TheMCU TV showwas the first for the studio as Marvel started to expand beyond just movies. With the creation of Disney+,the MCU became able to test out different formats, with movies, TV shows, Special Presentations, animation, and shorts becoming part of Marvel Studios' output in recent years.
WandaVisionand other MCU TV series allowed characters who had not been given their chance yet in the spotlight to shine. AfterWandaVision,Olsen’s Scarlet Witch exploded in popularity, becoming one of the most popular characters in the MCU.WandaVision’s endingdid plenty of work to set up not only Wanda’s story but that of other key players in the series. While a formal season 2 for the series is not in the works, twoMarvel Studios projectspaint the perfect picture of howWandaVisionwill continue to impact the MCU years after release.
There Are 2 Confirmed WandaVision Sequel Series
Key Characters Are Returning
WhileWandaVisionseason 2 will not happen, the MCU actively has plans for two sequel projects to Marvel Studios' first TV series. The first of those isAgatha All Along, which got off to a great start, premiering on September 18 to good reviews. The show is headed by Kathryn Hahn, reprising her Agatha Harkness role fromWandaVision. After a series of different titles were revealed for theAgathaproject, includingDarkhold Diaries,House of Harkness,Agnes of Westview,Coven of Chaos, andThe Lying Witch with Great Wardrobe, Marvel revealedAgatha All Alongas the true title.
Agatha All Alongwill not be the only sequel series in the MCU forWandaVision. Recently, it was confirmed that aVision series remains in development at Marvel. The project was first reported in 2022. At the time, the Vision series was said to be titledVision Quest, withWandaVisionhead writer Jac Schaeffer returning to oversee the project. However, the recent update on the status of the series makes no mention of its previous title. Instead of Schaeffer,Star Trek: Picardexecutive producer Terry Matalas serves as the showrunner for the Vision series. Paul Bettany will return as Vision.
Why I Think Star Trek: Picard’s Terry Matalas Is Perfect For Marvel’s Vision
As a huge fan of Star Trek: Picard season 3, I can’t wait to see what showrunner Terry Matalas does with Marvel Television’s upcoming Vision series.
As its name clearly states, Marvel Studios’WandaVisionwas a show led by two characters, Olsen’s Wanda and Bettany’s Vision. However, only one of them has got an MCU follow-up at this time. After starring inWandaVision, Olsen returned as the Scarlet Witch inDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The project built onWandaVision’s ending, with Wanda searching throughout the multiverse for a reality where her twin sons were alive. With the Scarlet Witch seemingly dead at the end of the MCU movie,Agatha All Along— focused onWandaVision’s villain — andVisioncan keep the series' legacy alive.
Agatha All Along Expands The MCU’s Magic Corner In Exciting Ways
WandaVision Set Up A New Agatha
WandaVisionended with Agatha trapped. After breaking free of her Hex, Wanda realized the harm in what she was doing and freed the residents of Westview. The character bested Agatha Harkness in combat, trapping the evil witch as her fake, nosy neighbor Agnes persona in Westview for her part in playing with Wanda’s mind.Agatha All Alongfollows this plot as Agatha still believes she is Agnes at the beginning of the show, investigating a murder that looks suspiciously like the Scarlet Witch, until Joe Locke’s “Teen” and Aubrey Plaza’s Rio Vidal help her break free from the spell.
Everything We Know About Agatha All Along - The MCU’s WandaVision Spin-Off Explained
Agatha will see the return of Kathryn Hahn as Agatha Harkness alongside Aubrey Plaza and Joe Wicke. Here are all the details so far.
The series revolves around Agatha putting together a coven of witches to travel the Witch’s Road and regain the power she lost to Wanda inWandaVision,facing trials and tribulations along the way. Kathryn Hahn picks up right where she left off, making Agatha a fantastic choice to center a show on. The show has continuously built up the mystery of what actually happened to the Scarlet Witch, which could eventually open the door for Wanda to return to the MCU.
Agatha All Along’s Biggest Theory Continues WandaVision’s Tragic Ending
There are two big mysteries set up inAgatha All Along. One of them is regarding the death of Scarlett Witch, and the other is aboutwho Joe Locke is actually playing in the show.Every time Joe Locke’s character tries to tell someone who he is, a spell covers his mouth without him realizing that it is happening. Of course, this leads to Agatha and the other witches to not know who he is, instead referring to him as “Teen.”
Speculation has, inevitably, run wild and it seems like all signs point to Joe Locke’s “Teen” having a significant connection to Wanda.Agatha: All Alongepisode 3 also saw Teen outright state that “a lot happened” to him 3 years ago (when he was 13). That, of course, overlaps with the events of WandaVision, offering another big hint that Teen is Billy.
Marvel Finally Confirms Mephisto Exists In The MCU
A new Marvel release finally confirms Mephisto exists in the MCU, years after speculation of the demon’s introduction began with WandaVision.
Joe Locke’s “Teen” is speculated to be Billy, one of the two sons that Wanda conjured up during the events ofWandaVision,and Wiccan in Marvel Comics. This plot carried over intoDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madnessas Wanda scoured the multiverse to be with her children. If he really is Billy Kaplan, it’s unclear why he is much older this time around and how he came to meet up with Agatha. With Wanda seemingly dead at the moment, though, it makes it all the more tragic for her son to appear now.
The Vision Series Takes The Character Out Of The Scarlet Witch’s Shadow
WandaVision Saw One Of Its Leads' Popularity Rise
Bettany was great as Vision and White Vision inWandaVision; however, the MCU series did not put him on the same top shelf as it did Wanda. After the series, the Scarlet Witch became one of the most popular MCU characters. While Vision did get a nice bump in popularity with the fans, he is still a few steps below Olsen’s Scarlet Witch and other major MCU characters like Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and others. The reason for that is, whileWandaVisionwas a series focusing on two characters, it did lean more into being a Scarlet Witch project.
Vision: Everything We Know
WandaVision’s ending left a lot of loose ends, as it ended with White Vision fleeing Westview, but the Vision show will answer everything.
The MCU’s Vision series will now break free from that, allowing Bettany’s character to be the only one in the spotlight, even if Wanda plays a role somehow, which is possible, according to reports.WandaVisionended by setting up an interesting road for Bettany in the MCU. While the original Vision died — and the Vision from Wanda’s Hex ceased to exist — White Vision is still in the MCU.The Hex Vision shared his memories with White Vision, making it so that the character who was created based on the body of the original android could once again be whole.
Wanda Maximoff Is Likely To Return
The Scarlet Witch sacrifices herselfto destroy the Darkholds across the multiverse at theend ofDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. While the character is seemingly dead after the event, the last time Wanda is seen is when a huge flash of red light appears as Mount Wundagore crumbles. That could have been the Scarlet Witch teleporting herself out of harm’s way. Based on Wanda’s popularity, it is difficult to believe that the character is really dead, and the twoWandaVisionsequel series could be Marvel’s way of setting up her return.
First isAgatha All Along. With Agatha’s vendetta against the Scarlet Witch, Billy’s secret mission on the Witches' Road could very well tie back to his mother. That could also be one of White Vision’s goals in the Vision series, alongside striking a balance between his memories.The project is rumored to feature an adaptation of “The Children’s Crusade"arc from Marvel Comics, which featured Billy and the Young Avengers looking for her, and that means the twoWandaVisionsequel series could culminate in her 2026 return.
