While Bettany will lead Vision Quest, that is not the only MCU project that could see White Vision appear. In fact, the character could first return for a small role in Agatha: Darkhold Diaries. The series will connect to WandaVision through Kathryn Hahn's Agatha Harkness, and with Joe Locke rumored to play an older version of one of Wanda and Vision's sons, Billy, it would make sense for Bettany to be involved.
With the MCU's packed schedule and all the delays caused by the 2023 Hollywood strikes, Bettany could also return as White Vision in a team-up film. Avengers: The Kang Dynasty could include the character, with Vision making a small appearance that leads into Vision Quest and a return in Avengers: Secret Wars. With no official details confirmed for Vision Quest, it remains to be seen how Bettany's Vision will continue in the MCU.

WHERE TO WATCH
WandaVision, the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s first TV show on Disney+, first aired in 2021. The series kicked off the MCU’s Phase 4 and brought back Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff, aka the Scarlet Witch, and Paul Bettany as Vision. WandaVision strayed away from Marvel’s typical formula, this time formatting itself more like a classic sitcom as Wanda struggles to cope with the death of Vision.
