MCU: 10 Supernatural Characters Who Will DOMINATE Phase 5

One of the bigger questions to dominate WandaVision revolved around the fate of Wanda Maximoff's two children, Tommy and Billy.

Wanda created her children using a combination of her own chaos magic and the mind stone, and even though Vision was shown to disintegrate outside of the Hex, viewers held out hope that Tommy and Billy would make it through and emerge on the other side as Speed and Wiccan, two key members of the Young Avengers in the comics.

Of course, WandaVision ended a little more tragically than that. Tommy and Billy disappeared along with Vision once Wanda destroyed the Hex, offering a slight twist on the even grimmer fate that befalls them in the comics (where Mephisto absorbs them back into his soul). However, the series also ended on a glimmer of hope for Wanda, showing her reading the Darkhold and hearing the voices of her children crying out for her.

Tommy and Wiccan were both reincarnated in the comics and would rediscover their relation to Wanda, but it remains to be seen how things will play out in the MCU. One would expect Wanda's search for her two sons to be a key element in the Multiverse of Madness, and given how the MCU looks set to assemble its own version of the Young Avengers in upcoming projects, their chances of returning are really positive.

Of the two sons though, only one is supernatural, and that's Billy, who becomes the superhero Wiccan in the comics. Wiccan is a mystic just like his mother, and an iconic gay character of the Marvel universe. An older version of the character would be a great fit for the MCU going forward.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
