Description
Terry Matalas breaks down Ultron's ending in Marvel's VisionQuest, including the post-credits scene, the character's complicated relationship with humanity, and the creative decisions behind the series.
In this Collider interview, VisionQuest writer and director Terry Matalas and Lauren Morais, who plays Lisa Molinari, discuss the Marvel series' biggest character moments, practical sets, hidden Easter eggs, and surprising behind-the-scenes stories.
Matalas explains why he wanted Ultron's story to end with an unanswered question, even after the character experiences a new sense of connection. He also discusses the importance of bringing Billy into the story at the right moment, the reunion with Vision, and Kevin Feige's reaction to the show's Ultra Vision sequence.
Morais shares how her Welsh roots influenced Lisa Molinari, including the decision to use her natural Cardiff accent after initially auditioning with other accents. She also explores Lisa's relationship with Tommy, why their friendship matters as much as their romance, and how the character's comic book origins informed her performance.
Plus, the pair discuss the massive practical Madripoor set, Easter eggs hidden by the production design team, and Morais' experience wearing a costume with extra arms while filming a fight scene with Paul Bettany.
