Nerd butts are going to be firmly planted in theater seats with the release of ‘Avengers: Endgame’, and while Kevin Feige and Disney are remaining hush-hush about the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we know plans are in place to further expand, including on television. At the recent Disney+ press conference, Feige confirmed that ‘Falcon and Winter Soldier’ was on its way, along with ‘WandaVision’ a series that would focus on Elizabeth Olsen’s character (but wait, she’s dead, isn’t she?) and Paul Bettany’s Vision (but wait, he’s dead, isn’t he?).

At the premiere of ‘Avengers: Endgame’, Olsen spoke to Variety and spilled a little tea about her upcoming series, stating:
“There’s quite a few other comic books that we’re pulling from and it’s gonna be Wanda and Vision. And I think at the Disney+ launch chat they showed a photo of us in the 50s, and I think that’s a good teaser. It’s gonna be really fun. I’m really excited.”
These Marvel shows on Disney+ are designed as miniseries, and Olsen went on to reveal that ‘WandaVision’ will be six episodes long. (Maybe.)
“I think it’s gonna be a total of six hours. I don’t know what the episodes are.”
Well, one thing that the shows have to figure out is how at least one of its stars comes back from the dead.

Also, I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t point out that Olsen once complained that her Scarlet Witch costume showed too much cleavage, and yet… I’m just sayin’.
Also, I don’t believe that she has ever actually been called “Scarlet Witch” in the movies. That’s not bad or good, but… I kinda hate that this ‘X-Men’ norm (Kitty Pryde, Jean Grey) has spread.
Are you excited to follow the adventures of Wanda and Vision on a TV series?
