With WandaVision getting ready to premiere this weekend on Disney+, I recently got to speak with Elizabeth Olsen about making Marvel's first Disney+ series During the interview she talked about how the show is a big swing for Marvel, how the curtain gets pulled back a little further in every episode, if WandaVision could get a second season, and more. In addition, with Olsen currently filming the Doctor Strange sequel, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, she talked about what it’s been like working with director Sam Raimi in London.
As most of you know from the trailers, WandaVision takes place after the events of Avengers: Endgame, focusing on Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch (Olson) and Vision (Paul Bettany). I was able to see the first three episodes and they all take place in an alternate version of a classic sitcom. The first episode starts in the 1950’s and each one pulls back the curtain on what’s really going on bit by bit. You’ve definitely never seen anything like WandaVision and I cannot wait to see where it’s all going. The series also stars Kathryn Hahn, Kat Dennings, Teyonah Parris, and Randall Park. For more on WandaVision here's the latest footage and details on the show's various theme songs.
Check out what Elizabeth Olsen had to say below and further down is exactly what we talked about. WandaVision premieres with the first two episodes January 15th and then is weekly until it’s over.
