Ruaridh Mollica hopes a future Marvel story will explore Tommy Maximoff’s bisexuality after the character’s journey in VisionQuest. The actor plays Tommy, also known as Speed, in the WandaVision spinoff, whose first season ends with the episode “Forever.”
Mollica’s comments offer an insight into his understanding of Tommy rather than an announcement of another MCU appearance, which has not been confirmed. They also arrive at a significant point for a character whose story has developed across three connected Marvel series.
What Mollica hopes to explore about Tommy
In an interview with ScreenRant, Mollica said of the character: “I think Tommy knows he’s bi.” The actor, who is bisexual himself, hopes that aspect of Tommy will be explored in the future.
The distinction between that hope and what appears on screen matters. ScreenRant reports that Tommy’s bisexuality is neither established nor explored in VisionQuest. Mollica’s view gives audiences his perspective on the character, but it does not turn an unaddressed aspect of Tommy’s identity into a storyline in the series.
For viewers interested in LGBTQ+ representation, his comment is also a reminder that an actor can bring a personal understanding to a role without every part of that understanding being made explicit in the finished show. Mollica has identified something he would like a later story to take up; whether it does so remains a separate question.
The finale marks the end of the first season of VisionQuest, with “Forever” serving as its eighth episode. Mollica’s hopes look beyond that ending, but they do not specify where or how a subsequent story would address Tommy’s sexuality.
How Tommy’s story connects the Marvel shows
Story context: The following paragraphs discuss developments in WandaVision and Agatha All Along.
VisionQuest is the concluding series in a television trilogy that began with WandaVision and continued with Agatha All Along. Its place in that sequence gives Tommy’s role a context that reaches beyond the events of his own show.
WandaVision brought Elizabeth Olsen’s Scarlet Witch and Paul Bettany’s Vision together for a story set in Westview. The nine-episode series was part of the MCU’s early run of original Disney+ shows. Wanda and Vision’s children were created through magic, tying the family’s existence to the events in Westview.
When Wanda freed the town, it appeared that the children were gone. Agatha All Along later revealed that Billy had survived, with his soul inhabiting Billy Kaplan’s body. Joe Locke plays the teenage Billy. Tommy was subsequently saved, allowing the other Maximoff twin’s story to continue in VisionQuest.
The middle series also carried forward another part of WandaVision: Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness. After appearing in the earlier show, Agatha became the central figure of Agatha All Along. The spinoff connected her story with Billy’s survival, while VisionQuest gives Tommy a prominent place in the final part of the trilogy.
In VisionQuest, viewers follow Tommy’s journey as Thomas Shepherd and as the son of Vision and Scarlet Witch. That dual context makes him more than a new figure arriving at the end of the sequence: his story is connected to the family introduced in Westview and to developments that continued in the intervening series.
The progression helps explain the interest in what could come after “Forever.” The trilogy has moved from introducing Wanda and Vision’s children, through establishing Billy’s survival, to placing Tommy in a central role. Mollica’s comments suggest an aspect of that character he would like to see developed, even as the connected run of shows reaches its conclusion.
