WandaVision: Wanda & Vision's "Happily Ever After" Gets Theme Songs
If there's one thing we do know about Disney+ and Marvel Studios' WandaVision, it's that Paul Bettany's Vision and Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch's attempts at a "happily ever after" marries life sends them through a reality-altering tour of sitcom lifestyles from the past 50+ decades. But while the previews have shown us that they have the looks down, there was something missing to make the creepy sitcom homage complete. Yes, that's right- some really memorable theme music. Or in this case, some very twisted takes on sitcom theme song standards. And now, viewers get a chance to sample some of it for themselves in the newest teaser "New Era."
So as Wanda and Vision's world continues spiraling down a reality-altering TV sitcom rabbit hole that could take the entire MCU with it, check out a sample of one of the original theme songs by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez:
