In the 2021 Disney+ series "WandaVision", the ship of Theseus is brought up at a critical point in the climactic battle between Wanda's Vision and White Vision. Originally, the android Vision was killed by Thanos in . A few weeks later, Wanda created a new version of him, with his original personality and emotions, but no true body outside of the Hex in Westview, New Jersey. Meanwhile, S.W.O.R.D. repaired Vision's original body, but this version lacked emotions, memories, personality, and color. S.W.O.R.D. sends in this new White Vision to assassinate Wanda and her created Vision. As the fight between the androids takes them into the local library, Wanda's Vision directly references the thought experiment and recites it in an attempt to resolve the conflict diplomatically and philosophically. The two Visions explore the paradox of their shared identity, coming to an understanding that neither of them can be the true Vision, yet both must be the true Vision. Wanda's Vision overrides White Vision's S.W.O.R.D. protocols and restores his memories to him, and White Vision flees the battle, presumably to reevaluate everything that had happened to him up until this point in the franchise.
