What to See after Wanda Vision

What to See after Wanda Vision

Westview is over and we have picked out the films to watch after Wonder Vision. Fortunately, Disney Plus is an important way to see most of the films we chose.

For starters, you'll want to go back to some of the better MCU films to see them where the cast of Wondervision first appeared on film. Yes, for those who haven't had a full MCU marathon recently, most of Wanda Vision's main and supporting cast members made their first appearances in previous films. Plus, it has some of the best Marvel programming not found on Disney Plus.

And if you're looking for a next-level TV show that deals with grief and loss, there's a perfect fit. Finally, those who want to see more of Elizabeth Olsen will turn to The Social Network to learn more about the outstanding talent behind Wanda's vision.

If only Wanda Vision were stranger, darker, and more mysterious. Dive into the three seasons of Legion, the FX series about what happens when mutants are trapped in a psych ward, and you'll find such a show. Legion focuses on David Haller (Dan Stevens), a young man with a long-standing mental illness.

David eventually meets people with special powers and eventually unravels his backstory. Like Wanda Maximoff, David has significant connections to mutants who are important to the comic book world as a whole. Aubrey Plaza also plays one of David's friends. For more mutant TV dramas, Marvel's "Runaways" is also on Hulu.

And as for where to start in the MCU, let's look back to when Wanda and Vision first connected. Surely, you can hear people shouting that I'm skipping "Age of Ultron," the film in which Wanda and Pietro made their debut. The film has its defenders, but we're not going to steer you to the wrong corner of the MCU canon - "Age of Ultron" is simply not that good.

Captain America: Civil War, on the other hand, is a legitimately great movie, and how Wanda and Vision's relationship began was revealed in a series of flashbacks in Wanda Vision Episode 8. How Wanda and Vision's relationship began was revealed in a series of flashbacks in Episode 8. And now that we know more about their sad and bitter story and the love that binds them together, we will want to see more of that beginning here.

"Captain America: Civil War" is now available on Disney Plus

Of course, you'll also want to see the sad story of how Vision died. Yes, as we all know by now, the Vision that Wanda lived with in Westview was not real, but a figment made from her body. In "Avengers: Infinity War," we get a second look at the sacrifices Wanda and Vision made for humanity in the first half of the big finale of MCU Phase 3 (we've all seen this). And sadly, how futile it was.

You might want to watch Avengers again: you might want to watch Avengers/Endgame again, but it doesn't really matter. Sure, there is a moment of mourning between Wanda and Hawkeye, but that scene is more about the latter than the former.

"Avengers": Infinity War is now available on Disney Plus

If you're thinking, "Who is this amazing Darcy Lewis? Now is the time to stream "Thor. Lewis (Kat Dennings) is Dr. Jane Foster's assistant, an astrophysicist who meets the Norse god of thunder. While Chris Hemsworth's hail-fellow energy is fun, it is Dennings who brings the real laughs to the film. Her pronunciation of Mjolnir (Thor's hammer) alone makes the film worth watching.

Darcy also appears in Thor: The Dark World, but she is one of the weaker MCU films. Her comic relief is not enough to save her from a low spot in anyone's power rankings. Nevertheless, "Thor" is not even the best "Thor" movie.

FBI agent James E. "Jimmy" Wu is played to perfection by Randall Park in "Wander Vision," but the character is even better if you saw his first appearance in "Ant-Man and the Wasp." In this film, he is trying to make sure that Scott Lang is not breaking the house arrest order that stemmed from Ant-Man's work with the Avengers in "Civil War" (see, it's all connected).

"Ant-Man and the Wasp" is a pretty good movie and well worth seeing, but it also reveals why director Woo is so obsessed with magic tricks in Wondervision. Yes, his need to learn card tricks and remove his handcuffs stems from Scott Lang's claim that he was performing magic to entertain his daughter while under house arrest.

Teyonah Parris impressed audiences as Monica Rambo in "Wander Vision," but this is not the first time we have seen this character in the MCU. Captain Marvel" marks the debut of the Rambo family, with her mother Maria Rambo (Lashana Lynch) playing an important role as Carol Danvers' friend, a fighter pilot who helps Captain Marvel. Yes, the film is meandering in its structure, but it is more than worth it to understand the connection between the Rambo family and the MCU.

"Captain Marvel" is also essential to understanding the mid-credit scene in Wandervision episode 9, where the aliens approach Monica in the movie theater. Watching "Captain Marvel" will help you distinguish between the Skrulls and the Kree and which side you should support.

Jessica Jones is the part of the Marvel show no one talks about anymore, but fans of Wanda Vision will no doubt be excited about Ms. Jones, even if they have yet to meet her. Like Westview's Wanda, Jessica has a mighty power in her hands, but it seems that the mysteries about her own life cannot be defeated by brute force.

And while Agatha has tried to trick Wanda into taking her power throughout the series, Jessica is tortured and manipulated by someone far meaner. Kilgrave (David Tennant) is the evil at the rotten core of Jessica Jones, but he doesn't see it that way.

"Jessica Jones" is available on Netflix

Well, that's (almost) all the Marvel you need to see now that you've completed Wanda and Vision's latest journey in the MCU. Now let me introduce you to something similar, but very different. The Leftovers is one of the best TV shows of its generation and should be on this list because, while it has no superhero or comic book connection, it tackles the major topic of Wanda Vision better than any other show. Be aware, however, that it is TV-MA designated, so it is not for younger viewers like Billy and Tommy Maximoff.

A supremely dark meditation on grief, The Leftovers is about what happens after a rapture-like event: 140 million humans suddenly disappear and the rest of society is stuck dealing with it all on Earth, much like Thanos' It is similar to a buzzkill. The show is anchored by a strong performance by Justin Theroux as Kevin Garvey, a Mapleton, NY police officer who has a lot of frustration associated with this event known as "the sudden departure."

"The Leftovers" is on HBO Max

There is something about Elizabeth Olsen and her characters who experience much grief. In this two-season series, she plays Lee Shaw, a fitness instructor who quit her job as an advice columnist after the shocking death of her husband.

She co-stars with Kelly Marie Tran ("Star Wars: The Last Jedi," "Raya and the Last Dragon") as Jules, Lee's adopted daughter who works at the same gym (owned by her mother) as Lee.

The series has received generally positive reviews for its mix of sadness and moderate humor. You may not have heard of it, as it is distributed on a less-used platform: Facebook Watch

"Sorry For Your Loss" is available on Facebook Watch
