Marvel Studios' WandaVision is a blend of classic television and the Marvel Cinematic Universe in which Wanda Maximoff and Vision - two super-powered beings living idealized suburban lives - begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems. The series stars Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff, Paul Bettany as Vision, Kathryn Hahn as Agnes, and Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau, who was introduced to audiences in Captain Marvel. Kat Dennings will reprise her role as Darcy from Thor and Thor: The Dark World, and Randall Park will reprise his role as Jimmy Woo from Ant-Man and The Wasp.

Speaking about his character Vision's journey Actor Paul Bettany said, "Vision has always been a sort of amalgam of different people - J.A.R.V.I.S., Ultron, sometimes Stark - and now we've thrown a bit of Dick Van Dyke for good measure. At his core, Vision is - in my head, at least - about decency and kindness. Even from his days as J.A.R.V.I.S., he's always been becoming. Vision was born this omnipotent, naïve android, which is a weird combination, and he has always been growing and becoming - trying to understand what makes humans human, trying to understand love. This definitely feels like a culmination of that journey - an ending in some ways, and frankly, a new beginning."

WandaVision, the first Marvel Studios series created exclusively for Disney+ Hotstar Premium, is directed by Matt Shakman with Jac Schaeffer as head writer. The composer is Christophe Beck, and the theme (for certain episodes) is by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.
