WandaVision Preview: A "Signal" That Something's Wrong with Reality

With less than two weeks to go until the reality-altering drama that is Paul Bettany's Vision and Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch's life premieres on Disney+, WandaVision is offering viewers another preview of Marvel Studios' first live-action MCU series for the streaming service. As we've seen in previous previews, Wanda and Vision are living the "happy married life" in the almost-too-good-to-be-true Westview- in fact, you can pretty much remove the "almost" because the town is letting the couple spiral through a series of different, decade-specific sitcom scenarios to find their "happily ever after." But like most things, it comes with a price- one that all of reality appears to be paying. And if our reality can't get through to Wanda and Vision in time? There won't be much of a "Phase IV" for Marvel fans to worry about.

"Wanda Maximoff': Wanda Maximoff made her debut in Avengers: Age of Ultron as a powerful adversary of The Avengers, only to become an even more powerful ally. Wanda found strength in herself and in her extraordinary relationship with one highly unique individual, Vision. Marvel Studios: Legends explores Wanda's story as she grapples with cruel hardships and loss, a chaotic power that she strives to control, and shifting loyalties from those she trusts most.

"Vision": Born into the world in Avengers: Age of Ultron Vision chooses to fight on the side of humanity, though he himself is an artificial form of life. Marvel Studios: Legends follows Vision on his quest to understand humans more fully, evolving to be more like them, as he explores a romantic relationship with Wanda Maximoff in Captain America: Civil War. All of this leads to his final moments, as he makes the ultimate sacrifice for mankind, leaving those he loved to an uncertain future.
