(ANSA) - ROME, 10 JAN - "WANDAVISION is a love letter for the golden age of television. A tribute to all those incredible series of the past and to the people who came before us, but it is also an attempt to open a new territory ": word of the screenwriter Jac Schaeffer.
There is no better synthesis to define WandaVision, the first original Marvel Studios series that will arrive on Disney + from January 15 and of which three episodes have been proposed in advance.
In fact, WandaVision is in perfect balance between the Sixties, full of women just out of the vintage, very curvy hairdresser and toaster, and the Marvel Cinematic universe from which Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany) derive powers that seem totally out of tune in leading idealized lives, trying to settle in with the equally dapper neighbors in the perfect residential neighborhood where they live.
But something that perhaps comes from the future or the past slowly shows that around them there is something very distant and different from the paradise in which they live.
The fact is that Vision, born of the union between the Mind Stone and Thor's lightning bolt, is a particular human being who has synthetic organs and a gem set in his forehead that allows him not to eat and drink and to emit rays from his eyes, while Wanda Maximoff is a full-fledged witch who manages to control people's minds and be a perfect housewife, orchestrating supplies and cooking at the command of her mind.
The nine-episode series, shot as a true audience-facing sitcom, is directed by Matt Shakman and written by JacSchaeffer.
