gorman. The release date is set for December 11, 2026. If you’re new to the modern run, Jumanji reimagines the enchanted board game as a video game that pulls teens into avatar bodies played by the stars. The last two films were big holiday performers, so a mid December slot makes sense. I’ll cover casting confirmations, production updates, and any story clues as they land.

    A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms trailer breakdown and what to expect

    We unpack the debut trailer for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and set the table for new and returning fans. You’ll hear what the show adapts from George R. R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg stories, why the tone feels lighter than Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon, what to expect from the Ashford tournament, and how the smaller scale changes the feel of Westeros. We also flag key details to watch for without spoilers and share simple ways to get caught up before the premiere. 00:00 Introduction and quick context for the trailer00:14 Premiere date and season size00:28 Who are Ser Duncan the Tall and Egg00:41 A lighter tone and road story vibe00:56 Why the stakes are smaller and more personal01:09 What to expect at Ashford without spoilers01:28 The history backdrop and the Targaryen heir problem01:41 No big opening sequence and why that matters01:53 Where to start if you want to read the story first01:59 Closing thoughts The show premieres January 18, 2026 with a six episode first season. This is a character driven road story that follows Ser Duncan the Tall and his squire Egg. Expect a lighter tone with humor and smaller scale conflicts that still ripple across Westeros later. Do not expect dragon spectacles or sprawling palace intrigue. The focus is on people and choices. The Ashford tournament is the centerpiece of season one and sets many threads in motion. Newcomers can jump in without prior lore. Readers can enjoy extra context from the novellas or the comic adaptation. “This is going to be a lot lighter than I expected, with jokes and quips, and it’s going to be kind of a fun story.” “It’s about these guys on the road and some of the small choices they make that have big impacts later on.” “You won’t see big dragons. Dragons are gone at this point.” If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review Geek Freaks Headlines. Share the show with a friend and tag your thoughts with #GeekFreaks.

    Kali Reis Joins Resident Evil: Why This Casting Could Finally Give Fans the Movie They’ve Wanted

    In this quick update, we break down the latest Resident Evil film casting news and why it matters for the franchise. We cover Zach Cherry (Severance) and Kali Reis (True Detective: Night Country) joining the lineup alongside Austin Abrams, Paul Walter Hauser, and Johnno Wilson. We dig into why Reis feels built for this world, what Zach Cregger brings as a horror director, and why a brand-new story set in the game universe might be the right move for the big screen. 00:00 Casting update and who’s joined the film 00:08 Why Kali Reis is the standout choice for this universe 00:18 Director spotlight on Zach Cregger and his horror chops 00:24 New story in the Resident Evil world vs retelling the games 00:30 Hopes for set photos and early on-set vibes 00:34 Final thoughts and what we’ll watch for next Kali Reis brings a physical, grounded presence that fits the survival horror tone. Zach Cregger’s track record in horror points to a sharper, more atmospheric Resident Evil. The film won’t retell a specific game plot. A new story in the same universe gives the creative team room to surprise fans. Early production updates and set photos will be key to understanding the tone and visual style. “She feels like a video game character. I think she’s going to destroy any zombie that gets in her way.” “It’s not retelling any of the games. It’s a new story set in the world of the games.” “I’m so desperate for a good Resident Evil movie. It’s a hell of an IP.” If you enjoyed this episode, follow the show, leave a rating and review, and share it with a friend. Tag us with #GeekFreaksPodcast so we can repost your thoughts.
