WANDAVISION from Marvel Studios (for Disney+) Announced at #SDCC2019

Introduced at the MARVEL Comic-Con Panel in Hall H at the 2019 San Diego Comic-Con as part of Marvel's "Phase 4" projects, was WANDAVISION (IMDb), which has a scheduled premiere in Spring 2021, on upcoming new streaming platform known as "Disney Plus" / "Disney+".

Besides the reveal of the show logo (above), this was what had happened:

- Actors Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany were introduced on stage. They will be reprising their roles in the movies.
- The show appears after "Avengers: Endgame", where Bettany's "The Vision" had died prior in "Avengers: Infinity War".
- A clip was screened.
- Actress Teyonah Parris was introduced on stage. She will play an adult "Monica Rambeau" (The character first appeared as a child in "Captain Marvel").
- The events of WandaVision will tie into another Marvel movie, "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness".


I can barely remember if anyone actually called the "Scarlet Witch" by that name, besides "Wanda". And while I do not doubt her "reality bending powers", we have not seen as much effectiveness of said power in recent outings, and look forward to her stretching her super-powered "legs" (no, that is not a pun on her late brother "quicksilver" :p) in this series, and in the Doctor Strange movie.

In comicbooks, her power is so devastating, it created a "House of M" event, where she essentially altered the ENTIRE REALITY to suit her narrative, and I do not think the average viewer could navigate such a happenstance, IMHO. And to be "fair", the "Witch" in her namesake seemed to carry pretty negative connotations and I wonder of they would continue forth in calling her such, or perhaps why we have "Wanda" her instead of "Scarlet Witch"... OR it would be fun to go down that path of the quasi-supernatural, because Marvel has not gone that route yet, except for with the upcoming Doctor Strange in his upcoming sequel "Multiverse of Madness", or even with the as-yet-completed horror-themed "New Mutants", which is now under their banner, since the purchase of FOX by Disney.

"Witchcraft is broken- and the Scarlet Witch is on a journey across the globe to fix it. From the back alleys of Manhattan, to the serene Greek Isles, to the bustling streets of Hong Kong, Wanda will have to face down her foes and find out who her true friends are. But as Wanda solves magical crimes and pieces witchcraft back together, the most important question remains: Who is the mastermind that broke it in the first place?" (comixology.com)

ALSO in the comicbooks, there was a mini series titled "Vision" (2015 - 2016) - written by Tom King, in which Vision basically crated a android family (like himself), and lived as "the family next door", and the first thing that came into mind when "WandaVision" was announced and somewhat vaguely described.

Has "Wanda" cracked so much she'd go into such a state of mental unbalance? Or had there "always" been a issue previous unnoticed in her celluloid appearances, but my feeble untrained eye? I've never been that convinced by her romance with The Vision in the first place, and could barely register any emotional connection to the Vision's death, so it is beyond my loveless brain to register LOL

I am intrigued to see how the filmmakers / writers will take this project too.

Surprisingly, without any specific reference, my own opinions and thoughts specifically pop into two comic book source storylines (mentioned above and below) ... So are we going to see an incarnation of "Plesantville"? Blending in with the manufactured cliched suburbia of "Edward Scissorhands"?

"The Vision wants to be human, and what's more human than family? He goes to the laboratory where he was created, where Ultron molded him into a weapon, where he first rebelled against his given destiny, where he first imagined that he could be more, that he could be good, that he could be a man, a normal, ordinary man. And he builds them. A wife, Virginia. Two teenage twins, Viv and Vin. They look like him. They have his powers. They share his grandest ambition or perhaps obsession: the unrelenting need to be ordinary. Behold The Visions! They're the family next door, and they have the power to kill us all. What could possibly go wrong?" (comixology.com)
