The official episode count of WandaVision<\/strong><\/em>, the first Marvel <\/strong>series to premiere on Disney+<\/strong> has finally been confirmed. The series was last reported to likely have a six episode season, or possibly move up to eight episodes like the wildly popular Disney+ show The Mandalorian<\/strong><\/em>. It has now been confirmed by Marvel Studios <\/strong>themselves that the series will have a nine-episode season. With the upcoming series being described as half comedy-sitcom, half classic Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/strong> spectacle, there’s a lot to be excited for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With most of the plot being successfully kept under wraps, the show is scheduled to premiere on January 15th. Following The Mandalorian’s<\/em> lead, by releasing just one episode a week until it finishes up on March 12th, a week before the premiere of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier<\/strong><\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“WandaVision<\/em>, the first Marvel Studios series created exclusively for Disney+, stars Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff, Paul Bettany as Vision, Kathryn Hahn as Agnes, and Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau, who was introduced to audiences in Captain Marvel<\/em>…Kat Dennings will reprise her role as Darcy from Thor<\/em> and Thor: The Dark World<\/em>, and Randall Park will reprise his role as Jimmy Woo from Ant-Man and The Wasp<\/em>.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Quoted from the Marvel press release Monday, the series looks to be the first of several high concept, high budget MCU<\/strong> shows coming to Disney+ in the very near future. Besides The Falcon and The Winter Soldier<\/em>, we can also expect Loki<\/strong><\/em>, Hawkeye<\/strong><\/em>, Ms. Marvel<\/strong><\/em>, and the animated What If…?<\/strong><\/em> mini-series to all premiere at some point throughout 2021. Along this beefy slate of television shows, we are also being treated four feature-length MCU films including Shang-Chi and The Legend Of The Ten Rings<\/strong><\/em>, Spiderman 3<\/em><\/strong> (untitled), Eternals<\/strong><\/em>, and the delayed Black Widow<\/strong><\/em> solo outing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With very little known about that actual storyline, this can be a exciting surprise for the fans, potentially reigniting some hype around future MCU projects that took a sharp hit in 2020 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Marvel also released a new one minute teaser trailer (below) for the show, really showcasing the weirdness surrounding everything thats happening around them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
