Synopsis

Gary and Tom have been friends since birth. They have many shared experiences and developed similar outlooks on the world. A world, which they feel, is quick to reject anything that does not appear to fit in. A superficial world. Gary and Tom feel they are misfits because they have no desire to conform.

At college together, studying courses that they have long lost their enthusiasm for, on the last day of the autumn term, 6 months before their final exams, they decide to leave it all behind.

However taking advantage of their media studies course they record their last day for prosperity. Intending to repay the cruel instigators of their often humiliating time spend studying, they line up a dazzling array of practical jokes, pranks and wind-ups.

Attempting to conceal their actions and avoid the attention of a potentially violent gang of "popular" students proves just a little bit too much, with disturbing consequences, ensuring that their last day leads to "The Big Finish" that they weren't exactly looking for.

Marvel Television’s VISIONQUEST is an all-new original series screening on Disney+, which concludes the epic trilogy that began with 2021’s ground-breaking, award-winning WANDAVISION and 2024’s acclaimed AGATHA ALL ALONG. Vision, rebooted and having escaped from those who sought to weaponise him, has been in hiding. Searching for new meaning, he consults the AI personas embedded in his programming, including Friday, Edith, Jarvis, and the infamous Ultron. His discreet existence ends when a bounty placed on his head thrusts him on the run with Thomas Shepard, a mysterious boy who may be Vision’s son, reincarnate. As Vision evades capture, he must confront his nature, resist Ultron's influence, and unravel the enigma that is his young companion if he’s to survive.
