WandaVision was a mixed-up genre series presented by the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It’s a blend of classic television and the Marvel Cinematic Universe in which Wanda Maximoff and Vision; two super-powered beings living idealized suburban life and with time they begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems. The ‘vibranium-synthezoid’ avenger Vision (played by Paul Bettany) is precisely dead for the MCU.
Vision was incorporated from the Mind Stone but was brought to life by Tony Stark and Bruce Banner, uploading the core software of Stark’s AI, J.A.R.V.I.S., with energy provided by Thor. Paul’s MCU character is based on the colorless version of Vision that was a member of the Avengers and its west coast branch in the late 1980s and early 1990s in Marvel Comics. Following the dismantling of the original, red-yellow-and-green Vision, Hank Pym rebuilt him as the White Vision. He functioned purely on logic, which distanced him from the hero that Scarlet Witch and the Avengers had come to know.
Where did the ‘Colorless Vision’ come from?
White Vision’s energy beams were directed from an object in his forehead that looked similar to the Mind Stone. The original Vision was able to replicate the Mind Stone’s abilities because he was a magical manifestation of Scarlet Witch’s power and the Mind Stone itself, but the same explanation can’t apply to White Vision. It’s still not clear what that weapon was in White Vision’s head, but it certainly wasn’t the real Mind Stone.
When both Visions’ rays were locked, MCU Vision gave it everything he had, but he couldn’t hold up against the force of his opponent’s blast. Though the two appeared to be on an equal playing field physically, it’s their Mind Stones that set them apart during their battle. Both versions of Vision being powered by an Infinity Stone would explain why they’re able to fight with each other. Only a weapon that’s a product of another Infinity Stone should have been able to overpower the Mind Stone possessed by Westview’s Vision.
