The series, which premiered first footage during Super Bowl LIV in February, was expected for fall 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic forced Marvel to shut down production with just “two or three weeks” remaining, according to returning Captain America trilogy star Sebastian Stan. WandaVision, reuniting Avengers stars Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany in a reality influenced by classic sitcoms, will be the first Marvel Studios series to release on Disney+.
