Marvel Brings Back Baddie From 2008's Iron Man for MCU Vision Quest Series

Author : Oliver Update:Feb 28,2025

Marvel's Vision Quest series is reportedly resurrecting a villain from the very first MCU film, Iron Man.

Deadline reports that Faran Tahir will reprise his role as Raza Hamidmi al-Wazar, the Afghan terrorist leader who held Tony Stark captive in the opening scenes of the 2008 film. Al-Wazar's betrayal by Obadiah Stane (Jeff Bridges) marked his last MCU appearance until now.

Similar to Samuel Sterns' (The Incredible Hulk) reappearance in Captain America: Brave New World, al-Wazar's return in Vision Quest (starring Paul Bettany as White Vision) is a surprise. The series currently lacks a release date.

Initially portrayed as a generic terrorist leader, al-Wazar's backstory was enriched in MCU Phase 4. His group was subtly linked to the Ten Rings, a connection significantly expanded upon in 2021's Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. This suggests a retroactive inclusion of al-Wazar as a Ten Rings commander. Given Shang-Chi's open ending, a connection to Vision Quest through this character seems plausible.

However, Vision Quest might also explore lesser-known MCU elements, similar to Deadpool & Wolverine's approach to the discarded Fox Marvel universe.

The series will also reportedly feature the return of James Spader as Ultron, his first appearance since Avengers: Age of Ultron. Details about the show remain scarce.
