The Untold Truth Of WandaVision

One of the most engrossing and creative shows on any streaming platform, WandaVision is a crowd pleaser, even for people new to the MCU. If you want to learn about the magic behind this Marvel series, then prepare for the untold truth of WandaVision.

Marvel has been dominating television for decades. Dating back to the days of the 1960s Spider-Man cartoon and Bill Bixby's The Incredible Hulk, it's been more common to see the spandex-clad Marvel characters on the small screen than it has been to see them on the big screen. But until WandaVision, those TV shows didn't hail from Marvel Studios, the outfit responsible for the movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

For decades, Marvel licensed their characters in film and television out to other studios. That all changed in 2010, when Marvel started their own standalone division, Marvel Television, to tackle small-screen outings for their characters. The likes of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Daredevil were just a few instances of the shows produced by Marvel Television. But despite scoring a number of successes, Marvel Television was shut down in 2019, resulting in the demise of countless popular programs, as well as an unmade animated Howard the Duck series.

The seismic shift was due to the company's new focus on Marvel Studios-produced television programs made specifically for the Disney+ streaming service. The first show in that initiative? WandaVision, the first in a new era of Marvel television.
