WandaVision Episode 8 Breakdown - Source Of Wanda's Powers Revealed
1. Can SWORD's Vision Be Saved By Wanda?
Other Vision couldn’t leave the Hex because he’s been created by Wanda, but this one was created outside so he has that freedom. Is there any way that this could have a happy ending?
If Wanda was able to lend some of her mojo to this carbon-copy vision, is there any way she would be able to restore him to a close enough semblance of what he was before?
Essentially all that this replica is missing is the mind-stone and (we assume) his memories and personality. He’s still the powerful creation he was before: made of vibranium, super speedy and strong, powered by chaos magic sourced from inside the Hex. The problem is obviously that he’s in the control of director dick, Hayward, but surely we can overcome that!
It’s worth a quick mention at this point that people are thinking that the huge guest star that has been teased for so long is actually just Paul Bettany himself starring as white vision. It makes sense if you look at what he’s been saying: it’s a character that hadn’t yet been revealed, it’s certainly an actor that he’s known all his life, et cetera. I’m not sure I’m convinced but if it turns out to be true then Bettany has played us all, big time.
But before we all go and get excited about the potential for Vision to continue existing outside the Hex, we best not forget Billy and Tommy and what all this means for them. It’s all well and good, the idea that Wanda and Vision could maybe leave Westview and go about their lives- but it very much seems that Billy and Tommy won’t be able to do the same- they were created in the Hex and the hex is where they’ll stay…
