Is this Wanda’s villain outfit, ready to take on Doctor Strange? Or is it just a new look she takes on briefly before coming to her senses, maybe with the help of her husband Vision (whether that’s the Westview or the White/Cataract version)? Speaking of… Who or what is the Scarlet Witch?Įlizabeth Olsen in a WandaVision poster (Disney)įans have pointed out that this look a bit like a costume glimpsed in a WandaVision poster (the shared belt buckle, apparently, as shown in this enhanced image) suggesting that this figure is Wanda glimpsing herself, and her future, so it seems likely we’ll see Wanda in this outfit by the end of the series finale. Unless of course she just gets turned into an evil witch who he has to fight. And it might behove her to get her magic under control in case she really hurts someone in the future – and then if she was already working with Strange, it makes sense that she’d get pulled into his next adventure. If Wanda did that without even trying, she’s dangerous. Working with Strange, Wanda might be able to master her powers, and prevent any more unintentional catastrophes like the Westview anomaly. Rather than Strange’s enemy (though we’re not ruling that out) maybe Wanda has gone to learn some basics of magic, which Agatha pointed out Wanda was entirely ignorant of. It’s his job!Īnd maybe, depending how WandaVision concludes this could explain Elizabeth Olsen’s already-confirmed Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness role. While Wanda may not have known she was doing magic, Agatha (Kathryn Hahn) could certainly recognise it, and given the scale of what Wanda pulled off it’s not hard to imagine Earth’s Sorcerer Supreme coming to check on this magical threat. In the comic-book storyline, Wanda’s attack on the Avengers concludes with the arrival of Doctor Strange, who had sensed great misuse of magic and is angered that nobody told him of Wanda’s recent issues.Įven Strange had believed Chaos magic wasn’t real, and had to battle Wanda into submission – and we can’t help but wonder whether something similar is set to happen towards the end of WandaVision.Īfter all, episode eight has confirmed that Wanda’s powers are at least partially based on magic, as opposed to just some vague Infinity stone-based energy projection. ![]() Lashing out with her new power she consciously and unconsciously attacked the Avengers, raising some from the dead, blowing up others and generally causing chaos (and an alien invasion).ĭoctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) Disney / Marvel Studios ![]() This meant that growing up, Wanda was able to innately control Chaos Magic, combining with her natural mutant abilities of energy manipulation to allow her create simple “hexes” and “hex-bolts” and later growing to be more sophisticated with tutoring from Agatha Harkness (who is a LOT nicer in the comics).Īnyway, this magic later got Wanda into trouble as the mental strain of controlling it (combined with Wanda remembering her lost children, who had previously been wiped from her memory) caused her to have a nervous breakdown. Unfortunately, that mountain later became the birthplace of a certain Wanda Maximoff, who a surviving version of Chthon infected with a little piece of the magic. Used by the Elder God Chthon to rule the Earth as “God of Chaos,” the magic was sealed away when Chthon was defeated by a group of Mages, who spread the rumour that Chaos magic wasn’t real and sealed all traces of it inside a mountain. Within the world of Marvel comics, Chaos Magic is an extremely powerful form of magic capable of manipulating, warping and reconstructing the fabric of existence, with the potential to bring destruction to the cosmos – sound familiar?
