WandaVision bowed out with a finale that left viewers in shock. Spoilers for WandaVision episode 9 ahead…
WandaVision is no stranger to leaving audiences asking questions. In fact, it has thrived on that since it began, reeling us in with mystery after mystery only to pull the rug out from under us when we’re least expecting it.
The Disney Plus show came to an end with a season finale that was nothing short of jaw-dropping as Wanda – in full Scarlet Witch mode – went up against the villainous Agatha Harkness in order to protect her loved ones from the evil witch’s schemes. To make matters worse, S.W.O.R.D. Director Tyler Hayward sent the White Vision in to neutralize Wanda’s Vision while the organization soon followed their corrupt leader into Westview.
WandaVision tied up some loose ends, but even in its series finale, it had no intention of giving its viewers a week off from asking questions. Yes, there were some loose ends that were intentionally left ambiguous, setting up future installments within the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the process.
With that in mind, let’s look at some of the questions we’ve been left with as a result.
5. What happened to White Vision in WandaVision?
The White Vision’s arrival upended Wanda’s plans even more so as the Scarlet Witch was busy fighting Agatha Harkness when he showed up. In spite of his attempts to kill both her and Wanda’s Vision, SWORD’s sentient weapon flew off into the sky after the latter engaged in an intellectual conversation with him about which one of them was the real Vision and even restored his memories.
What happened to this version of Vision and why did he leave? He’s no longer being controlled by Hayward and SWORD and, with his memories, he has complete freedom to do what he likes. However, does this Vision retain the emotions? If he did, surely he would have went to Wanda.
Could we be looking at the return of the original Vision without his emotions. This would pay tribute to the comic book arc and allow both characters to go their own way for the moment before an eventual reunion. Maybe we could get a WandaVision season 2 then, who knows?
4. Have we seen the last of Agatha Harkness?
Agatha Harkness took great pleasure in wreaking havoc in Wanda’s blissful life in Westview before she got fed up waiting and pushed the grieving woman in the directions she wanted her to go. Upon learning that she was dealing with the Scarlet Witch, Agatha attempted to use her own abilities to siphon Wanda’s powers, claiming them for herself.
That plan ultimately backfired as she ended up pushing Wanda to complete her transformation into the Scarlet Witch, allowing the Avenger to defeat her. But Wanda proved that being the more powerful witch didn’t obstruct her kind heart as she allowed the villain to live. Instead of imprisoning her in a physical prison, however, she sentenced her to a life as Agnes the Neighbor in Westview.
Agnes told Wanda that she’d need her help because of the great evil she had unleashed and the Scarlet Witch reminded her that she’d know where to find her. Of course, this leaves us wondering if Wanda will attempt to track Agatha down in the future and if we’ll see her again should a great evil rise to the surface ahead of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
3. What’s next for Monica?
Monica Rambeau may have been WandaVision‘s MVP. From the moment she figured out what was going on in the Hex – and outside of it too – she relentlessly tried to appeal to Wanda’s better judgement, ignoring Director Hayward’s confrontational approach so that she could save the lives of everyone involved.
With Darcy Lewis and Jimmy Woo backing her up (along with some fancy new super-powers), Monica achieved her goal and helped Wanda and the Vision family defeat the S.W.O.R.D. soldiers. However, afterwards she was contacted by a Skrull who advised her that an old friend of her mother’s wanted to talk with her.
It’s heavily implied that this friend is Nick Fury – who we last saw in Spider-Man: Far From Home when he was in space. Naturally, this has fans curious as to what this means for Monica Rambeau and when we’ll see her next. We know she’s going to be in Captain Marvel 2 but, if Fury and S.W.O.R.D. are involved, could she also play a part in Secret Invasion?
Wherever she turns up, more Monica is definitely a good thing!
2. How will Wanda return in Doctor Strange 2?
It has been common knowledge for some time now that Elizabeth Olsen will be bringing Wanda back in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The Scarlet Witch is expected to resurface in the movie as she and Doctor Stephen Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) reunite in a movie that will either see the pair team up or face off against one another (or both!).
How will Wanda find herself crossing Strange’s path? Agatha did inform her that the Scarlet Witch is supposed to possess powers that even outmatch the Sorcerer Supreme. Following the Ancient One’s demise, it seems like Strange is now the MCU’s Sorcerer Supreme. Does that mean he and Wanda are set to put the Darkhold’s theory to the test?
If Wanda is about to go down a dark path, she may need Strange’s help to resist it. But that’s not all she may need his help with.
1. Are Tommy and Billy still alive?
One of the most heartbreaking moments from the WandaVision season finale came when Wanda and Vision tucked their twin sons, Tommy and Billy, into bed, knowing that when the Hex came down they would cease to exist. And, like many of us had wondered – and feared – that’s exactly what happened… or is it?
The post-credit scene in which Wanda was astral projecting so that she could study the Darkhold ended when the Scarlet Witch heard her children’s voices calling her for help. Yes, one of fans’ more hopeful predictions came true as it became clear that the kids’ journey was not going to end with WandaVision.
How they return and where they were calling her from remains to be seen, but the scene certainly suggested that Wanda will be going to whatever dimension – or, uh, earth – to rescue them.
Whatever questions you have about Billy and Tommy’s current status, it does feel like they’ll return at some point. After all, the Young Avengers need Wiccan and Speed!
All episodes of WandaVision are now available on Disney+.
