WANDAVISION: [SPOILER]'s Comic Accurate Costume Is Easily The Coolest Thing You'll See Today

Today's episode of WandaVision was another winner, and there's one moment, in particular, fans of the comic books will definitely appreciate. Take a look after the jump, but be warned of major spoilers...

We got to spent quite a bit of time with Pietro in today's episode of WandaVision, and as of right now, the signs are all pointing to him being the real deal... albeit with a new face. 

Marvel Studios certainly kept us guessing, with Pietro seemingly aware of how he died (and providing a compelling explanation for his return), but dodging Wanda's questions about their childhood. He might be a random Westview resident forced into the role, an inhabitant of another world, or even the real Quicksilver in a new body. If it's the latter, that's a very clever way to recast the speedster.

Regardless, Evan Peters did a phenomenal job in the role, and seeing him don that comic accurate Halloween costume - hair and all - was an undeniable highlight of this week's instalment.

He wasn't the only one, of course, as Tommy and Billy were also decked out in costumes which had a striking resemblance to what Speed and Wiccan wear as members of the Young Avengers. For most fans, however, it will be Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch's costume that leaves a lasting impact. 

Take a look at these spoiler stills from WandaVision below:

for WandaVision's own Luke Skywalker-sized cameo!

5. The Original Quicksilver

At the end of last week's episode of WandaVision, we learned that Wanda (or someone...) had "recast" Pietro. Playing Wanda's long-lost brother was Evan Peters, the actor best known for starring as Quicksilver in Fox's X-Men movies. Look online, and you'll find plenty of theories about him. 

Some believe it's Pietro's "spirit" in a new body, while others have argued this is just a random Westview resident forced to play Wanda's brother. The most compelling theory, however, is that he's secretly Mephisto, and is only there to manipulate the Scarlet Witch and stop her leaving this reality.

Regardless, we honestly wouldn't be surprised if Aaron Taylor-Johnson makes his surprise return as the real Quicksilver. If Wanda fully embraces her reality altering powers in the finale, then she could bring the real deal back from the dead, proving that there are no limits to her powers (and, despite what she told Billy and Tommy, the Scarlet Witch is powerful enough to break the rules).
 

4. Mojo

293829321324r132331334

Even assuming Mephisto isn't responsible for what's happening in Westview, it's still safe to assume that "Agnes" will be revealed as Nightmare (likely combined with Agatha Harkness). 

The ruler of the Dream Dimension clearly wants to get her hands on the twins for some sort of sinister reason, but what's the deal with the sitcoms? Well, that could be explained with the introduction of Mojo. His race was driven insane by television signals from Earth, and he loves creating his own entertainment...so, what if Nightmare was forced to turn to him for help here? 

She might not be powerful enough to trap Wanda in a setting where she can be easily manipulated, hence why Mojo was necessary to create a sitcom world, and provide the necessary technology. This would be a weird direction to take things down, but Marvel Studios might be able to pull it off!

If nothing else, he might be shown tuning in...
 

3. Spider-Man (Not That Spider-Man)

293829321324r132331334

Despite what Tom Holland says, the signs do appear to be pointing to Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield being part of Spider-Man 3. Plus, with Sam Raimi at the helm of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the prevailing theory is that the Sorcerer Supreme will team up with Maguire's Spidey.

Don't forget, Sony Pictures has agreed to allow Marvel Studios to use Spider-Man in at least one more MCU movie, but who said it had to be the version played by Holland? 

So, if the Scarlet Witch is responsible for tearing a hole in the Multiverse, it's feasible we'll get our first look at Maguire's world, and Strange will need to enlist his Spider-Man's help to get this one back to his world. Perhaps this will take too much time, but if nothing else, a glimpse to tease Spider-Man 3 would work!
 

