Paul Bettany may have underestimated Marvel fans’ obsession with theorizing. The “WandaVision” star didn’t realize that a joke he made teasing an actor he’s “always wanted to work with” would be taken a bit too seriously.
In January, Bettany teased an appearance that hadn’t been spoiled by anyone on the internet.
“So many things get leaked, but there’s this thing that has been completely under wraps that happens and I work with this actor that I’ve always wanted to work with and we have fireworks together,” he told the Lights Camera Barstool podcast (via The Playlist). “The scenes are great, and I think people are going to be really excited. I’ve always wanted to work with this guy and the scenes are pretty intense.”

What would follow is the aforementioned House of M scenario in which Wanda would attempt to recreate her children, but instead create the entire mutant race.
It has also been theorised that Agatha’s arrival in the MCU will spark the beginning of the next Doctor Strange movie - Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.
With
WandaVision reviving everyone’s love of vintage sitcoms, we decided it was time to take a closer look at the genre. This week’s
Behind the Seams video delves into the history of sitcom fashion, beginning with black-and-white shows like
I Love Lucy, and covering sitcoms like The Brady Bunch, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Friends, and

That’s why vintage sitcoms often look so rooted in a specific era and why they’re a great choice for a genre-savvy homage like
