How much of an actor ends up in the superhero they play? For VisionQuest star Ruaridh Mollica, the answer is quite a lot. In a chat with SFX Magazine, he addressed whether Tommy Maximoff’s bisexuality, a part of the character in the comics, will appear on screen.
| Detail | Info |
|---|---|
| Series | VisionQuest |
| Streaming on | Disney+ |
| Premiere | October 14, 2026 |
| Actor | Ruaridh Mollica (MCU debut) |
| Character | Tommy Maximoff (Tommy Shepherd) |
| Co-stars | Paul Bettany, James Spader, Emily Hampshire, Todd Stashwick, James D’Arcy |
What Mollica Said About Tommy’s Sexuality?
Mollica said he isn’t sure whether Tommy’s sexuality will be referenced explicitly in the series. As a bisexual actor himself, he hopes it comes through naturally in the character’s personality and sense of self, and that it can be explored in the future. In the comics, Tommy has relationships with both men and women, including David Alleyne (Prodigy) and Lisa Molinari (Coat of Arms). Lauren Morais plays Lisa in VisionQuest, which hints that an early storyline between them may appear.
A Strong Mentor in Paul Bettany
Mollica described Paul Bettany as a real anchor. Bettany did his screen test with him before he even got the part, and he helped Mollica settle his nerves during the first days of filming and rehearsal. Having an MCU veteran of 18 years by his side, he says, made all the difference.
VisionQuest: Practical Sets and a Human Approach
| Topic | What Mollica Shared |
|---|---|
| Sets | Almost everything was practically built, like on WandaVision and Agatha All Along |
| Fitness | He went to the gym a bit but skipped any extreme superhero regime |
| Tone | Showrunner Terry Matalas wanted characters to feel as human as possible |
What It Could Mean for the MCU?
Tommy and Billy are both expected to matter to a future Young Avengers team, which Ms. Marvel hinted at in The Marvels. The Direct notes that if Marvel moves ahead with a Young Avengers project, it might be the best place to explore Tommy’s relationships more fully, including Prodigy. That’s speculation for now. The MCU has already echoed some of Mollica’s real-life traits, such as his ethnicity, in the character, which makes a closer alignment possible.
VisionQuest is billed as the culmination of the WandaVision trilogy and follows Bettany’s Vision on a journey of self-discovery.