2. The Beyonder

293829321324r13233133433

If it's not Mephisto pulling the strings, then there's another possibility (and one who could be used to lay the groundwork for Phase 4/Phase 5's new big bad). Just like Thanos was introduced in The Avengers' post-credits scene, The Beyonder could appear in WandaVision's stinger. 

Revealing he was responsible for twisting reality and creating those sitcoms, the stage would be set for an even bigger clash down the line...Secret Wars! Avengers: Endgame directors Joe and Anthony Russo are keen to make that a reality (no pun intended), and a being as powerful as The Beyonder could explain both the Multiverse madness and the introduction of the X-Men.

A slow-burn approach to this debut would be sensible, but some sort of tease in the WandaVision finale - with an A-Lister playing the villain - would be nothing short of mind-blowing for comic book fans.
 

1. Magneto

293829321324r1323313343

How cool would this be? 

There was a fake leak about Magneto appearing in WandaVision, but the iconic comic book character arriving to claim his daughter (similar to the end of Avengers Disassembled) would be one heckuva twist, teasing a secret origin story for Wanda Maximoff and the arrival of mutants. 

If they've been hiding out in the shadows all this time, then it makes perfect sense for Magneto to make his presence felt, taking his mutant daughter back to Krakoa or wherever the mutants call home.

We'd lose our minds if Michael Fassbender plays Erik, and that could tie nicely into whatever is going on with the Multiverse (similar to Evan Peters returning as Quicksilver). Time will tell, but it would be a big mistake not to explore Wanda's history as a mutant and with her father, Magneto.

Loving Evan as Pietro.

Every time they mention mom and dad I'm wishing for them to drop a Magneto bomb but it's all good.

What happens to Darcy?

I'm assuming Vision is really DEAD?

@TheRationalNerd - I think we’re finally going to see why she has those symbols on her chest in the posters

Evan Peters was really hot? Like I've never been into him before but wow? Hello?

The Vision scene was so hard to watch.

Darcy in Westview? Yes.

Billy and Tommy are already icons.

Give Kathryn Hahn her Emmy already.

Yea he's definitely not Pietro. They kept bringing up why he looks different and how Wanda remembers certain past experiences differently.

The scene with Vision coming apart was really tense.

@BlackBeltJones - I’m still not convinced she did it. I think she has been mind wiped or something like that and woke up in a reality with everything that she’s always wanted so she protected it.

I think her talking about feeling lonely then woke up in this that coupled with the commercial lends credence to it in my opinion

@MyCoolYoung - Someone definitely made her an "offer" while she was lonely right after Endgame. Cure your loneliness with your perfect world.

@BlackBeltJones - He remembers being killed by Ultron which suggests he's not the Fox-men Quicksilver, but also he has the bullet wounds when Wanda sees him as a corpse.

His memories are scrambled and he can't seem to remember anything clearly aside from his death. He can't recall basic information from Wanda's childhood, nor is it compatible with the Fox-men Quicksilver. He also seems to know Vision is dead. Last episode he called him a popsicle likely because his face is red, but this episode he references that Vision has already died before which he wouldn't know since MCU Quicksilver died before Vision.

So either he can see Vision as a corpse like Wanda Or it's Mephisto.

At the moment I'm leaning most towards the Mephisto theory based on the "not like your dead husband can die twice" line which seemed unusually cruel even for MCU Quicksilver who was kind of a prick.

@BlackBeltJones - because he's Peter from the fox movies. I really don't see how this is throwing people off. If he's not, then it's pointless for him to even be played by Evan because no one in the mcu even knows about this version of quicksilver.

@Origame - People like you annoy the [frick] out of me.. You fixate on the simplest solution to every problem and are incapable of understanding anything beyond that. Worse yet, you get upset when it turns out you were wrong because "it doesn't make sense". It does make sense.. you're just a [frick]ing idiot.

@Neutronbomb - really? So how is Evan being mephisto supposed to lead into multiverse of madness? Did you forget this is leading into the movie diving into the multiverse? You also clearly didn't ever hear about occams razor.
