Released on Disney+ not long after Endgame, WandaVision is widely considered the strongest story Marvel has produced in the last five years. The series explores Wanda Maximoff’s (Elizabeth Olsen) intense grief following Vision’s (Paul Bettany) death. To cope, she creates a fabricated reality in the town of Westview, bringing Vision back to life and giving herself the family she desires. The show’s popularity spawned follow-up projects like Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Agatha All Along, and VisionQuest, all of which expand on WandaVision’s storyline. However, despite the compelling narrative threads introduced in WandaVision, the Marvel Cinematic Universe hasn’t fully capitalized on what made the show so special. While Wanda’s transformation into the Scarlet Witch is a particularly interesting development in her character, it hasn’t yet had a significant impact on the broader MCU.
