Synopsis
Marvel Studios “WandaVision” blends the style of classic sitcoms with the Marvel Cinematic Universe in which Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany)—two super-powered beings living their ideal suburban lives—begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems.[2]
Plot
Following Avengers: Endgame, Wanda Maximoff is unable to accept the fact Vision is dead. As a result, she steals his body back from an organization known as S.W.O.R.D., and used her magic to create a reality bubble around the town of Westview. Within Wanda's world, Vision is revived, albeit without any memory except for his love for Wanda. He now believes they had always been a couple with strange powers. However, Wanda slowly loses control of her reality, as it constantly shifts into different eras of classic sitcoms. At the same time, S.W.O.R.D. is trying to find a way to neutralize Wanda to free the captive town, either peacefully or through termination.
During the week the Hex covering Westview stays up, Wanda finds herself pregnant and she soon gives birth to twin children, Tommy and Billy. Following the kids suddenly aging to 10 years, Wanda is visited by her brother Pietro who has returned with a new face. Later, it turns out that her neighbor Agnes is really a witch named Agatha Harkness and she has been manipulating Wanda the entire time.

Trivia
- The events of this series will be tied directly into Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness[3], much like the Loki series[9] and Spider-Man: No Way Home.[10]
- The poster featuring Wanda and Vision shows them in 1950's suburban setting, while a shadow silhouette can be seen in the background, resembling their comic book appearances.
- The official trailer for WandaVision amassed 53 million views online, within 24 hours, believed to be the highest draw online, for a streaming service’s series ad spot.[11]
- Starting with this series, future Marvel Studios series will be deeply connected with the MCU and, due to airing on Disney+, will all be aimed at a family audience.
- This is the first Marvel Cinematic Universe TV series to feature a theme song as the series intro.
- This TV series marks the fourth collaboration with songwriters Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez and score composer Christophe Beck after Frozen, Frozen Fever, and Frozen II.
- The episode titles refer to classic television sitcom terms and exclamations.
- The show takes place 3 weeks after Avengers: Endgame.
- All-New Halloween Spooktacular! doesn't have a 90s sitcom setup because the 90s didn't have any original takes on sitcoms and were still drawing from the 80s.
- Vision is shown to retain all his powers; albeit because he is animated by and drawing on Wanda's magic within the Hex. Proving again both their powers came from the Mind Stone.
