1.First MCU Series

This Disney+ series, WandaVision, will be the first Marvel Studio series to be part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A series that tells the story of Wanda and Vision's life after AVENGERS: ENDGAME. This will also serve as the opening for Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. 

Meaning, this series will play an important role in other Phase Four Marvel Cinematic Universe films such as DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS. Not only that, Wanda, played by Elizabeth Olsen, will appear in the second Doctor Strange film.

2. Introduction to the Film DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS

In addition to being the opening for Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the WandaVision series serves as the opening for the second film starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS. Both possess magical powers, and Doctor Strange is expected to mentor Wanda or Scarlet Witch in controlling her powers. 

The WandaVision series will showcase Wanda's powers that have not been seen in previous Marvel Cinematic Universe films. Her immense power forces Doctor Strange to intervene, connecting the WandaVision series with DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS and other Phase Four Marvel Cinematic Universe films.

3. Source of the Same Power

In the comics, Wanda is a mutant with incredibly powerful abilities. Her powers are so terrifying that the X-Men struggle to face her. However, due to copyright issues, Marvel Studios cannot present the comic version of Wanda, as the X-Men copyright is owned by Fox.

Marvel Studios had to come up with a different approach and portrayed Wanda and her twin brother Pietro or Quicksilver as HYDRA volunteers to become superhumans. Wanda gets her power from one of the infinity stones, namely the Mind Stone. The Mind Stone itself is one of the infinity stones that is located in Vision's forehead all this time. This makes them have the same source of power, and also makes them understand each other.

4.House Of M

The WandaVision series is believed to show powers that have never appeared in previous Marvel films. Coupled with Vision's death in AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR, the House of M event will occur in the MCU. 

House of M is one of the major events that occur in Marvel comics. In the comics, Wanda experiences severe depression due to the loss of Vision and her loved ones. The uncontrollable depression makes Wanda use her powers to change the existing reality. Marvel Studios also wrote in the synopsis of this series that Wanda and Vision begin to suspect the world and reality they are living in.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe version of House of M will make phase four even more exciting. With the theme of multiverse and reality, WandaVision cannot be missed. Those are some interesting facts about the WandaVision series that will premiere on January 15, 2021, through the Disney+ platform. Watch the trailer here.
