Fans who have watched Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame will know that, spoiler alert, Vision is one of the main characters who sadly remains dead after the Avengers manage to bring back half of the universe's population.

It's Marvel as you've never seen it
There are no crazy fight scenes or mind-boggling futuristic weapons here. Instead, WandaVision is set out like a television set, and was even filmed in front of a live studio audience! It also goes through plenty of sitcom genres, so prepare yourselves.
WandaVision is about grief
Chatting to The Guardian, Elizabeth revealed that the show is about grief. She said: "I think it’s about grief and coming to terms with one’s life and trauma. And processing." While this could be about Vision dying in real life, Wanda has had a difficult time of things throughout the series, so who knows?
