“Welcome to WandaVision. Coming soon to Disney+. Marvel Studios’ captivating new series “WandaVision” stars Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany, and marks the first series from Marvel Studios streaming exclusively on Disney+.

The series is expected to explore various decades of television, with each episode paying homage to different eras of TV history. From the black-and-white 1950s to the colorful 1980s, WandaVision will take viewers on a nostalgic journey through time while unraveling a larger mystery. This innovative approach is a first for Marvel Studios and aims to offer something fresh and exciting for both long-time fans and newcomers.
The show will also set the stage for future MCU projects.
