New Vision Series Casting

On the 31st of May, LRM Online reported that James D’Arcy is reprising his Agent Carter role of Jarvis, though it seems to be unclear if this is the human version or the AI one.

They also reported that Todd’s assassin character is [inappropriately] named “Paladin”. His role in the show hasn’t changed and he’s still the bad guy. Or at least, he’s after Vision for the android’s tech for undoubtedly nefarious reasons. Seven of Nine would like a word.

And then on the 6th of June, Deadline reported that Todd’s fellow 12 Monkeys cast mate Emily Hampshire has joined the Marvel Vision series, making it quite the reunion (given that Vision’s showrunner is Terry Matalas).

Emily is believed to be playing the sophisticated artificial intelligence E.D.I.T.H. (Even Dead, I’m The Hero), the augmented reality security and defence system created by Tony Stark and bequeathed to Peter Parker following Stark’s death.

The series’ official title still hasn’t been announced, but Todd said at EM-Con that it isn’t called Vision Quest. Given that would be cultural appropriation and icky, I’m very glad!
