What is WandaVision about?

One of the most alluring things about WandaVision is the fact that much of it remains a mystery. There haven’t been a massive amount of details released in terms of the show’s plot but the trailer did shed some light on what fans can expect from it.

Set after the events of Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, the show follows Wanda Maximoff as she and Vision move to a small suburban town after they get married. However, as fans of the MCU will know, Vision died in Infinity War, leaving us uncertain as to how he’s even alive in the series.

As the pair begin to suspect that all is not what it seems, a web of mystery and intrigue will unfold for us in what is bound of be six episodes of domestic bliss.

Check out the official synopsis:

"Marvel Studios’ WandaVision blends the style of classic sitcoms with the Marvel Cinematic Universe in which Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany)—two super-powered beings living their ideal suburban lives—begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems."
