Today we are sharing some rumors around Vision and Wanda’s current status in the MCU and the wider Multiverse. This latest Barside Buzz comes from TCC who have a good hit rate for Marvel scoops and leaks. There is much debate and confusion from MCU fans over Wanda’s current fate. Is she dead, when she will return, and how? The insider site therefore goes into any and all information they have heard from sources on Wanda. We will cover Vision next, though there is a lot less information on Vis from this source. I.e. It’s less Vision and more Wanda’s current status in the MCU we’ll be looking at.
Wanda – 616
This is the version of Wanda who destroyed the Darkhold across the Multiverse. Wanda destroyed Mount Wundagore and seemingly herself at the end of Multiverse of Madness. According to the outlet, Wanda isn’t still trapped under that rubble. However, she is alive instead in some kind of stasis within The Witches Road. This fact may be referenced within Agatha: Coven of Chaos. It is not however, likely to feature in the SP prequel The Witches Road.
“Sources have informed us that Wanda Maximoff is currently in a dormant state at the end of The Witches’ Road. The Witches’ Road is an alternate dimension within the borders of the known universe. It is similar to that of the Mirror Dimension or the Dark Dimension.”
“According to sources, fans can expect this particular plane of existence to be first introduced in the upcoming Agatha: Coven of Chaos series. Followed by a potential special based on the location, which would premiere following the conclusion of Coven of Chaos. This “Witches’ Road” special, we’ve been told, would be similar to the Werewolf By Night special presentation in terms of tone and loose connectivity to the main MCU storyline.”
‘Sources have stated that the Scarlet Witch will not physically appear in the previously stated projects.’
Wanda – 838
Wanda and her Daddy versus Deadpool and Wolverine?
‘According to sources, there is a particular interest from Marvel to explore further the 838 universe established in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. These same sources have informed us about a return to Earth-838 in the upcoming Deadpool and Wolverine film, with a potential setup to the universe’s status coming in a project later this year.’
‘The idea of Earth-838 appearing in the upcoming Deadpool and Wolverine film would be to display how the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness affected that world following the death of the Illuminati. That, in turn, left a massive power vacuum that threw the entire world into disarray. In this idea, Earth-838 would now be a dystopian future led by a handful of individuals related to the deceased members of the former Illuminati. They would deem what Doctor Strange and Wanda Maximoff did as an act of war against 838 and seek to retaliate.’

‘Now, how would Wanda-838 fit into all of this? According to sources, one of those who took up power following the fall of the Illuminati would be Sir Ian McKellen‘s Magneto from Earth-838. It will be established that Magneto-838 has a father-daughter relationship with Wanda-838. However, it is yet to be confirmed if he’ll be the biological father or if he will take her in as his own following what happened to 838?’
‘Nevertheless, he will assume the role of her guardian and protector. By the time Deadpool and Wolverine rolls out, Magneto will be a member of this world’s new Illuminati, with Wanda at his side. Sources have drawn a parallel to the relationship between Ian McKellen‘s Magneto and Famke Janssen’s Jean Grey/Phoenix during X-Men: The Last Stand as an example of what to expect from the Magneto/Wanda pairing, should it come to pass in this upcoming film.’
Wanda Movie
The outlet goes on to say what they’ve heard about a possible Wanda movie.
‘Our sources can confirm that ideas for the project do exist. Some sources have gone beyond and corroborated the premise of the film. Stating it is a loose adaptation of the 2016 Scarlet Witch comic run, with certain elements of the Children’s Crusade being thrown into the mix to create their own MCU story. This project, should it come to fruition, would serve as a conclusion to the storyline that was started in WandaVision.‘
Finally, What’s happening with Vis?
VisionQuest
VisionQuest is in active development, or was before the strike. However, here are some latest details on what you might expect from the series when it happens.
‘Sources have informed us that the VisionQuest story would feature a loose adaptation of Tom King’s The Vision comic run, with appearances from Vision’s synthezoid family: Virginia, Viv, and Vin. (This has been rumored for some time as well.)’
‘Now, in the comics, Virginia, Vision’s new synthezoid wife, was modeled using the brainwaves of Wanda Maximoff. However, it remains to be seen whether this part of Virginia’s character will be adapted in the upcoming show.’
Ergo, we kinda have no idea whether Wanda is actually involved within VisionQuest or not? As the outlet said, this has been a rumor ever since VisionQuest materialized.
Well, what do you think of the rumors around Vision and Wanda’s current status in the MCU? As always, share any thoughts below.
