'WandaVision' is churning out the shocks with every episode and the latest was a mindblowing one. Vision (Paul Bettany) has realized that Wanda is controlling their little world of Westview and the two almost get into an altercation, except...Pietro returns. Yes, it isn't the Pietro from the Marvel films, it is the Pietro (Evans Peters) from the X-Men fox franchise.

It was a completely shocking reveal and fans are dumbfounded. In the real world, Darcy summarises what we are all thinking: Wanda (Elizabeth Olsen) recast Pietro in her absurd reality? What next? Fans are sure that this means several exciting cameos are yet to follow.

One fan tweeted, "By "recasting" Pietro, it means Magneto is coming. Dr Strange probably too, but McKellen's Magneto surely should appear too. #WandaVision." Another fan wrote, "WHAT GHE FUCKFND ITS PIETRO #WandaVision." Others are wondering whether Thanos's "blip" is bringing the X-Men back. "The conversion is done! The blip brought forth the Fantastic Four and the X-Men. Welcome back Pietro! #WandaVision #pietro@wandavision," one asked.

However, others wanted the original Pietro, played by Aaron-Taylor Johnson to return, and didn't want to accept this Pietro. "NO AARON TAYLOR JOHNSON = NO PIETRO MAXIMOFF. #WandaVision #wandamaximoff #Thevision," a fan wrote. Others hope that the real one is hiding somewhere. "#WandaVision SPOILERS SO IF SHE RECAST PIETRO ?? MARVEL WHERE ARE U HIDING HIM I KNOW HES THERE," one wrote. 



 



 



 



 



 

Things have spun out of control in 'WandaVision', as SWORD in the real world is trying to reach Wanda, who wants nothing to do with them. It is heavily hinted that she walked off with Vision's corpse and is controlling him, something even he, has realized. For Wanda, her little suburban world is perfect, with Vision, her children, and even a dog.

She knows her reality is fragile, but she doesn't want to accept the heartbreaking truth: Vision died, after being killed by Thanos in 'Avengers: Infinity War'. This is an explosion of her grief and it remains to be seen what this new Pietro is going to bring to the story. Fans are in shock over this episode and believe that the following Disney Plus shows 'Loki' and 'The Falcon And The Winter Soldier' have a lot to live up to.

'WandaVision' airs on Disney+ every Friday.
