At the end of WandaVision’s eighth episode, it appears that SWORD is bringing Vision back, but the colors indicate that it is a different robot.
WARNING: The following contains spoilers for WandaVision Episode 8, “Before”, which is now airing on Disney +.
The eighth episode of WandaVision ended with a huge fan-favorite moment from the comics when SWORD unveiled its new weapon; a ghostly white vision, reconstructed using remnants of Wanda’s witch powers, stolen thanks to the espionage drone that moved through the magical barrier of Westview.
The White Vision comes from the West Coast Avengers comics, where the U.S. government failed and erased Vision. When the Avengers regrouped, they did not have the brainwaves available to give emotions and empathy. This version can also play like the Anti-Vision of another earth that converts the bodies with the White Vision to infiltrate the Avengers. WandaVision might show a Vision vs. Vision battle in the last episode. However, some clues suggest that something else is going on here, and this new White Vision may not even be Vision at all – it could be Ultron itself.

The colors of each robot’s “soul” have always been different. Vision is yellow-orange, thanks to the Mind Stone that gave it life. The White Vision composed by SWORD director Tyler Hayward has a blue color that made this Vision haunting, meaning it can be more than just a loving tribute to the classics. West Coast Avengers version of the synthezoid. It can all go back to Avengers: Age of Ultron and the battle between JARVIS and Ultron.
Before Vision was a synthezoid that worked with the Avengers, he was the AI that Tony Stark used to get everything done, and basically acted as Stark’s computer assistant. In Age of ultron, the titular villain came online for the first time. When JARVIS greeted him, Ultron attacked and the two had a massive cyber fight. This battle was shown by the inside of the computer network, with JARVIS represented by yellow-orange colors and Ultron by blue-white colors. The battle then moved beyond the computer system, with the Ultron attacking and eventually taking over, destroying JARVIS and becoming sentent.
Because the colors of Ultron and Vision are already established, WandaVision might have tipped all his hat off about what fans can expect in the season finale of the Disney + series. Because SWORD’s Vision matches the colors of the robot villain, he can eventually become Ultron.
Because James Spader is going to be in the show, it seems all the more likely that Ultron will show up. With the colors standing upright WandaVision, it will come as no surprise to see how the two creatures created by Stark catch up with each other in the eventual rematch of the most powerful robots of the MCU.
WandaVision was written by Jac Schaeffer and directed by Matt Shakman, and Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch, Paul Bettany as Vision, Randall Park as Agent Jimmy Woo, Kat Dennings as Darcy Lewis, Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau and Kathryn Hahn as Agnes .
