WandaVision to explore the origins of Scarlet Witch's powers

 

Looks like fans are going to get a lot of answers about the origins of Wanda Maximoff aka the Scarlet Witch's powers when "WandaVision" premieres on Disney + on January next year, as Marvel Studios head and MCU architect Kevin Feige has teased in a feature by Empire that Elizabeth Olsen's character will be fleshed out as her romance with Paul Bettany's Vision continues in a seemingly fantasy alternate reality that more or less was created by her.

“If you look at the Infinity Saga, I don’t think any single person has gone through more pain and trauma than Wanda Maximoff. And no character seems to be as powerful as Wanda Maximoff. And no character has a power-set that is as ill-defined and unexplored as Wanda Maximoff,” MCU boss Kevin Feige tells Empire. “So it seemed exploring that would be worthwhile post-Endgame. Who else is aware of that power? Where did it come from? Did the Mind Stone unlock it?”

WandaVision will debut on Disney + on December 15.

ICYMI: WandaVision will debut in Disney + on January 2021

 

As fans held out to hope that the series would possibly air before the year ends on Disney's new streaming service, Marvel Studios and Disney have officially confirmed that "WandaVision" will instead premiere on Disney + in the middle of January next year instead. This makes 2020 only the second year without any representation for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as the first time was in 2009 following the release of "Iron Man" and "The Incredible Hulk" the previous year and no return for the saga until the release of "Iron Man 2" in 2010.

While that certainly is a bummer for some, the wait won't be so long and we'll get our chance to see Wanda Maximoff and Vision's alternate reality warping TV series in a few months. This will also set up the upcoming Doctor Strange sequel "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" - where Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda is expected to play a big role in the Benedict Cumberbatch sequel following her adventures with Paul Bettany's Vision.

WandaVision is scheduled to start streaming on Disney + on January 15, 2021.
