Summary:
- Two confirmed sequel series for WandaVision are on the way, featuring returning characters such as White Vision, Agatha Harkness, and more.
- These sequel series could pave the way for the Scarlet Witch’s return to the MCU.
WandaVision, Marvel Studios’ first TV show for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is reportedly getting two spin-off series three years after its debut. Starring Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff and Paul Bettany as Vision, WandaVision was a trailblazer for Marvel, expanding its reach beyond movies into the realm of TV shows.
With the creation of Disney+, Marvel has been able to experiment with different formats, leading to a diverse array of content including movies, TV series, Special Presentations, animation, and shorts.
Two Confirmed Spin-Off Series from WandaVision
While a second season of WandaVision isn’t happening, Marvel Studios is developing two new series to continue its legacy.
The first is Agatha All Along, set to premiere on September 18. Kathryn Hahn reprises her role as Agatha Harkness, and the series has gone through several title changes before settling on Agatha All Along.
The second series focuses on Vision. Initially reported in 2022 and titled Vision Quest, the project now has Terry Matalas of Star Trek: Picard as the showrunner, with Paul Bettany returning as Vision.
These spin-offs aim to continue the stories of the original WandaVision characters, keeping the series’ spirit alive.
Agatha All Along Expands the MCU’s Magical Universe
WandaVision ended with Agatha Harkness trapped in her nosy neighbor persona by Wanda. Agatha All Along will explore her quest to regain her powers and her true self.
Aubrey Plaza‘s character, rumored to play a significant role, talks to Agatha, who reveals that Wanda stripped her of her powers.
This sets the stage for Agatha to assemble her own coven and delve deeper into the magical aspects of the MCU, including the introduction of the Witches’ Road, accessible only by magic users.
Additionally, Joe Locke is rumored to play Billy Kaplan, one of Wanda’s children, potentially setting the stage for future storylines involving Wanda’s family.
Vision’s Spin-Off: Breaking Free from Wanda’s Shadow
Paul Bettany’s Vision will finally take center stage in his own series. While WandaVision significantly boosted the Scarlet Witch‘s popularity, Vision remained somewhat in her shadow.
The new Vision series will allow Bettany’s character to develop independently, although Wanda may still play a role.
The series picks up from WandaVision, where White Vision, who retained the memories of the original Vision, is still part of the MCU.
This spin-off will explore Vision’s journey towards becoming whole again and could potentially include elements from Marvel Comics’ “The Children’s Crusade” arc, featuring Billy and the Young Avengers.
Setting the Stage for the Scarlet Witch’s Return
The two spin-off series might pave the way for the Scarlet Witch’s return. In Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Wanda sacrificed herself to destroy the Darkholds across the Multiverse.
However, her fate remains ambiguous as a flash of red light suggests she might have teleported to safety. Given her popularity, it’s unlikely Wanda’s story is truly over. Agatha All Along and the Vision series could both lead to her eventual return, possibly culminating in 2026.
The continuation of WandaVision through these spin-offs highlights Marvel Studios’ commitment to expanding its universe while honoring its beloved characters. Fans can look forward to these new adventures and the potential reappearance of the Scarlet Witch in future MCU projects.
