Fans holding out hope forWandaVisionseason 2 may want to temper expectations. Though that doesn’t mean hope needs to be abandoned altogether. Marvel head Kevin Feige recently commented on the possibility of continuing the show during a Q&A session at the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour. For now at least, the Disney+ series is going to be a one-and-done.
During the Q&A,Kevin Feigeaddressed the possibility ofWandaVisionseason 2. While there are no current plans, the executive said “I’ve been at Marvel too long to say a definite no or yes to anything, in regards to another season of WandaVision.” He then added that Elizabeth Olsen “will go from WandaVision to the Doctor Strange film.” Feige is referring toDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the upcoming sequel that is currently filming. It has been known for some time that Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch will factor into the movie, though the nature of her role remains mysterious. The movie’s plot, for that matter, remains tightly under wraps for the time being.
These new live-action MCU shows onDisney+tie heavily and directly into the movies. That was not the case with previous Marvel Television endeavors such asAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.That being the case, and because the MCU is a large, interconnected beast, a season 2 might not always make sense. Those stories may continue elsewhere. That seems to be the case withWandaVision. However, Kevin Feige did say that some shows will indeed be getting more than one season.
“The fun of theMCUis obviously all the crossover we can do between series, between films. So it will vary based on the story. Sometimes it will go into a season 2, sometimes it will go into a feature and back into a series. Sometimes, and yet to be announced, we’re thinking of and planning second seasons for some of the upcoming series.”
Kevin Feige concluded his thoughts on the topic saying, “Maybe someday, we’ll chart out five seasons of a show. But we’re focusing on delivering seasons the best we can, one at a time, so far.” All of this, ultimately, in a roundabout way, meansWandaVisionseason 2 is not currently in the cards. But never say never.
