WandaVision May Be More Important Than Avengers Endgame
Marvel is taking a huge gamble with WandaVison as their initial release for the opening act to Phase 4. While some may consider Spider-Man: Far From Home as the first, it’s WandaVison that will set the standard. While Spider-Man took place after the events of Avengers: Endgame, the movie didn’t touch on too much after the deadly events. But WandaVision will be a bit different.
With its release Friday, the biggest question Marvel fans want to know is what to expect?
According to reports, the show will take place after the events of Endgame. That reason alone is why fans are excited to see how Marvel handles the storyline and those after.
Vision is set to star in it alongside his girlfriend Scarlett Witch. For fans, the last time they saw Vision alive was in Infinity War. Vision was killed by Thanos and didn’t make an appearance in Endgame. But here he is with his own show and he’s alive. So, how did this happen?
There was no mention of Vision being brought back so the writers must tread cautiously here. The importance of this cannot be overlooked or ignored. For Marvel it’s important, that if Vision was brought back, then maybe a character like Black Widow could be floating around the MCU as well, still alive. This is why WandaVision is so important for the future of the MCU.
With COVID-19 wrecking havoc over the world, production was stopped on The Falcon and The Winter Soldier which was supposed to be the first show released on Disney+ for Marvel. However, plans changed and WandaVision was given the green light. With Marvel taking a year off, WandaVison is the first real action Marvel fans will see. Now, after the disappointment of Wonder Woman 84, superhero fans are thirsty for something to get things back on track.

WandaVision is sure to have plenty of emotions but if Marvel is still keeping pace with their norm, then fans can expect plenty of action. The same reason Endgame was important is the same reason WandaVision is important. Endgame was the ending to a beautiful story but WandaVision the beginning of their next chapter.
Just imagine if Endgame was a bust. Years of movies thrown away by a terrible ending. This is what WandaVision has to live up to. Not just the beginning of a new sage but the continuation of excellence.
