Now that’s gonna be a long wait, but at least now I’ve got certainty. On the bright site, if shooting really starts this fall already, then there must be tons of work on the special effects. We will certainly see more than just Wanda and Vision having a suburban live! Also I am really happy that it is announced that MCU-Wanda will get her designation “Scarlet Witch”.
I might overuse the phrase here, but a Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch team-up movie, that’s again a dream come true to me!
It’s only that now 2020 looks like a desert that needs to be crossed. I hope there will be something, more additions of her character in computer games, maybe finally in animated series again. Yet I thought there will be a big void several times by now, and then always there was FanArt, interviews with Lizzy, even some bits and pieces in the comics, to carry me through.
Actually that would be fine by me. Better than her creating a mess (for real that was a certain writer of course), characters left sitting around in that mess while she vanishes for years and the hatred on her by a certain fanbase keeps growing with no limits. So yeah, if she redeems herself right away, and that in an awesome team-up story, definitely better than how it went down in the comics, I think.
I, as usual blindly and over optimistically see WandaVision directly tying into DS2 being a chance for Elder Gods lore.
My blind faith tells me that they will try to build a interconnected and deep mystical lore starting from those two, I mean Chthon and Vishanti(Oshtur) are a decent start as in being opposing forces/deities.
(Good god versus evil god, simple enough for casual audience as well I guess)
There is also the fact that they are making a Blade movie, and they will have to explain the existence of Vampires, and Chthon/Darkhold can come in to build up that lore as well.
Eternals also holds immense potential for lore building, namely the concept of Human Offshoot.
I had the same reaction, and also "what if she's the villain of the film?" We are so paranoid, which is understandable, except we were also paranoid that she wouldn't be in another big movie and that turned out to be wrong.
There may be some House of M-ish stuff going on but that's different from doing to her in the movies what they did in the comics.

Honestly it just felt extra tiring when there is genuinely good news for Wanda and you still get the usual "OMG, OMG, is Wanda going to be evil/crazy/villainous in DS2?"
Even with the show directly tying into DS2, Marvel would still make sure it can be understood by casual audience.
So really WandaVision would be the work to help you understand the story better but not required for basic understanding.
So really, I think she is just gonna be the girl who has already seen some serious magic shit put into even more Elderitch magic shit. (WandaVision explains why she is reacting in a certain way, etc.)
And I really hope 2021 would be a turning point for fans in terms of what to expect from Wanda.
It is Beyond Honestly Understanding and Right to be concerned about the well-being of Wanda whenever she is used, espically if their is even a HINT of Re-Usage of Past Bad experiences like Dissembles and HoM.
But Much like Captain America: Civil War the MCU has a way of taking Comic Stories that where Very Bad and Controversial for characters in the comics and making them both complex and even positive for the MCU characters. I think both Disney and the MCU are willing to Push the Bounds of Complex and Even Darker storytelling but still are not willing to go Negative with Characters to much since they are making Much Buck/$$$$$ having a Majority Positive views on their MCU Characters.
So While I DON'T Think at all this is a worry to have, it is Good to be Majority Positive but Vigilante. I suggest that with All Comic Book Fans and their Characters, we are not different.
But it is Good to Keep our LOVE and Positive Hopes on the + Side of this, This News about The Wanda and Vision Show having DIRECT LINKS to the Doctor Strange Movie is the ~~~~~
~~~~~BEST, BEST, BEST, BEST News We could Hope for and the Hoping we get a Journey Into Wanda being Revived to Have Magic based Powers, Her Getting her Name of Scarlet Witch being Officially Given to her in the MCU and Maybe even Her Iconic Headdress and New Costume to Name a Few!
It is Allot to Dream but we take what we can and be Glad we get as much of the Glass-Full as we Can, but what Postives we get we should always celebrate and appreciate the best we can as Wanda Fans!
Wanda Fans are the Best at what we do and that is Loving our Lady in Read! ;-)

Maybe Wanda will mess up and need Strange's help. But I doubt she's gonna go mad or evil or anything.
Is it too much to ask that she not do another mess up in the MCU? They already had the thing with Crossbones. I want it to be like a catalyst for more magic or magic being expanded on. I'd prefer Wanda found out something is bad about magic or something and need Doctor Strange's help, than her messing up.
Love is for souls, not bodies.
