Here it is! The long-awaited first trailer for WandaVision, starring Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany, bettern known in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as The Scarlet Witch and Vision. The Avengers super-couple are now living the idyllic American live in a quaint home -- or some kind of surrealist TV-themed nightmare. The show arrives on Disney+ "soon." It has long been expected for 2021, but given the delays on Marvel's The Falcon And The Winter Soldier, it's possible we'll see this one this year.
Marvel also dropped a new poster to go with the trailer, eerily depicting the multiversal identity crisis faced by our heroes:
WandaVision is a 2021 TV series developed for Disney+ spinning directly out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The show continues the romantic pairing Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff (The Scarlet Witch) and Paul Bettany's Vision. The show will also feature the adult version of Monica Rambeau (played by Teyonah Parris), who previously appeared as a child in the Captain Marvel movie. Other MCU alumni in the cast include Kat Dennings (Thor) and Russell Park (Ant-Man and the Wasp).
Matt Shakman of Game of Thrones fame is directing the series, which is written by Jac Schaeffer, who also penned the Black Widow script.
Disney+ provides this synopsis for the show: The series is a blend of classic television and the Marvel Cinematic Universe in which Wanda Maximoff and Vision--two super-powered beings living idealized suburban lives--begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems.
Word is that the events of this show will lead directly into the Doctor Strange sequel and will feature The Scarlet Witch.
